asterisk users - Nov 2011 - Question on PAP2 linksys showing off-hook

I am using my first PAP2 device from linksys. Used many polycom phones...

I configured the PAP2 device with asterisk. I have the registration, 
thought I was good to go.
Plugged in my Valcom 2924 public address analog connection, called the 
extension
and I got busy...  very strange I thought.

I then looked at the status page of the PAP2 and it says the following 
Reg online and hook state OFF.

How do I get the hookstate to be ON so that I can call into the device?

I have power cycled it and it always shows hookstate OFF.

Thanks,

Jerry

Not so strange ;-)

According to the Valcom 2924 manual it is designed to connect to an 
analog phone or a pbx analog c.o. port.
So you're connecting the PAP2 FXS port to another pbx port... the one on 
Valcom, not only can't work but may damage one or both devices.
