P-1 Paging Access
P-1 Paging Access
General Description
This feature provides both ATTENDANT CONSOLE [A-3] and station users dial access to PAGING
equipment.
Operating Procedure
To operate:
1. Go off-hook; receive Dial Tone.
2. Dial the Paging access code; receive Ringback Tone for several seconds.
3. Connection to Paging equipment is established.
Service Conditions
1. Amplifiers and speakers must be customer provided.
2. One trunk circuit (COT/TLT) is required for each Paging Access.
3. Where TENANT SERVICE [T-12] is provided, separate access codes and hardware should be
provided for each tenant.
4. Maximum Paging Access code is 3 digits.
5. ALL ZONE PAGING [A-53]: If the system provides multi-zone Paging with a separate direct
access code assigned for each area, stations or Attendants can use all-zone Paging by dialing
a special access code common for all Paging systems.
6. PRIORITY PAGING [P-30]: A predetermined station or the Attendant can preempt a Paging
trunk that is connected to any station.
7. Loop signaling is the recommended signaling type.
Interactions
1. MEET-ME PAGING [M-1, 11] and PAGING ACCESS [P-1] can be provided simultaneously in
the same system.
2. To directly answer PAGING ACCESS [P-1] by the Attendant Console, the Paged party should
use the INDIVIDUAL ATTENDANT ACCESS [I-4] feature.
3. Paging is limited to stations, Attendant Consoles, or TIE trunks. Other parties (CO trunks calls)
must have the Attendant Console or station user perform the Paging operation.
4. BUSY VERIFICATION [B-3], EXECUTIVE OVERRIDE [E-1]: These features will be denied if the
Paging route has been assigned for Privacy. Verify the data in the Assignment of Route Data
command, ARTD, CDN 44:PRV. If CDN 6:TCL is assigned as data “8”, CDN 44:PRV is not
required.
5. For simple PAGING ACCESS [P-1], assignments in ASFC are not required. Refer directly to the
other Paging features, such as, PAGING TRANSFER [P-10].
6. The Attendant can dial the PRIORITY PAGING [P-30] access code and release a station.
7. When disconnecting from a Paging trunk, the trunk becomes idle immediately.
8. Paging is possible from a CONSULTATION HOLD [C-17]. Station A places Party B on soft hold
and dials the access code to the Paging trunk. A momentary pressing of the switchhook
disconnects the Paging trunk immediately and reconnects Party B to Station A.
9. CALL HOLD [C-6]: A Paging trunk cannot be placed on call hold.
