Talkback Paging

Introduction

This section describes how the Talkback Paging option (B08) operates in the Series 2000

paging terminal. A talkback page is a two-way communication between the caller and the

called party. The caller pages and then converses with the paged party.

The recipient of a talkback page typically carries a handheld mobile radio rather than a

pager. A talkback page might also be received by a mobile radio in a vehicle. This can be

very convenient if the recipient of the page is likely to have a difficult time getting to a

phone.

Limitations of Talkback Paging

There are some limitations to talkback paging in the Series 2000. These follow:

1. Calls can be received by the talkback pager but cannot be originated by the

talkback pager.

2. Talkback paging is restricted to half-duplex and full-duplex radio systems. The

mobile radio must be full or half-duplex; the base station must be full duplex,

capable of receiving while transmitting.

3. The call limit and mobile activity timeouts, and associated warning thresholds, are

set on a per station card basis.

Talkback interacts with the PageSaver modes as follows:

• Paging - talkback paging is a special case of paging. The only restriction is that

sequenced paging is not allowed, otherwise it is fully compatible.

• Insure - if there is no answer to the talkback page the insured mode can be

forwarded to, and an insured page left.

• Mailbox - if there is no answer to the talkback page the mailbox mode can be

forwarded to, and a voice message can be left.
