5.7.1 Join a PTT Call Session
An invitation to join a PTT session can be received in two ways:
• As an incoming call (see 5.1 Answer or Reject a Call on page 35).
• As an alert message (see 7.6 Alert Response Options on page 59).
Both PTT invitation types includes a description and ways to join the session.
To Accept a PTT Invitation
1 Accept the incoming call, or tap Join, on the alert message, to accept the invitation and join
the call.
NOTE: The handset can accept the invitation automatically, start in mute mode, or start in
loudspeaking mode, depending on the configuration of the invitation.
2 The handset is connected to the PTT session, and the push-to-talk call screen is shown. See
5.7.2 Use the PTT Call Screen on page 47 for instructions on how to use the call screen to
communicate in the PTT session.
Accept an Invitation During an Ongoing Call
If a PTT invitation is received during an ongoing call, the call is disconnected and the PTT
session is connected automatically, if the following conditions are true:
• The invitation is configured to be accepted automatically.
NOTE: PTT sessions must be defined in the Device Manager, and messaging
groups in the Unite CM/Unite CS configuration tool. Refer to the
Configuration Manual, Ascom Myco Smartphone, and the Configuration
Manual, Unite Connectivity Manager/Configuration Manual,
Unite Communication Server. For further details about push-to-talk, refer to
the Function Description, Push to Talk.
NOTE: A PTT session invitation can be configured to be automatically accepted by
the handsets in the group. Refer to the Configuration Manual, Ascom Myco
Smartphone for details.
NOTE: Invitations disappear from the screen, if not accepted within 60 seconds. All
previously received invitations are stored in the alert view, and can be joined
later (as long as the session remains active), see 5.7.4 Rejoin a PTT Call
Session on page 48.
