I was recently hired to move a phone system. I noted where all the phones where hooked up and asked what else needed to go, they said a paging system that connected to the PBX. I noted that and asked are you sure there is nothing else. They said that was all they needed. I removed the system from the old location and installed to the new location and beside some very minor issue, all went well. Then they asked where there night time ceiling mounted ringer was. I said you never told me about it so I didn't look for it. I went back to the old locaton, found it, but by that time it was to late to note how it had been connected. I found on this forum that it connects to the pepu1 card on pairs 13(or 38). By my count black and green. I connected the power and the tip and ring as it had been(that part I was able to find on the old system), but when the "night ring" button is pressed, the calls do not ring the speaker. No reprograming of the system has been done other then to make one of the phone units ring.

Does any one know why the ringer will not ring?

sorry if not all my terms are technical, I've been away from pure telco for 2 years. Thanks.

The diagram in my manual shows the bell to be connected to the r-br br-r pair. It looks like the pepu only provides a make/break contact. I have not installed a bell on one of these, I usually program nite ringing over external paging.

would that be red brown? as i said, but out of telco for a bit.

their pager is a 2 way paging system that allows ppl in the back to talk to the ppl in the front no matter where they are in the back warehouse. could that be used to send a ring through? thanks.

The colors are red + brown and brown + red.
Most talk back paging I have seen was done using a co line port. I don't know if it can be done using a pepu card or not. Maybe someone with more experience will jump in. If your paging system is connected thru the pepu card I would think you could activate it through program 78. What I don't know about paging would fill a book so you might want to wait on a 2nd opinion.
Good Luck

The paging system is connected through port 7 on the dku1 card. i assume that's co line. I am unfamilur with the term co line. when the receptionist presses line 7 on her phone, it turns on the paging speaker that has 2 way communinications. the ringer speaker has 2 pairs connected to it. one from power and one from the pepu1 card. If the one from pepu1 card needs to be on red brown pair, then that is all that my problem is. I will try today. Thanks.

You know I am sorry to have to say this but if you unfamilur with CO Line you have no business moving this customers phone system.

But heres your help. The handsfree talkback paging equipment is on a RCOU or RCOS CO Line card. Toshiba's External page port on the PEPU PIOUS or PIOU are not 2 way. For your ring over page you have a Valcom or other type of self amp paging speaker. If it is a Valcom 1030C the red green pair on the horn go to Black/Green pair on the MDF of the PEPU and the white black pair go to a 24v power supply. You can test the connection by putting your test set on the the black green pair and dialing #39 from any phone this is the ext page zone. That is if you have a test set.
