phones and speaker simultaneously with an Analog trunk port

[Opie the Phoneman]

Ladies and Gentlemen,

I am installing a new IP office 500 v2 control unit with 1 digital station module and 1 analog trunk module. I am running the latest release of 10.1. I have no analog station ports on this system. I have no combo card or any other cards installed on the control unit. I also have a Bogen UTI1 Universal paging interface connected to Valcom speakers. I can page the phones that are in the main hunt grout (Ext. 200) using dial page via short code *98. I have connected my Bogen UTI1 to an available trunk port. I have it set up as a loop start trunk port in the IP Office and the on the Bogen UTI1. I can successfully page from the speaker using short code *97 that Dials a null to my outbound group ID that my paging port is assigned to, Group #62. Has anyone successfully been able to page the phones and speaker simultaneously with an Analog trunk port? I would use an Analog station port if one were available. But, with the current configuration I have no Analog station ports, not none available, but none whatsoever.

cannot be done, you need to use an extension port for paging to both the speakers and exts.

order a phone 2 or phone 8 card, cheap for the 2 port analog card

What about creating a user with Mobile Twinning to the trunk paging short code?

With 10.1 an Algo SIP Alerter can now be set to auto answer so it's extension can be included in your paging hunt group. Have done this twice and it works great. Need a 3rd party SIP license, and well of course, the Algo SIP Alerter.
