Overview
This item is a simple paging system with one yellow Butler XP one-button transmitter and one alphanumeric text display pager.
Place the Butler XP transmitter anywhere, indoors or out, so anyone may contact your staff with the push of a button. This system is ideal for simple paging requirements such as push-for-service service counter buttons, poolside service or at locked entrance doors as a wireless doorbell. In restaurants, use this to call the manager to the hostess station or cashier's counter when things get either too hectic to look around or so slow that the staff seems to disappear.
The Butler XP transmitter is weatherproof, tamper resistant and battery-powered so it can be mounted and kept outdoors. It comes in yellow, black and gray case colors and a wide choice of secure mounts such as steel wall plates, nylon tie wraps or velcro bands. The text message it sends can say where the page is from.
The basic system arrives preset to send the message "Service 1" or you can customize the message with the optional programming kit. (A Windows PC with USB connection is required to use the kit.)
When using multiple Butler XP's, the text messages are often used to call staff to specific locations with custom messages that say where the call was from: which table, door, work station, etc. Messages can be up to 200 characters long.
Transmitters can call one or more pagers. The call button can be programmed to call any single pager or groups of pagers.

When used with multiple pagers, the Butler XP:
- Can send to any designated single pager, any two pagers ("shadow pager" feature), or pager groups (up to 99 groups).
- Can automatically re-page with the ability to program how often you want it to re-page (from 10 seconds to every 5 minutes, up to 10 minutes maximum).
- The re-paging feature alerts an additional manager pager if the original page is left uncancelled.
Automatic Repaging: Butler XP transmitters have an advanced automatic repaging feature to help ensure staff response. You can program the Butler XPs so that they automatically keep paging up to three times or until the page is cancelled (which is done by touching the pager to the Butler XP). You can program whether you want the feature off or on, and if on, how long between re-pages (from 10 seconds to every 5 minutes). If the page is not cancelled, the page can "roll over" to another pager. Also, a second pager can be signalled along with the first.
