PTT call to a group of handsets
When there are multiple handsets registered to the phone system, PTT supports
one-to-group calls. PTT supports a maximum of one-to-four calls when two to
five handsets are registered, and a maximum of one-to-three calls when six or
more handsets are registered. The first four registered handsets will be able to
use this feature. Other handsets can only use PTT for one-to-one calls.
To call a group of handsets:
1. You have three ways to call a group of handsets. When the
handset is not in use:
Press and hold PUSH TO TAL� until your handset screen
shows Connecting to group...
Press PUSH TO TAL�. Press qCID or pDIR to choose Group. Press
MENU/SELECT or press and hold PUSH TO TAL� until your handset screen
shows Connecting to group...
Press PUSH TO TAL�. Press TONE followed by # (pound key). The screen
shows Connecting to group...
When the connection is made, both the caller and the destination parties hear
a beep. The speakerphones on all other handsets automatically activate.
2. You need to press and hold PUSH TO TAL� when you want to speak. Speak
towards the handset. Your voice is broadcast to all eligible handsets.
3. Release PUSH TO TAL� after speaking.
4. Any extension can reply (see Answer a PTT call on the next page).
NOTE: After PUSH TO TAL� is released, the PTT call remains open for a short time. If no
one presses PUSH TO TAL� within 10 seconds, the PTT call ends automatically.
