Hey,

Originally I had a SLT from one of the eight extension sockets from my Panasonic pbx. All other phones were PT phones connected via RJ45 plugs and sockets.

I had a loudtoner (a bell) connected to a BT Master Socket which in turn was connected to the SLT. This was per manual and worked fine, in other words the bell rang when the extension was rung.

However since I changed the phone over to PT phone and wired up the eight pins in the rj45 socket, I cannot get the bell to ring. Manual says to connect a SLT aswell as a PT from the same socket, use pins 2,5. I tried this and it doesn't work.

So,

RJ45 Socket (8 pins) -> BT Master Socket (2,5 pins) -> LoudToner connected to master socket on pins 5,3 which should make the bell ring. Off a normal telephone line the bell works fine.

Any thoughts? I can only be using the wrong pins from the RJ45 socket me thinks. Other query is that I can only find around 25v on the pins in the RJ45 socket, shouldn't this be higher?

Infact I found two pins which around 25v and that was all.

Thanks for any tips!

Danny
