long story short, just instaaled a new call logger for 911 in the fire house which only works for analog. they wanted to keep 911 as a secondary line on their 3903 so they can still see who is calling, but i wanted to disable that key from being picked up to make them answer the analog wall phone, because the logger wont record if its picked up on the digital.
How about making the line(s) on the 3903 a PVR that is built from an analog TN with DN 3903.
Now you can let them use the digital phone, but it is being fed by analog TN(s) backed into trunk cards and programmed as PVRs
If you wanted to get the caller ID, you will need to upgrade to a 3904 or 2616 so you can place the 911 DN on a non-hardware add-on module. Set the CLS as TDD and they will see the caller ID but will not be able to answer it on pure digital. They will answer it on the PVR appearance.
I think you have to have a special card to get CID on analog sets - along with the appropriate switch loads. Pretty expensive option if I recall back when we decided it wasn't worth it....
Get a digital to analog converter to provide an analog output of the 3903 voice.
That way you can ditch the analog phone line.
Two suggestions:
EDAC from Citel
PBX --> Analog TN --> Loop through voice logger --> Trunk Card --> PRDN --> Digital set w/PVR key, CLS TDD, AOM=1, first AOM key with DN of the Analog TN
M2008 w/displays are dirt cheap - put those up where you need phones instead of analog phones.
If you need a few 2008's shoot me your address via PM I think I can scare up a few. I haven't forgotten how tough it is to get stuff through "normal" channels when the base never has budget for anything.....don't miss that a bit to ne honest!
