Good day!
I occasionally have to check all the paging speakers (70 volt connected to a MiVoice 250 via the paging port.) It would be very helpful to have a DID/TN which would go to the paging port. Having a DID/TN for a page port would allow me to test the speakers by calling from my cell.
I have tried to set an extension in the call routing table, but it says select a device when I enter the page zone (9600), page port (91000.) I have also tried forwarding a phantom, and creating a CRA to send a call to the paging system.
Anyone have a workaround? Am I missing something right in front of my face?
Thanks,
Jeff

Try programming a DID with DISA as the ring-in destination. Call the DID, then enter the page zone extension number when you hear DISA dial tone.

DND ON,
Thanks for the ideas and your time!
I changed the TN/DID to DISA and was able to dial outside lines and extensions. However when I dialed the page extension, I heard four "beeps" then the steady dial tone returned. I was able to dial an extension after the steady dial tone returned. Not sure what is happening.
DISA is something the company hasn't used, and I didn't have to dial a password, yikes. I changed the DISA back to single in the Call Routing Table and read the manual a bit. DISA would take a bit more reading and configuration for it to be safe.
I did figure out another way to test the paging system. The paging system has a ring tone generator connected to an extension, so I set the TN in the Call Routing Table to the extension for the ring tone generator. It works...
Thanks,
Jeff
