Door Phones Overview
Door phones and their associated door-entry mechanisms have become a common
accessory in business phone systems. Door phone systems provide an easy method for
Deskset users to attend to someone who is present at a door elsewhere. Synapse
supports two types of door phones: Station Port (FXS) and Trunk Port (FXO). The system
lets you select which Desksets will be notified by the door phone.
A Deskset user can send DTMF digits from the Deskset to the door phone to activate
associated door-latch and relay mechanisms. How the door phone operates using a
Deskset and the method to control a door latch varies with the door phone model.
Station Port (FXS) Door Phone Support
This type of door phone emulates a regular analog phone and can be connected to either
FXS1 or FXS2 of a Synapse SB67050 ATA as shown in Figure 8. The ATA supports a
feature called Private Line Automatic Ringdown (PLAR) for single-button door phones.
With PLAR configured in Synapse, when the door phone goes off-hook it will ring one or
more Synapse Deskset(s). Any Synapse extension can call the associated extension of the
ATA port connected to the door phone.
In Call Appearance mode, you can configure PLAR to ring either a single extension or
group of extensions (a Ring Group) when the door phone goes off hook. In Line
Appearance mode, you can configure PLAR to ring a single extension.
