Push to Talk (PTT) – continued
Receiving Upon receiving a PTT transmission, the phone plays the
“receiving alert” sound and enters the receive state.
In this state the phone receives all conversations on the
selected channel. The phone will ignore the Talk key while
in the receive state. The screen shows the current active
channel, the caller ID information of the current transmitter,
and an indication that the phone is receiving a broadcast
transmission. The caller ID is protocol specific. In most
cases it is simply the extension number programmed in the
phone from the on-hook user menu.
At the end of a transmission, the phone enters the waiting
state where it monitors the channel for up to 10 seconds and
displays “Waiting” on the screen. If no other transmission
occurs within 10 seconds the phone plays the “end call”
sound and reverts to idle state.
Change PTT volume Use the Up and Down buttons to raise or lower PTT
volume. A separate volume is maintained for PTT calls with
the current volume selection retained in memory.
Muting a PTT call To mute a current call, press the Mute soft key. This brings
up a Mute Two-Way Radio? prompt. Press the Yes or No
soft key. The prompt disappears after 3 seconds if the user
doesn’t confirm either
Yes or No .
Mute only affects the current call and the phone will play
subsequent PTT calls. Mute does not allow the user to use
the Wireless Telephone’s keypad for anything else,
including an OAI application.
The
Mute soft key turns into an Unmute soft key while in
the mute state and can be used to unmute the PTT call (the
confirmation prompt is displayed first).
When the next PTT call period starts the audio is
automatically unmuted.
Early termination of a
PTT call
To terminate incoming broadcasts, press the Terminate soft
key and answer Yes to the confirmation prompt. Push-to-
talk audio is immediately stopped and the phone exits the
PTT session. No other Wireless Telephone is affected. Only
the current call is terminated for this handset. When the next
PTT call period starts, the Wireless Telephone is again in
the receive state. You may rejoin a still-active session by
initiating a PTT call.
Users should disable the PTT feature in the on-hook user
menu if they desire to not receive any further PTT calls
.
