Shift 1, Shift 2 and Shift 3 Pagers (Figure 9)
Enter a Pager ID for each of the message types and
shifts being used. Each shift has three Pager IDs:
• The Active message is sent to the first Pager ID.
• The Pulse 1 (slow pulse) message is sent to the
second(middle)PagerID.
• The Pulse 2 (fast pulse) message is sent to the third
PagerID.
The Shift Schedule checkbox in the Global Settings
screen determines which shifts must have Pager IDs
assigned:
• Ifyouchecked ShiftSchedule inthe GlobalSettings
screen, fill in Shift 1, Shift 2 and Shift 3 Pagers.
• If you did not check Shift Schedule in the Global
Settings screen, fill in Shift 1 Pager.
Use this formula to convert the pager’s CAP code to its
corresponding Pager ID (add leading zeros to make 7
digits): PagerID =[(pager’s CAPcode ×8)+10000]
If a shift’s message type is not being used, enter 7 zeros
as its Pager ID.

If a shift is not being used, enter 7 zeros as its Pager ID.
Repeat—Choices are 0–5. Do not use the RUR setting
(Repeat until Reset), because it cancels escalations.
Interval—Choices are 2, 5, 10, 15, 20 or 30 minutes; and
1 or 2 hours.
