Simultaneous Paging (I*70) 8
Use this feature to access the Loudspeaker Paging system if you have one connected to the
system through the PAGE jack on the primary processor module, and all of the idle system
telephones with speakers assigned to Calling Group 1.
Considerations 8
■ You can program a Simultaneous Paging button on a system telephone to access with one
touch the Loudspeaker Paging system and idle system telephones with speakers in Calling
Group 1.
■ If the Loudspeaker Paging system or Calling Group 1 is in use, a user attempting to make
an announcement hears a busy tone.
■ If someone answers a loudspeaker page from a system telephone in Calling Group 1, the
page becomes an intercom call.
■ If some extensions in Calling Group 1 have single-line, MLC-6, or TransTalk 9000-series
telephones, those extensions are not included in the simultaneous page (because they do not
have built-in speakers).
■ Use Loudspeaker Paging to make announcements only over the Loudspeaker Paging
system.

1. Press
f00.
2. Press a programmable button.

i*70.

Using Simultaneous Paging on a System Telephone 8
To make an announcement over the Loudspeaker Paging system and the idle system telephones
with speakers in Calling Group 1:
1. Press the programmed button or
i*70; then lift the handset.
2. Speak into the handset. (To avoid feedback, do not use the speakerphone.)
Your voice is heard through the Loudspeaker Paging system and the speakers of all idle
system telephones in Calling Group 1.
If your paging system supports announcements to zoned areas, refer to the
instructions packaged with the paging device to make zoned announcements.
