3300 PAGE ALL SETS 1

[AKskier]

Hello

I've got a 3300 9.0 installed in a small hospital, and the customer is asking if I can set up a button that with one touch will allow them to page all sets. Right now i have a voice call button on the sets and after pressing that they have to hit 00 to generate the page. Apparently pressing three buttons takes too long. I believe there is a way to do it, but i'm stumped. Any suggestions would be great. thanks

Why not make a CDE speedcall to dial the Feature access code for page then 00....For instance if your FAC for page is #* .....Make the cde speedcall value #*00 or maybe play around with #*,00 . Im not actually sure if the comma will add delay or not but thought I would throw it out there anyways.

watch ou if they are IP sets there is a rather low limit on the max number of sets..

I tried here on the 3300 in our office and it worked without the comma. you are unable to enter a comma in the directory number field. I set it up to test for the customer but haven't heard back from them yet. If it doesn't work maybe i will have to remove some sets from the group.

thanks for the help.

Depending on your system type and cards installed the system will only page a limited number of IP phones regardless of how many you have programmed. If the phones are the old style digital sets, the limit is much higher. With IP sets the system will allow you to program more than the maximum but will dynamically choose only the maximum when the page is initiated.

The number that can be paged is as low as 32 up to a max of 64. Even at that, these values are typically never achieved as the actually number depends on how many E2T channels are in use at the time of the Page.

e.g. Any type of 3300 CX has a maximum of 32 IP phones in a Page group. If 10 Calls are in progress however, using 10 E2T resources, the maximum would now be 27. 10 other people listening to background music? Now the limit is 22.

There is a solution to allow as many IP sets in a paging group as you like (it's almost unlimited).

It's designed specifically for Mitel.

No - I don't work for them or make money from them. They are part of the Mitel family, but are not branded as Mitel. They work out of Mitel's office in Kanata.

It is a relatively small site and it seems to work fine. They were happy. Thanks for the help
