Operation
Paging
This function allows paging from any master
station. Individual 7-area paging and All-Call
paging are possible.
7-area paging is feasible in the form of Zone
Paging with an external PA system (s) and/or
Group Paging using station speakers.
7-area paging means that the total number of
zones and/or groups that can be paged is limit-
ed to 7.
All-call paging covers all paging zones.
Dial at any master station.
(Paging area) 1 through 7, or
All-Call paging
for the desired paging zone. It is possible to
wait for a response in this mode but anything
spoken at the station is then broadcast. If this
is not desirable, paging may be terminated by
dialing
while waiting for the response.
The paged party is to answer from the nearest
station.
He can respond by simply touch dialing
plus the zone number from which the page
originated. This, of course, makes it necessary
for the person making the page to identify
his area or zone during the page. As an ex-
ample, the page would be made, "Mr. XX,
please respond to page Zone 1" or perhaps
more simply, "Mr. XX dial

Note 2:
Combined use of the Paging and Transfer
functions is possible. The results of such a
combination of features would amount to
putting one party of a two-station connection
on Hold while the other party made a page
and received its response.
Note 3:
In order to do this, during the conversations,
touch dial
plus the zone number into
which a page is to be directed. Immediately,
the station to which the paging station has
been connected is put in a holding mode.
After the paging announcement, touch dial
and wait for the response under original con-
versation mode. On responding the party who
paged is connected to the responding party.
The original conversation may be continued
by simply touch dial
again.
Zone Paging
Zone paging can be done from any master
station if an external PA system is available.
Group Paging
Even if no external PA system is available,
paging to all stations in a given area can be
done from any master station, although this
mode of paging cannot be made to stations
which are occupied. Normal calling can also
be made from the station through which the
paging voice is being heard, but the paging
will be interrupted in such cases.
This function is convenient for stations
that normally only receive calls and do not
have to call other stations.
Talk-Back
First, call the "Talk-Back" station as in a
normal call.
("Talk-Back" station).
The Calling tone will sound and the message is
transmitted. In this case, while the calling sta-
tion has the Press-To-Talk bar depressed, the
caller can transmit a one-way message. When
this bar is released, the "Talk-Back" station
can give a one-way message to the caller.
