the access code dialed. If an extension tries to access busy paging equipment, Busy Tone is
returned. See Attendant Paging Access. Also see Paging - PA and Telephones.
Paging -Telephones
There are three different types of paging that page telephones (see Paging - PA for PA Paging
- based on a Pager and paging zones, and see Paging - PA and Telephones for the combination
of overhead paging and telephone paging)
• Directed Page - pages one user via his/her telephone speaker
• Group Page (and Meet Me Answer) - pages members of a defined group via their telephone
speakers
• All Set Page - pages all members via their telephone speakers.
Both the paging party and the paged party receive a single burst of tone to indicate that a page
is about to occur. As well, only idle telephones may be paged via Directed Page or Group Page.
Directed Page: Allows a party to page a specific telephone set via its telephone speaker. The
connection is one-way audio, and is terminated when the paging party hangs up. Another party
attempting to call a set that is being paged in this manner will receive busy tone. The paged
party can answer the page as if it were a normal incoming call to the Prime key.
Group Page: Allows a party to page all telephones in a paging group simultaneously via their
telephone speakers. The connection(s) are one-way audio to each telephone in the page group,
and are terminated when the paging party hangs up. A telephone being paged in this manner
may originate and receive calls. When this occurs, the paging on that telephone is terminated.
Meet Me Answer: Allows a party to respond to a group page. It does not apply to Directed
Page. A paged party may respond in this manner if the paging party and the paged party are
in the same page group. If a party is involved in a call, but hears the page from another telephone,
they may put the current call on hold, and respond to the page. The paged party must respond
to the group page within 15 minutes - after this, the system cancels the page.
A paged party should not try to respond after another group page has been made to another
party. If the paging party has not hung up, a Meet Me Answer response will be connected
immediately as a normal 2-way conversation. If the paging party has hung up, the response
will be treated like a normal telephone to telephone call. Once connected, the call is treated
like a normal call, with all other existing features accessible.
All Set Page: Allows a party to page all telephones simultaneously via their telephone speakers.
The connection(s) are one-way audio to each telephone, and are terminated when the paging
party hangs up. A telephone being paged in this manner may originate and receive calls. When
this occurs, the paging on that telephone is terminated.
Paging - PA and Telephones
This feature enables overhead paging with telephone set paging. The attendant console user
or the telephone set user can initiate a page that includes the PA with Group Pages or All Set
Pages.
