Push to Talk
Push to Talk Overview
Note
The Push-to-Talk (PTT) option is available on the 3626 phone only.
The PTT feature enables your 3626 phone to operate in PTT broadcast mode in addition to the standard
phone operation.
The 3626 phone supports eight multicast channels with the current channel saved in the memory of your
phone. To initiate a PTT call, press the PTT button on the right side of your phone. All 3626 phones that
are monitoring that channel will hear the transmission.
The PTT dialogue is interrupted when you answer a PBX call. When the PBX call is ended, PTT
dialogue resumes (if on an active call).
PTT functionality for the 3626 phone, can be allowed or disallowed using the Admin menu. If allowed,
you can enable or disable locally, set the channel, tone and audio volume. If disallowed, the menu for
PTT does not appear on the Admin menu or if no channel is enabled on the Admin menu.
Channel
You can enable any PTT channel that has been allowed in the Admin menu by entering the
corresponding number from the keypad. If PTT has been enabled on the phone, the default channel is
the lowest allowed channel as set in the Admin menu.
Enable/Disable
Enable turns on PTT mode and disable turns it off. PTT is disabled by default.
Note
If PTT is allowed in the Admin menu and is enabled on your phone, standby battery pack life is
decreased to approximately 30 hours.

The Audio volume setting may be overridden by adjusting volume while you are on a PTT call.
