Paging
Paging enables a user to broadcast a one-way 
message to another phone or group of phones 
within the business. A user can send a page using a 
handset, headset, microphone, or speakerphone. 
Phones that receive pages can end the page at any 
time using any of the normal methods to end a call.  
This feature is configured by your managedIP 
Administrator and when available, provides a Paging 
soft key on your phone. Ten paging groups or zones 
are available: All Page, Emergency, Priority, and (7) 
general zones, A – G. You are included in the first 
three zones and will always receive pages to those 
zones. The Administrator optionally subscribes you to 
Zones A – G.    
Place a Group Page
In addition to the default groups noted above, you 
can place a Group Page to any zone you have 
been subscribed to by the managedIP Administrator. 
The default page group is All Page, although the 
Administrator may configure an alternative default 
group. 
 
To place a group page:
1)  While on-hook, press the Paging soft key to  
display Paging Groups List.  
2)  Select the desired page group and press Page  
soft key.  
3)   After hearing the tone, make the announcement 
using the speakerphone or the handset.
4)  When page is complete, press End Page soft key 
or hang up. 
 
 
Note: To place a page to your default page 
group, press the Paging soft key for 1-2 seconds, 
bypassing step (2).  
Receive a Group Page
When a phone is paged, you will hear a short alerting 
tone from the speaker. The phone will display who the 
page is coming from and the zone it is associated 
with.  
While receiving a group page:
1)  To end the page while in progress, press the End 
Page soft key.
2)  To place the page on hold, press the Hold  
soft key.  
3)  If on an active call and the phone has been 
configured for Call Waiting on Group Page, you will 
hear a brief tone and the display will update with 
the paging information. Simply scroll to the waiting 
page announcement and press the Accept soft 
key. The active call will automatically be placed on 
hold to allow the page announcement to come 
through. 
Note: Emergency pages will automatically 
broadcast to your phone at a pre-set volume level 
regardless of whether an active call is occurring 
or the phone is in the Do Not Disturb mode. Priority 
pages will automatically broadcast in a similar 
manner, but will not override the Do Not Disturb 
setting.
