PAGING SYSTEM ACCESS
Description
Provides users with dial access or feature button access to paging equipment.
As many as three paging zones can be provided, each with its own access code. (A zone is the location of paging loudspeakers, for example, conference rooms, warehouses, or storerooms.) In addition, one access code can be provided to activate all zones.

A PagePac* paging system may be used. Some paging systems require only one port assignment to support all zones. Other systems may require separate ports for each zone. Compatible PagePac paging systems include:
●PagePac 20 (Powermate)
This is the smallest PagePac system. The basic system provides a single paging zone with an input source for background music. An Auxiliary Trunk port interface is required for this system.
●PagePac 20 Control Unit and Zone Mate 9 (includes Common Control Unit)
Allows a user to dial one paging access code and then dial a single zone or all zones code
PagePac equipment is easy to use. A user simply dials the paging access code and receives Confirmation Tone. If the equipment provides just one zone, the user then makes the announcement. If the equipment provides multiple zone access, the user, after hearing Confirmation Tone, dials a code to access the desired zone(s) before paging.
Considerations
Paging is particularly useful when used in conjunction with the Call Park feature. When a user is away from his or her location and receives a call, the call can be answered and parked by another user. The called party can then be paged and told what extension number to call to retrieve the parked call. The called party can then retrieve the call from any voice terminal.
