Paging Another Phone
To page another phone, dial *96 plus the extension of the phone you are paging. If
the phone you are paging is not set up to auto answer pages, the call will ring as a
normal voice call.
Paging a Group of Phones
Your phone administrator can configure a group of phones that you can page
simultaneously. Each paging group has a number associated with it. Your
administrator must give you the number of the groups that are configured. To page
this group, dial *96 plus the number of the paging group.

STEP 1 Press the Setup button.
STEP 2 Select Preferences.
STEP 3 Choose Auto Answer Page and press edit.
STEP 4 Press y/n to choose yes.
STEP 5 Press ok.
STEP 6 Press save.
Monitoring/Accessing Another Phone from Your Phone
Your system administrator may configure your phone so that you can monitor other
user’s phones from your phone. If this feature is configured, some line buttons on
your phone are assigned to display the status of another user’s phone. For
example, if your line 4 is configured to display Bob’s phone line, the LED color
shows you the status of his phone line:
• Green: Line is idle.
• Red (steady): Line is active or in use.
