On Call  Groups

r  Pro has  a feature built  into it that can be very useful  in an on call  service  environment.   After

recipients  are added to a group,  a schedule  of recipients  can  be setup  defining  when  each recipient  is  on call

(starting  day and time, and ending  day and time).   When a message  is  sent to the group, the schedule  is

consulted  to see  which recipient or recipients  the message  should  be sent to.  This way, only the recipients

that are scheduled  to be on call  receive the page.

example  messages  can be sent to digital/cellular/mobile/pcs  phones,  pager cards  for portable  computers,

Personal  Information  Managers (PIMs), billboards,  and many other  wireless  messaging  devices.
