Paging from the Console

Paging from the Console

Three types of paging are available from the console: Public Address (PA) Paging, Extension Paging, and Park and Paging.

PA Paging

If your system has external paging equipment, you can place a call on hold, and then page for someone to pick up the call from the console Hold slots. You can also use PA Paging to make public announcements.

Your paging equipment may be set up to access several areas or “zones.” If so, you use the Page key to speak to all zones at once and access codes to speak to individual zones. These codes are available from your communications department.

To page someone to pick up a call on hold at the console:

1.Place the Source call on hold. (See page 21.)

2.Press and hold Page.

The lamp above the Page key lights.

3.Do one of the following:

If you have only one paging zone, announce the Hold Pickup access code and the Hold slot number appearing on the top line of the display.

If you have more than one page zone, dial the two-digit paging code (dial 00 for all zones), and then announce the Hold Pickup access code and the Hold slot number.

If any of the paging zones are busy, the display shows “Busy” on the second line. Press [Override] to interrupt the page in progress.

4.Release Page.
