Has anyone found a solution> I too have a need to have a user at location A, go off hook on their multiline phone and have it ring in on 4 different networked Nortel CS1000E. So if location A goes off hook (could be a hotline or they could manually dial a number or have the key programmed as an autodial), the call would ring at locations B, C, D & E. Also, anyone at the other locations could do the same and the call would ring at all locations. For example, location C could go off hook (or dial or autodial or hotline) to locations A, B, D & E. In other words any location makes one call and the call goes to the other four locations.

I can do this with channel banks and bridge cards but I'd like to be able to do this with the Nortel software. By the way, all Nortels are networked using location codes and 8 digit dialing.

thanks

For some reason to me this sounds like an MCR key as far as programming it across multiple location code dialing I am not sure how it can be done ... maybe for example Loc A could be 1001-1001 and B would be 1002-1001 and C would be 1003-1001 and D would be 1004-1001 and E would be 1005-1001 - all the same extension but they are really different extensions due to the loc code ... I think you would strip the 4 digits via dialing configurations for each zone under zone based dialing so it would ring 1001 for each location but that is quite a bit of configuration to change to get it done. I just did go to a class on this but we are not going to implement ZBD at my company. We are only 4-digit straight dialing with an access code to/from a non-Nortel system.
