Detailed Description
Tab. 204 Announcement
Note:
To protect the user's hearing, announcements to the Office 135 cordless system phone are pos-
sible only if the phone is in its charging bay. This restriction does not apply to the Office 160
cordless system phone as the loudspeaker is located on the upper side of the phone.
Creating announcement groups:
• It is possible to define up to 16 (Mitel 415/430) or 50 (Mitel 470) groups.
• Each group can consist of up to 16 users.
• Group 8 (Mitel 415/430) or Group 16 (Mitel 470) is reserved for system event mes-
sages.
• The announcement groups are also used for the feature Send text messages (see
"Sending and reading text messages", page 407
).
Notes:
– Only one announcement (on one or more users or an announcement group) can be trig-
gered at the same time.
– Several announcements can be active at the same time on announcement groups.
1)
– For each group one announcement can be made to a maximum of 16 phones simultane-
ously. This limit is quickly reached if several phones are allocated to each user. The first 16
phones of the members of a group are taken into account, starting with the lowest member
number. Only the phones for which the announcement can be made actually count (e.g. a
set can be protected against announcement).
– If the announcement is on an analogue phone, it calls with a special call pattern (200 ms ring
– 200 ms pause – 20 0ms ring – 200 ms pause etc.). Some analogue Mitel phones (e.g.
Aastra 1930) or from other manufacturers, specially designed for retirement homes and
hospitals are able to recognize this ringing pattern and switch automatically to hands-free
mode.
Restriction: Analogue phones in a announcement group will be ignored for an normal
announcement.
