Change channel subscriptions
Only the channels that you’re subscribed to display in your PTT app. Only the administrator can change what
channels display.
Your administrator controls PTT channel subscriptions. You can see which channels you’re subscribed to
and which you can transmit on, but you can’t change or add to the list.
Note
Procedure
Contact your administrator to change your subscriptions and transmission permissions.
Send a PTT broadcast
You can send PTT broadcasts over your default PTT channel, or over a different channel. For example, you
may want to send a broadcast over an active PTT session that is on a different channel than your default
channel.
When you’re done speaking and release the PTT button, the phone enters a ten-second wait period. During
this time, the channel is open to receive or send more broadcasts. If no activity occurs within the wait period,
the PTT session closes. The wait period keeps the channel open and gives anyone subscribed to that channel
time to join the conversation.
Before you begin
If your phone is password-protected, unlock your phone to send a PTT broadcast.
For release 1.3(0) or later, your administrator may change the settings so that you can send a PTT broadcast
without unlocking your password-protected phone. Check with your administrator for more details.
Note
Procedure
Step 1 If you’re not on the desired channel, access the PTT app and tap the desired channel from the Channels
tab or click a leg of a conversation from the Activity tab.
Step 2 Press and hold the programmed PTT button.
Step 3 After you hear a beep, hold the phone microphone approximately 2 inches (5 centimeters) from your mouth
and speak.
