Does anyone know if this conference phone will work properly with a Partner ACS? I have a customer who ordered one for their Magix and it turns out the analog port on a Magix doesn't generate a strong enough signal to ring the phone. I'm wondering if the Partner does. If anyone uses one of these on their Partner I would like to hear how it works. Thanks.
 
We've used successfully on Partner - however we're always initiating the call, so I don't know if the ring will work...

Is it at a location where you can test an inbound call? It can be an internal call-just calling the extension from a Partner phone. If it does work, I may tie the Magix Analog port to a Partner line port and actually hang the MaxAttach off the Partner so it will ring. Thanks in advance.
 
Have you tried the MaxAttach on all analogue ports on the Magix?

I looked at the datasheet for the MaxAttach, but it did not specify the Ringer Equivalence anywhere! You might contact IVCI's tech support and ask them if there are any issues with ringing requirements, and mention that the specs on their datasheets are incomplete...

I've talked with ClearOne's tech support and they sent me their specs. I have tried different/all ports on the 016 Module and it works the same on all ports. I also found another thread from awhile ago that stated the ringer won't work on the Magix system. That's why I was wondering if it would work on the Partner. If so, I could connect it to a PACS and then connect that PACS to the Magix.

I may just split the jack and install a single-line set so atleast that will ring when an inbound call comes in.
 
Is it an Avaya issue or a ClearOne issue?

You could mount a stand alone ringer for that purpose. That would be the simple solution. You would have to try it on a Partner port, since I have never used one. What kind of ringing spec did ClearOne provide? Because as mentioned in my previous post, the datasheet is lacking!

You could also try an external ringer when connecting to a Magix 016 T/R port or a 016 ETR port configured as T/R.
