Is anyone using a doorphone with their Definity succesfully? We need the doorphone to be able to dial 4 digit extensions for our employees. The way we want to use it is not as an entry phone, but as an afterhours phone where a guest could come to our door and dial the extension of the person they are trying to reach from the doorphone. We currently have a Minipak that we hard wired to an analog card but it is not dialing extensions internally.

You should be able to use almost any phone.
Just set it up with a cor that is restricted to internal only.
 
We tried that already, but I think its an internal phone programming issue. I was just wondering what doorphones are being used out there that work the way we need them to.

Thanks,

Joel
 
We put an inexpensive wall hung analog set.
On page 3, I set the Hot Line Destination, so that everytime someone picks it up, it dials the main autoattendant. You should be able to do that with your door phone.
 
Thanks, I tried this but for some reason the door phone drops the call. I can hear the auto-attendant pick up the call and then when I try to make a selection, the call drops. We may have to look at a different door phone since this isnt working the way we need it to. Thank you for your help.
