No installation or programming required: Our guest pagers arrive at your location ready to use. Just set the devices where they belong, plug the power supplies into your wall sockets and you're good to go. How Guest Paging Works When guests arrive, they are greeted by a host and given a pager. The host writes the pager number and seating preferences on paper. Guests are free to roam within the pager range (the pagers have an out-of-range alert). If guest go out of range, pagers beep until they get back in range. When tables are ready, the host enters the pager ID into the transmitter keypad and the pager flashes and vibrates. (Various alert styles are selected with the transmitter.) Guests notice the coaster and return to the host, who then shows them to their table. Benefits in All-Purpose Service Restaurant guest pager systems are also great all-purpose local area pagers. These systems are also commonly used in healthcare, childcare, customer traffic control and countless other situations where there is a need to make waiting more manageable for staff and more comfortable for guests: - Patient paging in hospitals and clinics.
- Parent paging in church day care centers.
- Guest paging at day spas.
- Customer paging at auto repair centers.
- Guest paging at golf courses and clubs.
- Staff paging at factories and offices.
- Student registration traffic control.
Guest pagers are great for use in hospitals and medical offices and are widely used for such. Pagers help assure patient privacy because patient names do not have to be called out in public as their turns come up. It makes waiting more comfortable by allowing patients to wander or wait in the cafeteria with a cup of coffee. Automobile service is another great application for guest pagers, as they allow customers to wander nearby, up to one-half mile away, until their cars are ready. Guest pagers are perfect for handing out to the general public because they are extremely tough, hard to ignore and just awkward enough so that people don't take them home by accident. But please note that you are not limited to using the coaster-style pagers shown here-- you can also choose other styles of pagers such as belt-worn or paddle style. (See the photos below. Optional pager styles are priced differently- please call for quotes on custom systems.) ARCT transmitters have the range and power to be effective in large office buildings. Transmitter repeaters are available for situations that require extra coverage by radio. With an internet connection and message unit services, you can reach any cell phone anywhere by voice or text. Additional Pagers This system kit includes 40 guest pagers, an ideal number for restaurants with maximum wait times of one hour with up to forty parties waiting. Additional individual pagers may be purchased separately and we also offer larger systems (see the next section).
