We are trying to use a analog station port on a V1 500 to page through Bogen equipment.
The Bogen will not answer, or pick up when attempting to use the station port to call it. Bogen says it needs 60v minimum before it will respond to the IPO.

Before I buy a trunk card for the IPO and do it that way, is there a device to get the 60v that the Bogen PCMTIM requires?

The customer wants to page the overhead and the digital phones at the same time.

Thanks

If you use a proper Bogen amp and use the T/R input and you have set your analog station port to paging then it will just work.

It just rings, and never seizes the Bogen. We tried IVR and standard telephone on the port as well.
 
I have used a 600 ohm resistor across the tip pair on the station port to do this and works great

do you have a shortcode do the dialpaging?
you can't call the extension and then have the system do the work, it needs a shortcode for dialpaging
make one up
*25
dialpaging
EXT of port

that should work

Is there a part number for that, or does Viking make something to do this? Had good luck with their stuff before.

Thanks,
 
And that is making the port a paging, IVR, or standard?

Thanks,
 
you make the paging port a paging port.

IVR you should use if you need a disconnect clear from the system like some fax servers need etc.

Are you using a Feed back eliminator. Bogan has a DFT120 Digital Feedback Terminator that provides a contact closure to the second pins of the RJ-11 to activate the PCMTIM using the P/P port. However the TIM should just answer the ringing Ext. I believe. Just had a battle with one last weekend. The customer had changed connections to the paging system during an upgrade they did their selves.

From your original post description, I would think you probably have too many parts in the first place. To do paging via phones and overhead speakers require the paging device to be on a page port and accessed as part of a paging hunt group. The PCM2000 with a TIM module is the wrong equipment.

As the PCM2000 needs an external amp I have to assume there is one. Depending on what type of amp you have more than likely you need the Bogan WMT1A line matching transformer. This provides the 600 ohm connection and DC isolation that the IPO has to have (or it gives you busy tone), and translates it to either a mic level or line level impedance that the paging amp requires.

Our setup is this:

PCMTIM, then to the right, a PCMCPU with a PCMZPM. We do not have PCM 2000

Bogen TPU 15a AMP

IPO V1 8.1.69

Thanks

Chaz
 
PCM2000 is the system, ie... the combination of those parts. Yours at this point is a 3 zone system.

Gotcha Yes, and the PCMZPM gives us another 3 zones. The Bogen stuff seems to working fine. We connected a single line phone to the trunk port, went off hook, and got 2 beeps, then dialed 01, and paged the test speaker we have in the server room. Works great.

Just so far, have not been able to do that through the IP Office using a station port.
 
Have you checked to make sure the PCMTIM is set to ext not to line?

If a test butt/phone worked then that port is supplying power, the exact opposite of the port you should be connecting to a station port i.e that is for connecting to a systems trunk port :)

the switch on the front needs to be set to Station not to trunk.
Mike
 
Yes, we tried those settings. Bogen mentioned using a line cord from the Avaya that had all 6 pins?? Not necessarily all of them wired, but it likes to see all 6 pins on both ends.
 
Unless you need zone paging you can connect directly to the TPU T/R connections with an analog stn port programmed as a page port. If you get a busy with the dialpage shortcode dialing your page port....you will need a WMT1A or you can try a 600 ohm resistor (feel that resistor in about a week, you might want to wear gloves). Usually I use a transformer, as per the IPO docs.
If you need zone paging and handset w/overhead can't happen.

I will try all the suggestions in the morning, and then update.
