This is a new one for me..I met a guy who had his processor replaced under warranty by Avaya so of course they won't help him re-program the buttons. He has a paging speaker with talkback. Says before the power outage, he could press a single button and page. Now he presses a paging button (programmed *71 or *70) which opens up the paging path, but he has to dial 01 to actually page. Says the phone used to say something like 7001 when he went into programming before. I can't figure it out. Any direction would be great.
 
intercom 70 + hold + hold + zone?

It's people like you who generalize.
 
Well, you can't program any digits after the Intercom 70, so that's out.

You could put the actual paging line on a button, and a speed dial button next to it to dial the zone code. Just take the line out of the ALS.


 
He swears he dialed 7001; the button is even labeled that way. And the guy is pretty smart - he had a classic hardware failure where Avaya sent him a new processor and wouldn't help him program it and he figured 80% of it out from the manual. I wonder if the talkback makes it different? One of the few things I can't set up in my office and play with is paging; especially talkback :(
