Chapter 3: Using Advanced Features
You’ve mastered the basic features of your phone, but want to know all about the other
interesting and powerful features your phone has to offerThis chapter shows you how to:
• Group paging
• Group Paging
• Lock your phone
Group Paging
The Group Paging feature enables you to make pages—one-way audio announcements—to
users subscribed to a page group. Your system administrator can set up this feature on your
phone.
Your system administrator can define up to 25 paging groups for Group Paging. Your system
administrator may assign a label to each group that easily identifies the phones in the group,
such as All, HR Dept, Shipping Staff, or Executives. Each group will have one of the following
priorities:
Normal By default, broadcasts sent to Group 1 to 23 are considered Normal broadcasts. If two
users begin a broadcast on the same group at the same time, the phone with the lower serial
number will continue to transmit while the other phone will enter the receiving state. By default,
all phones are configured to receive broadcasts sent to Group 1.
Priority By default, broadcasts sent to Group 24 are considered Priority broadcasts. A Priority
broadcast will interrupt Normal broadcasts or active calls. All phones receive Priority broadcasts
unless Do Not Disturb is enabled. Phones play Priority broadcasts at the phone’s current audio
level.
Emergency By default, broadcasts sent to Group 25 are considered Emergency broadcasts.
An Emergency broadcast will interrupt Normal broadcasts, Priority broadcasts, and active calls
and plays out at near maximum volume even if Do Not Disturb is turned on.
Group Paging Mode
Your phone may be enabled to operate in a broadcast mode called Group Paging mode. In this
mode, you can broadcast one-way announcements to a specified group of phones, called a
Paging Group. In Group Paging mode, users must subscribe to Paging Groups to send and
receive pages.
