TIP: Call the pager number and measure the time between placing the call and the prompt to key-in the pager message. Use this time measurement to choose the special characters (# or ~) to insert a delay between the pager telephone number and pager message. NOTE: Many pager companies require a pound sign (#) to end the message (a pound sign at the end of the page alert message is treated as the # key, not is a delay) Example with a 7-second delay and pound sign end: 5551234~##07734#
