Overview
This general purpose text message local paging system is typically used in industrial, office, retail, church nursery or clinical applications where specific text messages need to be composed on-the-fly and sent to inconspicuous, silent pagers for staff, customers, guests, parents or patients or anyone who need to be issued a pager only while they're nearby.
This unique system combines the T7460 Freedom transmitter with a full alpha keyboard and text display pagers (small pagers with multi-line text displays that vibrate or beep and are clipped to belts or put in pockets). It is the simplest and least expensive system available for writing text messages as needed and transmitting them locally.
- Compose short, on-the-fly, specific text messages to staff, customers, patients or nursery parents quickly and economically.
- Ensure patient privacy by eliminating the need to use a PA system.
- Pager response is immediate because the transmitter signals pagers directly instead of using national pager networks which may bog down.
- Increase staff productivity, knowing that they can be texted and updated when needed or not forced to stand by for meetings that do not start on time.
- Give parents and patients freedom to roam and peace of mind by knowing they will be reached as soon as necessary without constantly checking in. Send them status updates and specific information on where to go when called.
- Range is enough for large buildings and small campuses and may be extended with repeaters.
- Address up to 999 pagers. (This listing comes with one pager with options for five and ten pagers but you can order any number of pagers and add new pagers at any time.)
- Easy to install- no wiring, construction or programming necessary.
- No monthly fees or unit charges for local pages.
- Optional global cell phone paging by voice or texting is available via internet connection. (Message unit charges apply for use of the global cell network but there are no monthly fees.
No installation or programming required: Pagers arrive at your location ready to use. Just set the transmitter and keyboard where it belongs, plug it into your wall socket, distribute the pagers and you're good to go.
LRS pagers are great for use in hospitals and medical offices. Pagers help assure patient privacy because patient names do not have to be called out in public as their turns come up. Improve the wait experience and reduce anxiety by sending status updates. LRS transmitters have the range and power to be effective in large buildings. Transmitter repeaters are available for situations that require extra coverage.
Automobile service is another great application for LRS guest pagers, as they allow customers to wander nearby, up to 3/4 miles away, until their cars are ready.
How Local Paging Works
Pagers are numbered and you keep records of who gets which pager. Compose short text messages on a regular full keyboard, enter the pager number of the receiving pager and send. The transmitter sends radio signals directly to the pager and the pager is set off immediately. For direct paging, no phone lines are required and no national pager network is involved to slow operations down or create monthly charges.
You can also mix in non-text pagers with your system to reduce cost. Star pagers are usually used to send simple signals that may mean "go to the receptionist", "go to the nursery" or "call the operator". They usually simply vibrate. They also have four lights that can be set in different combinations for more message flexibility. Star pagers do not display text messages.
Cell Phone Paging by Voice or Texting
If you have an internet connection and optional message service unit bundles, the T7460 Freedom Transmitter can also be used to send voice or text messages so you can
page by voice or text to cell phones instead by pagers. This way you can page anyone with a cell phone anywhere they may go at any distance and they don't need to bother to return their pagers back to you. Note- optional blocks of message units are available to enable this feature.
