OmniPro II can't call out on new digital phone line.

[TAZMAN]

The telephone company recently changed the phone line from analog to digital. Now OmniPro II can no longer send an alarm code to the Security monitoring Central Off ice. Nor does the central office receive the automated periodic call that confirms that OmniPro II is on-line and functioning. The Alarm Company wants to sell me an expensive Honeywell TelGuard cellular system that also requires me to provide programming for my OmniPro II, that I don't know how to do. What solutions have you OmniPro II Users found for this problem? Thanks!

I went to using Ooma from a copper line. Never had an issue with Ooma.

My clients all moved from copper to VOIP. No problems at all.

Thanks to you both for the hints. The TELCO Phone Line has always been hooked up the same. It goes to the HAI OmniPro II, a phone in the elevator, then to a FAX machine that automatically switches incoming to the connected telephone base station/answering machine if no FAX tone is detected for about 10 seconds. Everything works OK except that the OmniPro II. Excuse my ignorance, but are you suggesting that I just need to install an Analog Telephone Adapter between the OmniPro II and the TELCO Line, leaving the other three devices connected as they are? Thanks for any ideas you can give me.
