Push-to-Talk (PTT) and Paging
April, 2011 | 1725-36720-001_RevB 47
Setting PTT Alerts
PTT alerting is set within each profile. Navigate to Settings > User Settings > Notification Profiles >
[profile] > Alerting and scroll to the PTT alerting options. To customize PTT alerts, see Customizing a
Profile.
You may set different or identical PTT options for starting and ending transmissions with the PTT Start
Transmission and PTT End Transmission options. You may customize tone, alert, and vibration for each
mode.
To set alert tone volume:
• Select Tone Volume and use the soft keys to adjust the slider.
To set alert tone pattern:
• Select Tone Pattern and select the alert tone from the list of options.
To enable vibration:
To enhance the alerting of a PTT broadcast, you may enable PTT vibrate. When you enable PTT vibrate,
the handset will vibrate three times whenever a PTT broadcast is received, whether the handset is in
standby or in a call. If in a call, the phone will issue the chirp alert. The vibration does not replace any
PTT tone pattern already set.
Select Vibrate and select the vibrate option from the list.
To set the handset for PTT vibrate only, enable the vibrate option and set the alert tone
pattern to Silent Ring.
Paging Contacts
The Paging feature allows the handset to make a telephone call to a specified group of contacts as
defined by the system administrator who can make several different groups available for paging. By
default, subscriptions to groups 1, 24, and 25 are enabled. Contact your system administrator for
information.
