Features
Paging
A loudspeaker paging jack cannot be assigned to a pool that contains lines/trunks
used to make or receive outgoing calls.
When a line/trunk jack is assigned for Loudspeaker Paging, only the loudspeaker
paging system can be connected.
If the loudspeaker paging system is multizone, you must dial the appropriate zone
number specified by the paging system before making an announcement.
The system supports loudspeaker systems with talkback (bidirectional paging),
which allows you to respond to pages.
In Release 6.0 and later systems (Hybrid/PBX mode only), loudspeaker and voice
paging calls cannot be made to non-local dial plan extensions or paging groups.
Prior to Release 2.1, users at extensions programmed with Forced Account Code
Entry need to enter an account code to use Loudspeaker Paging. In Release 2.1
and later systems, users at extensions programmed with Forced Account Code
Entry do not need to enter an account code to use Loudspeaker Paging.
Telephone Differences
Direct-Line Consoles
The line/trunk jack programmed for Loudspeaker Paging can be assigned to a
button on an analog or digital Direct-Line Console (DLC) for one-touch access. An
operator with an MLX DLC also can access a loudspeaker paging system by
dialing the line/trunk number (801–880) for the line/trunk jack on which the
loudspeaker paging system is connected.
Queued Call Consoles
A QCC cannot make or receive voice-announced inside calls, which are
speakerphone calls to an individual extension. A QCC cannot be a member of a
speakerphone paging group and cannot receive group pages; however, it can
make announcements to a paging group.
A QCC operator can use the Group Paging feature either by selecting a Call
button and pressing the DSS button or by dialing the extension for the group.
A QCC operator can use a loudspeaker paging system only by selecting a Call
button, selecting Loudspeaker Paging from the display, and then dialing the
Loudspeaker Paging line number (801–880).
