• If an external paging system has been connected to Paging Groups 00-07,
pages can be made through the external speakers. Voice Paging can also be
heard over the extensions in groups 00-07.
• An extension can belong to more than one paging group.
• A maximum of eight Paging Groups can be assigned to a system.
• Additional pages cannot be sent when someone is paging group 00. In fact,
if you page group 00 while other extensions are paging groups 01-07, the
latter operations will be terminated, and “Page Overridden” will appear on
your display.
• Paging cannot be heard at busy extensions or at extensions for which the
Do Not Disturb, Call Forwarding, or Absence Message feature is activated.
• You can answer Paging from an idle extension by dialing the Meet-Me
Answer code (“77”).
• The Meet-Me Answer feature cannot be used at an extension that is off-
hook at the time of the Paging Call, even if the extension later goes
onhook.
• The Meet-Me Answer feature cannot be used with Paging Group 00.
Power Failure Transfer(CPC-S and CPC-M)
Description
This feature provides telephone service to a limited number of SLTs during a
power failure. The SLTs are connected to the CO via a Power Failure Unit
(PFU).
In the event of a power failure, the power failure extensions have dial tone
directly from the CO; system features and restrictions do not apply.
Hardware Requirements
• Power Failure Unit (VA-43703)
• An SLT that will be connected to the PFU
