Kind of a Priority Inquiry here.

Can I use multiple Cap Modules on a single M7324?


I was thinking of Phone Line to Cap, Cap to Cap, Cap to M7324.

Will this work?

I tried it earlier and I seen a whole bunch of arrows on the one of the cap modules only, so i disconnected it.

This other module was programmed with similar extensions that are currently on the single cap. Will this cause problems?

We currently have one cap module installed on the m7324.

Second Question is, Can I unplug a M7100 and plug in a M7324 in its place and add the cap module while having the same extension number and everything?

If i can't plug in 2 caps this is my second solution.

Currently we have more DN's then can fit on the single cap module so I'm trying to figure out a solution to see at a glance who is on our pa system.

The additional CAP has to be wired in order for it to work.

wired as in how??????

I can't just plug it in ? and chain it?

You can have multiple CAPs on a M7324. If I remember right only on the same SAP. Check the manual to be sure.

For your other question about exchanging the M7100 for a M7324, yes, but you'll have to program the M7324 as desired & assign a CAP to it if that's your intent.

You can only have 2 caps per 7324 and there is a maximum per system. Wiring is
1st CAP Power Pair
pin 5 O/W -24 V
pin 2 W/O Gnd

2nd CAP Power Pair
Pin 6 G/W -24 V
Pin 1 W/G Gnd
Depending on wire length you may need two SAPS. If the SAPS is local, you should have no problem!

I'm no wire technician but wow that doesn't make any sense. :p

If i was just to swap the 7100 for a 7324, would that phone have all the preferences as the other.
