Does anyone know what kind of external ringer i can put on a station in our warehouse, so when the warehouseman's phone rings it also rings in the warehouse, and where can I get it. This is a station off of a elite 48/192.

if you have an ecr card you can do a ring over external page (if you have paging horns etc)

you can get the little viking unit and wire it into the phone speaker so that when that phone rings so will the little viking. as a side bonus if you voice call that phone it will also go out the page horn. downside is that everything (including calls) using the speaker will be broadcast on the horn.

if you have a free analog port, use a big bell thing (rat shack has them) on it, or put a regular cheapo cordless on it and set that port to ring, or again viking makes something for this application too.

here's their web site:

It seems that all the Viking Supplies are for external paging systems, I just need a simple ringer, so that our warehouse person knows their phone is ringing. It is a digital phone, a dtu-16d-2. Any ideas would be appreciated.

not this one. read the pdf for it
