I'm replacing an old Partner system with an IPO. One of my buildings currently has the Partner system with the AT&T PagePac 6 Plus. Page port from Partner connects to PagePac and it has 3 zones. Currently works perfectly fine. I do not have an IP500 at this site, only IP phones (9608G). I've used a SNOM PA-1 successfully in the past where it connects directly to a Bogen amp (no zones). I'm guessing the Snom output is a line level output so it's not working when I connect to the PagePac. I still need to have the ability to use the zones/PagePac. Anyone ever set this up before like this? Do I need another device between the Snom and PagePac? Or can recommend a working and relatively inexpensive solution. Thanks in advance for your assistance.
 
The PagePac6 requires, and the Partner provided, a contact closure during the page interval. You need to add an audio controlled relay to mix. Easiest way would be a Bogen UTI-1, connect from the SNOMs output to the UTI-1's Page Port input, set the switch to VOX, and extend a 1/2 modular cord to the input of the PagePac6, with Green/Red on one of the Audio T/R outputs, and the Black/Yellow on the Com and NO contact terminals.
 
replace the Page Pac, I could get the page to a butt set but it would not work with the PagePac. I shorted the contacts to make it set for page all the time but still no go. I believe it was a low volume issue. Never got it working with the PagePac used a different Bogen Amp.
