6.17 Configuring a Programmable Key for Paging
Six programmable keys are located on either side of the phone screen. Three are on each side.
Each can be configured for paging a group, exactly like the 12 function keys. So a total of 18 keys
can be configured on the phone for paging: Twelve function keys + six programmable keys.
The paging feature allows a live announcement to be made (paged) from a phone to a group of
phones, to notify a team (for example) that a meeting is about to commence. The paged
announcement is multicast via a designated group IP address, in real time, on all idle phones in
the group, without requiring listeners to pick up their receivers. The name of the group is
displayed on phone screens when the paging call comes in.
 To configured a programmable key for paging:
Note: Make sure paging is enabled on the network. Consult your network administrator if it
isn't.
1. Open the Programmable Keys screen (MENU key > Keys > Programmable Keys):
2. Select an 'Empty' (unconfigured) programmable key and then select Paging.
3. In the 'Group Name' field, enter the name of the group to be displayed in the phone's screen
