 Connecting a parallel phone on the XDP port
I have a KX-TDA200 system with one E1 card for outside lines, 1 8-port digital ext card and 2 16-port analog ext cards.
All the extensions on the digital ext card have 7633 sets. All the sets work fine, all buttons, display, CID, etc etc.
I am trying to connect a parallel set on the XDP port. I take a regular cable with RJ-11 connector and plug one end into the 7633's XDP port and the other into a run of the mill analog phone. Result: Deafening silence. The parallel phone has no dial tone, doesn't ring, no nothing.
AFAIK, this should have worked. As per the manual, the XDP mode settings in the management program select if the parallel set has its own ext number or shares the one for the main set. Other than that there is nothing that says "port on/off".
The 7633 is connected using a 4-wire / 2 pair cable to the PBX. Ofcourse. Otherwise it wouldn't be working.
What else? Ideas / comments, anyone? |
