I have a client that has a BCM 450 with approximately 55 active DN's. When the doorphone has a target of 221, the doorphone will ring and the receptionist will pick up and all works well. However the doorphone is for after hours when reps have client's come to the office. I have put just about everyone in the hunt group (HG01 - 400) and assigned that DN to the target DN in programming and when activating the doorphone nothing happens, no ringing nothing. The extensions are set at "ring only".
Is there a specific number that can be assigned to a Hunt Group? I currently have approximately 54 out of the total number of DN's assigned to the Hunt Group.
Thanks for all suggestions

Yes, maximum is 30

Try using the Chime option instead or aux ringer with paging system.

That was HG DNs not members sorry.

Not sure in this case.

If 221 works then start another group and add a few and test, if works then keep adding just a few and testing until you find it does not work.
Maybe also wait for the BCM to take in the info before testing....maybe it work now that you left lol.

I have it setup at my office BCM50 R6 and a few MICS clients.
I do recall struggling once before but do not recall the system or software version and wonder if there was an issue on one or some software's calling HG's.

We've got 2 BST doorphones ringing a broadcast hunt group with 25 members set to ring only at our office. BCM50r6. Got lots of BCMs and MICSs out there set up the same way. BCM50r3 too.

datajockey make sure group is set as broadcast.
 
I cleared the entire hunt group of all the DN's and then added them back in and it seems to work. Just thought I would let everyone know that the issue seems to be resolved.
Many thanks for the input.
