AT&T 4.1 Telephone User Manual


 
Group Paging
Description
This option is available only on PARTNER-model phones.
This telephone option lets users simultaneously page all system extensions with
PARTNER-model phones. When paging, the caller hears a beep and begins
speaking; the caller’s voice is then heard on the speakers of all idle
PARTNER-model phones.
Related Features
You can use this option manually, or you can store it on an Auto Dial button (see
Auto Dialing).
Considerations
MDC 9000, MDW 9000, and standard phones will not receive group-page
announcements.
If a user leaves the microphone on for hands-free answer on intercom
(HFAI), the microphone is turned off when that phone receives a group
page; the user must lift the handset or press [
Mic/HFAI
] to answer the page.
After a group page, the microphone is turned on again.
