sites and running into something I can't believe is this hard. In one of
the zones, they want to have three different extensions ring over the pa
system, using it as a loud ringer. Now the paging system does have a loud
ringer built in and I can easily have it do a simultaneous ring, but all
of the extensions will sound the same over the loud ringer. Of course,
we want them to have different rings over the pa system so that all three
people don't have to check their phone every time it rings.</font>
<br>
<br><font face="sans-serif">So far, the only semi solution I am
coming up with (short of buying three different loud ringers and wiring
them into the paging system) is to have my dialplan generate a call file
that will make a second call to the paging system and play out an audio
file based on who we are doing the loud ringer for. This has the disadvantage
that it isn't a true loud ringer as it will only play for however long
I tell it to and it won't cut off if they answer the phone before the audio
file finishes playing. </font>
<br>
<br><font face="sans-serif">Anyone have any suggestions about a
better way to handle this? Really hoping there is an Asterisk dialplan
solution as I don't want to triple my paging hardware just to add one tiny
piece of functionality.</font>
