Broadcasting Messages with Group Paging

Group Paging enables you to send pages—one-way audio announcements—to contacts subscribed to a
page group.
Your administrator can enable VVX business IP phones 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 and 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. By
default, all phones are configured to receive broadcasts sent to group 1.
• Priority—By default, broadcasts sent to group 24 are considered Priority broadcasts. A Priority
broadcast interrupts Normal broadcasts or active calls. All phones receive Priority broadcasts
unless Do Not Disturb is enabled.
• Emergency—By default, broadcasts sent to group 25 are considered Emergency broadcasts. An
Emergency broadcast interrupts Normal broadcasts, Priority broadcasts, and active calls and plays
out at near maximum volume even if Do Not Disturb is enabled.
To send and receive pages, you need to subscribe to certain paging groups. By default, you are
subscribed to paging groups 1, 24, and 25, and you can send and receive pages to those paging groups.
Contact your system administrator to find out which paging group you are subscribed to.
