Broadcasting Messages with Group Paging

Group Paging enables you to make pages—one-way audio announcements—to contacts subscribed to a
page group. Your administrator can enable your phone to operate in a broadcast mode called Group Paging
mode. In this mode, you can broadcast one-way announcements to a specified group of phones, called a
Paging Group.
Your system administrator can define up to 25 paging groups. Your system administrator can assign a label
to each group to identify the phones in the group, such as All, HR Dept, Shipping Staff, or Executives.
Each group has one of the following priorities:
● Normal By default, broadcasts sent to groups 1 to 23 are considered Normal broadcasts. If two
users begin a broadcast on the same group at the same time, the phone with the lower serial number
continues to transmit while the other phone enters the receiving state. By default, all phones are
configured to receive broadcasts sent to group 1.
