To receive a page sent to a particular paging group, you need to be subscribed
to that group. To subscribe to a paging group, see Updating Paging Group
Subscriptions on page 47.
How you receive a page depends on the priority of the page, whether you’re
in an active call, or if you’re phone is set to receive a page during an active call.
You’ll receive pages on the paging groups you’re subscribed to as well as
Group 24 (Priority p ages) and Group 25 (Em ergen cy p ages). If you enabled
Do Not Disturb, you’ll only receive Emergency pages. Non-emergency pages
won’t display or play on your phone.
