PTT call to multiple devices
When there are multiple handsets registered to the phone system,

a maximum of one-to-three calls when six or more handsets are
feature. Other handsets can only use PTT for one-to-one calls.

Connecting to group....
f Press PTT. Press TONE followed by # (pound key). The
handset shows Connecting to group....
When the connection is made, both the caller and the destination
parties hear a beep. The speakerphones on all other devices
automatically activate.
2. You need to press and hold PTT when you want to speak. Speak
towards the handset. Your voice is broadcast to all devices.
3. Release PTT after speaking.
4. Any extension can reply (see Answer a PTT call on page 49).
Note: After PTT on the handset is released, the PTT call remains open for a short time. If no
one presses PTT on the handset within ten seconds, the PTT call ends automatically.
