[cisco-voip] Ringing Light Attachment for 79xx phones

[King, Jesse]

Thanks all for replying.
 
It looks like I will do an analog with a shared line appearance.

Sorry, I misread your post. I thought you were asking for a large MWI
light, not a light signalling when the phone was ringing. ooops.
 
That being said, I remember testing out a 'bedshaker' for our residence
people here. Bascially, they would give this special alarm clock to
those who are hard of hearing. It had inputs for telephone and for high
volume noise (like fire alarms) and when triggered, would set the bed
shaker going. Now I tell you, I couldn't hold this thing in my hand when
it went off without making a milkshake out of my brain. I'm sure you
could jurry rig something up so that you could attach it to the desk (or
chair maybe with some work) so that the person would 'feel' the phone
ring. Just like a Blackberry though, you can 'hear' it vibrate, so
depending on where you place it, it might bother others in the room.
 
Look up 'bedshaker' on google and you will get tonnes of hits.

	you'll probably need an analog phone which has a shared line
with the 79XXX phone to do this.
	 
	some ideas:

		Hi All -
		 
		Does anyone know of an aftermarket product that could
plug into the back of the phone and light up when the phone is ringing?
We have a user that is hard of hearing and this would be helpful. The VM
light just isn't enough when it blinks.
		 
		Thanks.
		 
		Jesse
