Emergency Calls

PTT Pro for Android
supports emergency calls, which are routed to a specific PTT group designated as the emergency group.
Emergency calls can be initiated through an onscreen button or a physical button depending on the application and device configuration.
A PTT emergency call may also be originated by sending the Emergency Call intent from another Android application. Refer to the
Workcloud Communication PTT Pro for Android Configuration Guide
for the intent format and operation of the client. The intent can be generated using StageNow as described at https://techdocs.zebra.com/mx/intent/. The intent can be sent immediately, scheduled, or triggered by pressing a button or sensor.
  • The emergency call will be started or ended immediately upon receipt of the intent by
    PTT Pro for Android
    .
  • If a PTT call is active when this intent is sent,
    Workcloud Communication PTT Pro
    will end the active PTT call before initiating the emergency call.
  • When ending the emergency call through this intent, the emergency call will end, but the PTT call will not. The user will need to manually end the PTT call to exit from the current PTT call session.
