User considerations for Chime Paging Over Loudspeakers

Last Updated : Oct 31, 2012 |

Users page by dialing the trunk access code assigned to a zone. For your users’ convenience, you might also want to consider the following options:

  • Add the paging trunk access codes to an abbreviated dialing list and allow users to page using the list.

    Note:

    Don’t use special characters in abbreviated dialing lists used with chime paging.

  • Assign individual trunk access codes to Autodial buttons.

  • Assign individual trunk access codes to Busy buttons. The status lamp tells the user whether or not the trunk is busy.

  • For attendants, you can provide one-button paging access by assigning trunk access codes for paging zones to the Direct Trunk Group Select buttons on the attendant console.

With an appropriate class of restriction, remote callers can also make loudspeaker pages.
