Initiating a Group Call

A group call is a call that is sent from one device to all devices on the same Talk Group.
Actual Group Call and Private Response buttons are dependent upon client configuration.
Selection of Profile and Talk Groups are dependent upon client configuration.
On PTT Express client v4.0.x, if the application is in the background, pressing the PTT button brings the application to the foreground to initiate a Group Call.
To initiate a Group Call:
  1. If configured, select a Profile.
  2. Select a Talk Group.
  3. Press and hold the configured Group Call button.
  4. Listen for the talk tone to play. If you hear the busy tone, release the Group Call button and wait for a moment before you press and hold the Group Call button to make another attempt.
  5. If you do not hear a tone, make sure the PTT Express client is enabled and on the network.
  6. Start talking immediately after the talk tone plays.
  7. Release the Group Call button when you finish talking.
