Loudspeaker Paging Access

This feature allows the attendant to access loudspeaker paging equipment.
Attendants can page individuals by dialing an access code, by dialing an
extension, or by clicking a feature button that connects to your paging system.
The allowable paging time (available from your System Manager) is preset for
the system. If the preset time interval expires while an announcement is being
made, the call is disconnected and intercept tone is heard.
NOTE:
The attendant cannot extend calls to a loudspeaker paging device.
You can combine loudspeaker paging with the Call Park feature to connect a
calling party with an inside party. The paged party can retrieve the call by
dialing the Answer-Back access code, followed by the parked-on extension
number.
NOTE:
This feature is available to PC Console only if the applicable feature
access codes have been correctly administered at the switch.
