Send A Group Page; Receiving Pages - Polycom VVX 300 Series User Manual

Send a Group Page

When you send a group page without selecting a page group, it is automatically sent to the default paging
group, which is group 1. You cannot send a page while you are in an active call.
Procedure
1. From the Lines screen, select the Paging soft key.
2. From the Paging Groups screen, select a paging group.
3. To begin a page, select Page.
Just before the page starts, you'll hear an alert tone, and then the page begins.
4. Begin speaking.
5. To end the page, select End Page.

Receiving Pages

You receive pages on the paging groups you are subscribed to as well as Group 24 (Priority pages), and
Group 25 (Emergency pages). When you enable Do Not Disturb, you only receive Emergency pages.
Non-emergency pages do not display or play on your phone.
How you receive a page depends on the priority of the page, whether you are in an active call, and
whether your phone is set to receive a page during an active call. When you receive a page, the page is
always played through the phone's speakerphone. You cannot play a page through your handset or
headset.
When you enable Do Not Disturb on your phone, you receive only Emergency broadcasts. Non-
emergency broadcasts do not display or play on your phone.
Listen to a Page during an Active Call
How you handle a page when you are in an active call depends on the page priority and whether the
phone is set up to receive a page during active calls.
The following occurs when you receive a page during a call:
• For Normal pages, the page immediately plays, and you hear audio from both the active call and
the page.
• For Priority or Emergency page, the page immediately plays. You hear audio from the active call
and the page.
• If the phone is not set up to receive Normal pages during active calls, the page is displayed as
Pending.
Note: You adjust the volume of a Normal, non-emergency page while it plays, and the phone uses the
adjusted volume for all subsequent non-emergency pages. However, only your system
administrator can change the volume of an Emergency page.
Procedure
1. Do one of the following:
• For pages that play automatically during a call, hold the call to hear only the page.
• For Pending pages, select Accept or hold the call.
