The Panasonic door box, with a separate condenser mic and speaker, generally performs better than the Viking units I'v used, which use a 32 ohm speaker for both transmit and receive. In some cases where we needed more volume, we used an alarm horn speaker (Elk SP-40) (www.elkproducts.com) to r

KX-T: interfacing to KXTD-816/1232/500 via external control system (Joel Winarske)

2003-01-22 Thread OrrinCharm
An interface via Windows 200/XP or via Lantronix sounds interesting! I am using A JDS StarGate for home control, and I have been able to interface some features by DTMF dialing from the StarGate- i.e. turning Night Service on and off, etc., but a good serial interface would be much more useful

KX-T: Caller ID on KXTD-1232-6

2003-07-14 Thread OrrinCharm
My understanding of the Caller ID Table (Programs 110-111) is that if an incoming call has caller ID, and matches a number in the Caller ID Code Set, then the corresponding Caller ID Name is displayed instead of whatever info the Caller ID carries. However, all of my incoming calls just display

The material in the Suttle "Corro-Shield" jacks is definitely NOT the same as Silicone sealant or the goo inside UY connectors! It is a special formulation that moves out of the way when a plug is inserted, and moves back to cover the jack wires when the plug is removed. They are highly rec

Does anyone have details on the best way to physically prewire for and mount these? Will they mount on a standard single-gang ring? How much clearance is needed between the top of the ring and the ceiling for the antennas? Thanks- we are prewiring a house for the system . . . Orrin _

I'm not sure if you need more suggestions, but I have seen some microswitches (usually in surplus places) that have a "one-way" feature- they have a spring-loaded lever attached that will trip the switch when an object passes on one direction, but fold if it passes the other way. That wou

Hi We have a customer with a KX-TD1232-7 and a TVS50 in a large residence. He wants to eliminate a bunch of wrong number calls by having all calls answered by auto-attendant, and requiring callers to enter a valid first name. If the name matches one in the list, he wants most of the phones

Hello! I am having a strange problem with a KX-TD1232-6! If I program the system to automatically set the time from Caller ID (Program 990, Area 05, Bit 1), The system soon resets the entire clock to 12:00 January 1 2006! Of course, this screws up all of the Day/Night Mode settings! Th

Actually, there's now a very simple way to do that- if you install one or more VoIP lines, you can make them appear as analog lines at each system anywhere in the world, just my putting a VoIP modem at each location, and linking them all to the same telephone number. I'm using XCast Labs fo
