Paging
Callback
A speakerphone paging (voice-announced inside) call that is queued by
using Callback automatically becomes a ringing call. Callback cannot be
used for calls to a speakerphone paging group. Systems with
loudspeaker paging can be set up to allow calls to be queued for the
loudspeaker paging system by placing the loudspeaker paging line in its
own pool and having users access the paging system through the pool.
When the pool is busy, calls to the loudspeaker paging system can be
queued.
Call Waiting
Call Waiting cannot be used for calls to busy speakerphone paging
groups.
Camp-On
Camp-On cannot be used for calls to busy speakerphone paging groups.
Conference
Group and loudspeaker paging calls cannot be added to a conference.
Digital Data Calls
Digital communications devices and videoconferencing systems can be
assigned to paging groups. However, they should not be: they are not
alerted if there is a call to a paging group, and they cannot make group
pages.
Direct Station
Selector
A DSS button for a line/trunk programmed as a loudspeaker paging line is
used only to indicate whether the paging system is in use and cannot be
used to gain access to the loudspeaker paging system. A DSS button can
be used only to dial an extension for a paging group. When a DSS button
for a paging group is pressed, transfer is not automatically initiated.
Display
When users with MLX display telephones use Group Paging, they see a
message on the display, indicating the number of the paging group. If a
loudspeaker paging jack is not programmed,
Loudspeaker Page
is not
shown as a feature choice on MLX display telephones.
Do Not Disturb
Speakerphone paging calls cannot be made to an extension with the Do
Not Disturb feature activated.
Forward and
Follow Me
Calls cannot be forwarded to a paging group. The line/trunk number used
to connect loudspeaker paging equipment cannot be used to forward calls
to outside telephone numbers.
Headset Options
A user with a headset hears group pages over the speakerphone.
Hold
A paging call can be put on hold by the caller. An inside voice-announced
call can be put on hold by the person being called.
HotLine
A HotLine extension cannot access Loudspeaker Paging, but a HotLine
extension can be programmed to dial a Group Paging number.
Inspect
If a user gets a voice-announced inside call or a group page while using
the Inspect feature, the Inspect feature is canceled and the user is
returned to the Home screen.
Microphone Disable
Calls made to speakerphone paging groups can still be heard over
telephones where microphones are disabled.
Multi-Function
Module
A Multi-Function Module (MFM) should not be a member of a
speakerphone paging group.
Night Service
A line/trunk jack programmed as a Loudspeaker Paging port cannot be
assigned to a Night Service group.
