regarding the posts about MOH... why do you need a transformer or something of that sort? just buy any regular audio cable with a mini plug on one end and phono(rca) on the other. or buy a mini plug and phono plug and make your own out of cross connect or cat3 cable. it works.

The MOH input is usually 600 ohms (unless you have a 600/8 ohm switch) and the line output of a radio or CD player is 8 ohms.
If you can make it sound good enough without a transformer, good for you.
In all honesty I was taught to put in a matching transformer, they cost about $3 and it seemed reasonable to do.
Maybe its not needed, I don't know, its just what they taught me to do and I've always done it that way. Sorry if I gave bad advice.

All I can say is the $3 transformer from Radio Shack worked great. I am more comfortable matching the resistance.

Is there any way to change the intercom dial tone so it sounds different than the regular one. Older Toshiba models have a different intercom dial tone.

How about a door phone question? Is it possible to ring all phone or just a single phone? When I ring a single phone, there is no problem. When I attempt to ring a phone group, nothing happens. I must be making a mistake.

Look in the user guide, changing ring tones is a user thing, but you can do it too under the dial tone buttons in station key programming. The different tone stuff is in the USER guide.
I've never tried to make a group of phones ring from a doorphone on the CIX but I have to assume it can be done. Sorry, but its almost 1 PM and I'm supposed to be home, not doing this. I can look tomorrow if no one answers before then, glad you're happy with the transformer, I don't think they lied to me back in phone school 21 years ago and I can afford $3.

I know of no way to change the sound of the intercom dialtone. You can change the ring tone though in user programming.

I can only do it for digital phones, using a PhDN or Page Group assignment. As for changing the intercom tone, I believe you can, by changing the "intercom" pitch (at key assignment) to something other than 01/02. (eg. 11-17)

You said there is a way to get the door phone to ring all phones in a page group. How come when I set all phones to page group 1 and set the door phone to page group 1, nothing happens? I must be forgetting something. Do I need to create a phDN for every phone?
