Abstract
A method and apparatus remotely retrieves messages intended for an acknowledge-back pager (400, 700) in a communication system including a fixed portion (100) and the pager (400, 700). The communication system has provisions for interconnection with a user by telephone. The fixed portion (100) accepts (502) a selective call origination from a caller, including a message intended for the pager (400, 700) and sends (504) the message to the pager (400, 700) in response. The pager (400, 700) stores (506) the message within a pager memory (418). Thereafter the fixed portion (100) accepts (508) a selective call origination from the user, including a predetermined retrieval code associated with the pager (400, 700). The fixed portion (100) sends (510) a predetermined retrieval command to the pager (400, 700) in response, and the pager (400, 700) retrieves the message from the pager memory (418) in response. The pager (400, 700) transmits (512) the message retrieved to the fixed portion (100), which then stores (514) the message within a controller memory (232, 602) and sends (514) the message by telephone to the user.
