Outside Call Ringing Over External Page; Intercom Ring Over External Page; Door Chime Over External Page; Background Music Over External Page - NEC DSX Software Manual

Paging
The equipment you connect to a system relay must be compatible with the following specifications. Refer to
your system's Hardware Manual for more on connecting to the system relay contacts.

Outside Call Ringing Over External Page

Line ringing can optionally broadcast over External Paging speakers. For each line, the Paging speakers can
broadcast ringing for all calls ringing the line, for calls ringing only at night, or for delay ring calls. While a
line rings External Paging, any extension user can dial a code ( INTERCOM + *0 ) to pick up the call. If the
system relay is programmed for Page Relay Control, and the line is set up to ring over External Paging,
the relay will activate when the line rings.
If Door Box chimes, ringing, and Background Music are all programmed to output over External Paging, the
system uses the following broadcast priority:
Paging
❥
Door Box chimes
❥
Ringing
❥
Background Music
❥
Note that External Paging can broadcast either extension ringing or line ringing, not both. In addition, Exter-
nal Paging requires additional customer-provided equipment. Refer to the Hardware Manual that came with
your system for more.

Intercom Ring Over External Page

An extension's ringing can optionally broadcast over External Paging. If enabled, any type of call that rings
the extension will broadcast over the Paging speakers. While an Intercom call rings External Paging, any
extension user can dial a code ( INTERCOM + *0 ) to pick up the call. If the system relay is programmed for
Page Relay Control, and an extension is set up to ring over External Paging, the relay will activate when
the extension rings.

Door Chime Over External Page

Door Box chimes can optionally broadcast over External Paging. While Door Box chimes broadcast over
External Paging, any extension user can dial a code ( INTERCOM + *0 ) to answer the Door Box. After
answering, a keyset user can press a soft key or FLASH to control the Door Box relay.

Background Music Over External Page

Background Music (BGM) can optionally play over the External Paging speakers while Paging is idle. BGM
will automatically turn off while Paging, ringing or Door Box chimes broadcast from the external zone, and
restart when the external zone again becomes idle.

Ring Over Page Volume Adjustment

You can adjust the volume of ringing over the External Paging system. There are three volume adjustments: low
(5), medium (6), and high (4). This adjustment does not affect the volume of Background Music or Door Chimes.
