8.13 Sending A Paging Announcement
There are several ways to make a public announcement to all or a
portion of your location. Your system might be arranged with an
external paging unit that you access by pressing a line button or by
dialing a special code. This unit sounds the announcement over an
external speaker unit.
Your system may provide an all-call or a zone page feature that you
access by dialing special codes. This arrangement sounds the
announcement through the telephone speakers. All-call sounds the
announcement through all telephones, while zone paging sounds it only
through those telephones located in a specific area. Check with your
system administrator to determine the type of paging that you should
use and the method that you should use to access it.
NOTE: You can program a special all-call/zone paging button if you
need it for quick access to the feature. See the programming
section of this user’s guide for details.
If your system provides an external paging unit,
1. Lift handset.
2. Press INTERCOM, then dial extension number of station
equipped and enabled for paging (see programming section of this
user’s guide),
