TIPS School Bell and PA System

[herbertshades]

Hello Forum

I am thinking and hoping I can use IncrediblePBX to run a school PBX, Bell ringing system for their schedule and PA, all under the same umbrella.

The PA system:
Pick up a phone extension, dial for example 2999, 000 and you are live on PA

Pick up a phone extension, dial 2999, 107 and you are in classroom 107 (2-way)

The Bell System:
Akin a wake up call, dial for example, extension 2888, auto answer, play a tone, hang up. Do this on a schedule at specific times of the day.

Phone System:
Best system. IncrediblePBX

I hope this can be done simply without any custom scripts under the hood. I am sure there are many many people who could benefit from this application.

Any guidance?

I highly suggest you talk to the folks at ClearlyIP ( @Tonyclewis ) about this. They have a lot of knowledge in this environment and you need to make sure you've got things such as Kari's law covered.

No sure you found your solution yet, but I saw the Algo 8420 (two Sided) recently at itExpo and it's perfect for a school solution and many alerting applications.

Yes, I saw that at the ITexpo ... very nice. Algo appliances are really expensive, but the work really good too.
