Instructions for Paging

To page someone at Loyola, dial 6-8777 from a campus phone or 708-216-8777 from an outside line. You will be prompted to enter the pager number you are dialing and hit the # sign. After that you will be prompted to enter in the number that you want to be called back at. If you have a pager number, you can "tag" your page with that number by typing the return number then * and then your pager number. Say my pager number is 12345 and I want to be called back at 6-7890, I would enter 67890*12345#. This shows up on the pager as 67890-12345.

Text paging

To send a text page, simply send an email to the ten digit text page number followed by @page.metrocall.com. For example, I could send an email to 7087654321@page.metrocall.com and your email text would show up on that pager. TeXt pages are limited to a few lines.
