Have you tried setting-up some SLT ext.'s to forward to each of the DECT Ext.'s? (I don't remember how many DECT you have...)
Put the forwarded SLTs in the ICD group for the Door. I'm thinking the ICD group would ring the SLTs which would ring forward to each DECT phone acting as an individual transfer. I'm not sure how a forwarded SLT would work with an ICD call, but it should ring - that's what forwarding means... This seems like working backwards - it was what we used to do on the old analog and XDP systems... Another solution is to provide centralized ringing for the Door - again working backwards to the days when we had doorbells... ;-) You could also do ring-over-paging for larger areas (warehouse, etc.). And/or ring-over-PA for offices that have background music. It seems like this customer wanted to save money with 7667 and DECT phones, rather than purchasing the other 76xx phones that are more flexible. I hope this helps...

The 7667 only has 8 ring tones over here, and it's only really the pitch that changes slightly. The TCA256 (DECT) handset will only allow different tones for the following: - External direct call - Internal direct call - Group call Have tried sending the call through to an ICD Group and even a PS Ring Group. The only way I can get a different call is to send it through to the handset directly (internal extension call). This isn't an option though as the customer wants more than one telephone to ring.
