We have a bunch of these and they have served us well. Ingenico has stopped supporting these units. I had a defective screen and cannibalized a screen from another unit. In replacing the screen I noticed that there are a couple of pressure switches that cut power when the case is cracked...

I have this same issue. Polycom Sound Station will not go on-hook. At first I thought it had to do with the settings on the ATA (PAP2t) we use to supply analog lines for our VOIP. But I plugged the Sound Station into a POTS that we have for emergency call-out and the same thing happened...

I am using a couple of ATA's (PAP2t Linksys) in our Allworx VOIP system to interface with some analog devices. On the analog phones using the ATA I have noticed that when out-calling and getting a voice-mailbox that the call will terminate prematurely even when speaking and leaving a message...

We have a farm and want to get the satellite TV signal from the house to the barn office. Buildings are approximately 1000 ft apart. Existing wiring consists of a 50 twisted pair telephone cable (Cat 3?) direct burial and a direct burial coax with ground (not sure of the specs on the coax but...

AARENOT is absolutely correct in stating that technicians have their place in the installation and programing of complicated telephony. I believe that CHET14 was asking if the Partner System was conducive to self-install & programming. Many of us have encountered extremely engineered...

Partner System is know for reliability and ease of use. I had no training on the system and have been programming it for 15 years. It is like cooking, if you can read, you can cook. My advice, get an up-to-date manual, and read it through first. When you program the system keep detailed...

Success at last. The powering-up of the expansion cabinet 1st is the key. This is counter-intuitive but ttech1000 was right. The main processor only seemed to recognize what was available at the time of the start-up and not what became available when the expansion cabinet was powered up...

Thanks for the posting skip555. Yes, I am powering-up the main processor cabinet first and then powering-up the expansion cabinet. This is a really weird situation. I am hoping someone will have encountered this before. Someone did mention that I might have a problem/issue in the main...

I am now on-site and placed a "good" main processor and a "good" 206E card into the "questionable" cabinet. Both cards/modules did "light-up". This should verify that the backplane of the cabinet/carrier is also good. I then placed the "good" extension processor and the "good" 206E card in...

Thanks for the post. I am off-site at the moment and I can't recall if I tried that scenario yet, but I will. The PARTNER II cabinet (model 103F) does not have a fuse. The top right of the cabinet is where the power comes in and has a single-pole switch. Power is distributed via a printed...

Thanks for the posting. I hate going at this thing w/o a schematic but the problem does seem "power related". According to your post I cannot have the "power" LED on the expansion processor light-up unless the expansion processor is linked to the main processor via the cable? So there is no...

Here in Maine we got hit with the recent blizzard and after some strange power fluctuations, I lost the expansion cabinet of our Partner II Release 3.1. All four cards and the expansion processor were dead (no power light). Pulled all modules and tested the cabinet, 120V was available to all...
