Pickup Park

ability to retrieve a call placed into a “global hold”

(a.k.a. Answer Back)

resource slot or “orbit”. This feature is present in PBX
systems offering Call Park capabilities.

Hunt Group

ability to define a set of PBX extensions as accessible via a
single master extension number. Typically, consists of two or
more extensions configured so that a single PBX extension
number will, when called, cause a ring to appear on any
one of the set of extensions making up the Hunt Group.

In addition to the minimal set of PBX features described above, the following feature
enhances the functionality of the APS Custom.

Park Recall

ability for the PBX system to supervise calls which have
been placed into Park Orbits (see Call Park above). Upon
expiration of a set timeout, the calls are automatically
removed from orbit and forw a rded to the specified extension.
Ty p i c a l l y, the calls are re t u rned to the PBX extension that
originally parked the call. However, some PBX’s allow
f o rw a rding the call to another extension.

Before installation, it is important to consider the paging area to be covered by the
transmitter. The range and performance of the transmitter can be improved with the
proper positioning of the antenna. The antenna is installed inside the building near the
t r a n s m i t t e r. For example, to cover a large paging area, or in an area where
transmission interf e rence is expected, you can boost overall perf o rmance by positioning
the antenna as high up on the building as feasible. When paging throughout a
multi-story building, better perf o rmance may result from positioning the antenna at the
midpoint of the building. To ensure optimal placement of the transmitter, refer to section
3.6.6,
Performing a Pager Site Survey.

WARNING: Do not attempt to operate the paging system without the

antenna connected to the paging transmitter. Damage
to the paging transmitter may result.

WARNING: Do not use “cable TV” type coaxial cable, or any other

type of cable not specifically designed for 400MHz
wireless paging requirements. Damage to the paging
transmitter may result.
