Operation
GAI-Tronics offers two types of Page/Party
®
systems: single party (one party line) and multi-party (five
party lines).
Single-Party
To initiate a call, lift the station handset and press and hold the handset pressbar. Speak directly into the
handset to make the page announcement. The paged individual lifts the handset of a Page/Party
®
station
for two-way communication over the party line.
Page/Multi-Party
Complete the following steps to make a page announcement:
1. Lift the handset from the cradle.
2. If party line conversation is desired, rotate the selector switch to an unoccupied party line.
3. Press and hold the handset pressbar.
4. Speak directly into the microphone to broadcast your announcement over the loudspeakers.
5. Release the handset pressbar, and if requested, wait for a response.
The paged individual(s) responds by picking up a station handset and turning the selector switch to the
requested party line. Party line communication, which is full duplex, is not broadcast over the system
speakers. Other individual(s) can also pick up and join the conversation at any time. Always return the
handset to the cradle following a page or a party line conversation.
