Paging

The actions listed in this section relate to scheduling pager notifications for the current mailbox.

Note: Any choice listed here that does not appear in the drop-down list box can be typed in manually.

The table below provides a brief overview of each action, listing the action, an example, and a brief description.  More detailed descriptions are provided in the sections that follow.

Page

The Page option is used to schedule one or more pager notifications for the current mailbox, using the digits provided for the pager display text.

Including digits for the pager display is optional.  If they are not specified, the system will attempt to use the caller ID instead.  To specify the digits you want sent, type a space after the 'e' in 'Page' and then type in one or more valid DTMF digits. Any non-DTMF digits or characters will be stripped out of the string.

Note: The DV2000/DV4 will automatically add the mailbox number followed by an asterisk to the pager display string.  So in the first example shown in the table above, if the mailbox is 420, then the pager display text will be 420*.  In the second example, it would be 420*5551234.

When scheduling the pager notification, DV2000/DV4 will schedule a page for every active notification template assigned to the mailbox that both has the event type Relay Page and uses the technique Relay Page.

Relay Page

The Relay Page option is used when you want to query the caller for a callback number and then schedule a pager notification using that number as the pager display text.

After getting the callback number from the caller, the system will schedule a pager notification for the first active notification template it finds where the event trigger is Relay Page and the notification technique is also Relay Page.

If no active template of the correct type is found, the notification will not be sent.
