      If the AT&T Controller's 'contact closure input' zone isn't working, start by checking the connections to the zone selected as the input zone. Ensure the zone option switch is in the middle position. Use an ohmmeter to verify the host equipment provides a contact closure. Also, check the programming options for the correct settings. A higher priority in the PagePac Plus Controller might also be active.

    • B
      Brandon GibsonSep 4, 2025
      If the AT&T Controller's Page Access LED remains on, the Page VOX may be too sensitive; try adjusting it. If using Loop start and Ground start, verify that only two wires (tip and ring) are connected by the modular plug cord, ensuring the C1 lead isn't inadvertently grounded.
