Push to Talk
NOTE: Push to Talk application is not available on all configurations.
Push to Talk (PTT) is a walkie-talkie style service that provides simple communication
with one person or with a group of people having compatible devices. With PTT,
conversations are sent over cellular networks and only one person can talk at a time and
then only by pressing the Push to Talk button. Calling a group of people can be
conducted within set groups already established or created just before the session, by
sending invitation messages among individual PTT participants or for users already
involved in one PTT session. While using PTT, you can use the other functions of the
MC35.
Before you can use PTT, you must define the required PTT service settings. See
“Configuring the PTT Settings” on page 156 for more information.
