I have a Norstar Door Opening Controller and a Norstar Door Phone hooked up to our Gate. Is there a way for me to control the gate with a cell phone. I would like to call into the system and be able to open the gate. I have a PRI with 100 DID's. Can I assign a target number to the Door Phone and have it answer and then press the number to open the gate? I also have a Bogen 4 zone paging system. I am using all zones at the moment. I thought I might be able to use my paging system.
 
I am not sure what you mean. Correct me if I am wrong. Setup a direct inward system access to my Mics with a trunk card. Then an ata to my bogen on an additional zone card. Then set it up to auto answer on my bogen and use a new zone code.
 
I would still have to get another zone card for my paging system because I am using all 4 zones. Can't I just remove the DOC and go straight to the gate contact?
 
Thank you Curlycord for your help.I did what you said about disa and it worked. I put an ATA on for my paging and used the external page port on my Mics and it worked excellent. The only thing I noticed is that it didn't give me stuttered dial tone. Just straight dial tone. I thought it was the Mics dial tone. But it wasn't. I put my COS password in and it gave me my Mics dial tone. I then dialed *602 and the gate opened. Very cool. Thank You once again on your expert advice.
