Instruction manual
Paging System Access
System 25 supports all AT&T PagePac* voice paging systems. The following are the most
common interface arrangements for System 25 and AT&T voice paging systems.
PagePac 20 (with ZoneMate): This paging system interfaces with either a ground start or
loop start trunk port. No additional equipment is required. Zone paging is provided by the
ZoneMate.
PagePac 20 (without ZoneMate): The PagePac 20 PowerMate may be used alone as a single
zone paging amplifier.
If the PowerMate is used without a ZoneMate, each PowerMate
requires either a port on an Auxiliary Trunk CP (with an Auxiliary Trunk Interface and a
Paging/Dial Dictation Interface), or a port on a Loop, Ground, or T/R/analog CP, and a
Paging System Adapter. Zone paging is provided by the Auxiliary Trunk CP, if used. Each
of the three auxiliary ports available for paging system access may connect to a paging
system, providing up to three paging zones.
PagePac VS: PagePac VS may be interfaced with System 25 by means of a loop start trunk
port or a tip/ring station line port.
PagePac VS provides a built-in interface card which
cannot be removed or changed. No other interface options are supported for PagePac VS.
PagePac Voice Paging Systems: The larger, complete paging systems in our product line are
collectively known as PagePac Voice Paging Systems.
They are currently available in sizes
ranging from 50 Watts to 200 Watts and, when ordered as complete systems, are shipped
with a Type C Applique. This Type C Applique may be optioned during installation to
interface with a ground start trunk port, loop start trunk port, or a tip/ring station line port.
PagePac Voice Paging Amplicenter: The Amplicenter is the amplifier component of the
complete PagePac Voice Paging System.
If the Amplicenter is used alone as a single zone
paging amplifier it requires either a port on an Auxiliary Trunk CP (with an Auxiliary Trunk
Interface and a Paging/Dial Dictation Interface) or a Paging System Adapter. Zone paging is
provided by the Auxiliary Trunk CP, if used with multiple Amplicenter. Each of the three
ports available for paging system access may connect to a paging system, providing up to
three paging zones.
Paging is particularly useful when used in conjunction with the Park feature. When a user is
away from his or her location and receives a call, the call can be answered and parked by
another user. The called party can then be paged and told what extension number to call to
retrieve the parked call. The called party can then retrieve the call from any voice terminal.
Interactions
The following features interact with Paging System Access.
Direct Inward Dialing (DID): A DID call may access a paging code. This allows an outside
user to dial in and utilize the Paging System. Dial restricting the paging code will block this
interaction.
