I am trying to setup a ta824 in my home and would like to be able for one extension to ring selected other extensions all at the same time. I cant figure out how to make this happen correctly.

Rube Goldberg lives! The 824 has no ring groups, per se, so you have to either come in via DISA or tie a station to a trunk and ring that station, ringing the phones programmed for that trunk.

With DISA, you can tailor the digits to go to specific ring groups, but an extension can only be in one ring group. You'll
pay a 3 dB penalty for tying a trunk to a station, but it's not going to matter on such short loops. You may also have a supervision problem as the system can't see the disconnect. Not a huge deal as you can manually release a no answer.

I already have supervision problems! LOL Not sure how the DISA would be setup thanks for your help

Just a couple of steps to set up DISA, you define AA for answer, assign the digits to ring phones, as in dial "3" for ring group 1, and record your greeting from the phone connected to jack 01.

You are still going to have to connect an extension to a trunk that is defined as a DISA trunk. It answers on the first ring, plays the message, and lets you dial a digit or some other function.

Lots of fun.

Get a TDA50.

If this is internal call you could do a all page

all page only works with the PT phones right?

Yes. Only other thing you could do is a spare extension with a few small bells on it at different locations you ring that extension and whoever wants to answer the call can do a pickup

DOES TDA50 DO CALL ALL EXTENSIONS FROM AN EXTENSION?

I set up the extension to a empty co port and it works okay except the extension dialed rings about for times in my ear before it actually rings the phones? Any way to make it ring right away? I have looked through the programing and tried a few things but nothing makes a change.
