i need an extension on an dx80 to have an external ringer is there a ringer that will work with a digital exstension or is there away to program this

Just use any loud ringer and put it on an IST port.
The DX-80 comes with 4, then add that extension to your ringing list.

It works great! IST ext. start at 149, 150, 151, 152.

That works for incoming calls but not for intercom calls, what are you trying to accomplish stix? To answer your exact question, no, there is no external ringer that will pair up with a digital port. There are however, other solutions like the one WEI noted, depending on what you want to get done.

If all you want it for is for incoming calls, not intercom calls, using the analog station port is a good way to go. There are a number of ways you could accomplish this, depending on where you want the loud ringing, and how much coverage area you're looking for. I've used a Viking PA-2A in the past, which also gives you an option for overhead paging.

If you need intercom ringing, as well, and you don't mind opening up the phone case, you might try a Viking M2W or similar product.

thank you for your help everyone. This is a side job and it was placed on hold. I only need it for incoming calls so I'm going to use the ist port option. To clarify im going into call handling and copying my ext. ringer list to the ist ext. 149 this will only let the ringer ring when my extensions numbers are called correct.
thank you for all your help

sorry for asking for to much detail i get a little nervous with a system i don't usually work with.
I found a programing manual online and read a little lol. Going with the ist port was the easiest way to achieve what i need to accomplish worked perfect thanks for all the help.
