Send Pager Message Initiator

Send Pager Message tells the CIC Paging Server to send a page to a TAP compatible paging service. This initiator starts the PagingDefault handler. Send Pager Message Initiator starts when CIC generates a Send notification for a Paging object. This occurs when someone sends a page specifying only the Carrier Phone Number and Pager ID. PagingDefault.ihd uses this initiator.
