Avaya Desktop Charger, 3626 manual Push to Talk PTT

Avaya 3626 Wireless Telephone, Desktop Charger and Gang Charger with CCMS

Push to Talk (PTT) – continued

Receiving Upon receiving a PTT transmission, the phone plays the “receiving alert” sound and enters the receive state.

In this state the phone receives all conversations on the selected channel. The phone will ignore the Talk key while in the receive state. The screen shows the current active channel, the caller ID information of the current transmitter, and an indication that the phone is receiving a broadcast transmission. The caller ID is protocol specific. In most cases it is simply the extension number programmed in the phone from the on-hook user menu.

At the end of a transmission, the phone enters the waiting state where it monitors the channel for up to 10 seconds and displays “Waiting” on the screen. If no other transmission occurs within 10 seconds the phone plays the “end call” sound and reverts to idle state.

Change PTT volume Use the Up and Down buttons to raise or lower PTT volume. A separate volume is maintained for PTT calls with the current volume selection retained in memory.

Muting a PTT call To mute a current call, press the Mute soft key. This brings up a Mute Two-Way Radio? prompt. Press the Yes or No soft key. The prompt disappears after 3 seconds if the user doesn’t confirm either Yes or No.

Mute only affects the current call and the phone will play subsequent PTT calls. Mute does not allow the user to use the Wireless Telephone’s keypad for anything else, including an OAI application.

The Mute soft key turns into an Unmute soft key while in the mute state and can be used to unmute the PTT call (the confirmation prompt is displayed first).

When the next PTT call period starts the audio is automatically unmuted.

Early termination of a To terminate incoming broadcasts, press the Terminate soft PTT call key and answer Yes to the confirmation prompt. Push-to-

talk audio is immediately stopped and the phone exits the PTT session. No other Wireless Telephone is affected. Only the current call is terminated for this handset. When the next PTT call period starts, the Wireless Telephone is again in the receive state. You may rejoin a still-active session by initiating a PTT call.

Users should disable the PTT feature in the on-hook user menu if they desire to not receive any further PTT calls.
