    We are trying to interface our existing Valcom paging system with our new 3cx phone system/Patton sn4324 24 port FXS analog gateway. The old phone system had lines running from the paging zone into a Valcom Page Port v-1094a Whenever we define a port on the sn4324 for the new paging zone and...

  6. Overhead Paging - Can We Use Same Code at Multiple Sites?

    We currently have multiple sites. In the world of Cisco, at each site you can dial 88 to go to an overhead paging adapter attached to a Cisco VG. Using Cisco Calling Search Spaces and partitions, it doesn't matter what site you are at - you dial 88 and you get that site's OV head paging...

    Paging

    Hi everyone, so I just got my first install up and running and everything seems to be working fine besides the Paging function. I set a Virtual extension for paging all of the phones in the office so users can let each other know when there is a call for someone. The problem is when they pick up...

    Calls heard through paging

    Have a very strange issue where the customer claims that some calls are being heard over their paging system. Attached is the call in question and the calls before and after. My original thought was what if the paging system (ext 500) was used while this call was in place, could that have...

    Chime while a paging

    I was wondering if you could add a little "chime" on the extension called, just before the call is established so as to inform the person on the extension contacted that someone is about to connect via the "paging" function.

  14. Fanvil Multicast Paging & template spelling error

    So I'm facing the same issue as others have posted here where Multicast paging from a phone assigned to the multicast paging group interrupts itself and puts the page on hold.

    Digital to Analog Adapter for Old Bullhorn System

    So we currently have a client that uses a phone which picks up automatically through an adapter, with the signal then going into another adapter for a bullhorn. The idea is that when they want to make an announcement, they simply call the phone, it answers, and they speak their message. I'm a...

    Paging Recommendation

    We have a potential phone system customer with some specific paging needs. They would like overhead speakers in several classrooms that can be zoned together while also being able to page them individually. An analog system will not work for this I am assuming.

    Multicast Paging on several phone systems we manage worked fine in V15. After the upgrade to V16 it does not function properly. All phones subscribed to the multicast paging group all play the same on-hold music. The only way to stop it is to press end call twice on the initiator phone. This...
