Hi,

if I use a simple door bell button rather than a door station, can I get the phones to announce the visitor ? (just to ring is fine)

do I need a ringer module for this to work ?
(I'm unclear as the details say its needed for a doorstation, but is it needed for a simple bell push )

This door has no need for a door station, and I don't need to talk to the person via intercom or anything like that. What I would like though is to get the phones to ring because the keypad cannot be heard from all areas of the house (or outside).

Also, do I need to use a special action code in the comfigurator, or does 'siren doorbell' (the standard response) do the job to ring the phone too ?

This is on a Comfort I.

Many thanks,
    John.

There is an action Activate Doorphone in Response wizard, Security catergory
Asssign that to the doorbel button zone.
You will need a RGR04 module to ring the phones, but check to hear if the relays click when the button is pressed, because this action is a relic of the old days when there was no dedicated door station
