Group Paging

142 025-9034AA

Group Paging Flow

The following sequence of steps is followed by the Series 2000 paging terminal when

calling a subscriber marked as a Terminal Group Page:

1. Phone caller picks up phone and calls terminal.

2. Terminal detects phone line activity and answers, going off-hook.

3. Terminal takes in Subscriber ID, looks it up in the Subscriber Database and finds

its Status = G (group page) (If ID is not found in database, caller will hear page-

reject tones)

4. If Security Code is required, caller is prompted for one.

5. Play Welcome voice prompt if Welcome = “S” or “C”. Save Priority, Voice Limit,

Display Limit, Voice Prompt information from Subscriber ID.

6. If Voice Limit is non-zero, caller is prompted for voice message, which is stored

away. (Caller can press * key for no voice message.)

7. If Display limit is non-zero, caller is prompted for display message, which is stored

away. (Caller can press # key for no display message.)

8. Play Thank You voice prompt if Thank You = “Y”. Play page-accepted tones.

9. Terminal creates a paging message for each Subscriber ID in the group in the

Group Database, using the stored voice and/or display messages obtained from the

caller.

The Series 2000 paging terminal does the logical thing with the voice/display messages

obtained from the caller. If voice is stored and the pager is capable of voice, then a tone +

voice page is sent; otherwise, tone-only. If display is stored and the pager is capable of

display, then a tone + display page is sent; otherwise, tone-only. If both voice + display are

stored, then the pager is sent whichever message type it can handle. If no message is

stored, then a tone-only page is sent; unless the Send Empty Message field is not checked

in the paging format window, then the page is discarded. If the individual pagers have

multiple function codes, which produce multiple alerts, be sure to fill in the Group

Function Code in the mode window for each individual pager.

Table 14 summarizes the type of message transmitted depending upon the pager capability

and the stored message.
