Priority Talkgroup; Ptt Scan State - Iridium extreme ptt User Manual

Priority Talkgroup

If a Priority Talkgroup has been defined and provisioned for your device,
any communication on that talkgroup is prioritized above all other
talkgroups on the device. This means that regardless of current activity —
talking on another talkgroup, listening to another talkgroup, or scanning
for talkgroup activity — when the Priority Talkgroup is started by a
member of the talkgroup, all devices with that talkgroup as their Priority
Talkgroup enter the LISTENING status for that talkgroup automatically.
Once in the Priority Talkgroup, you may press the right soft key, labeled
Ignore, to leave the current session. You then resume monitoring the
Home Talkgroup and may initiate or participate in communication on any
other provisioned talkgroups.
If the Priority Talkgroup session ends and the talkgroup is restarted, the
device is brought into the Priority Talkgroup session automatically as a
participant.
Note: When the Priority Talkgroup is active it appears with white text on a
black background and has exclamation points on each side of the Priority
Talkgroup.
Additionally, during use, a unique set of audible tones will play to
distinguish Priority Talkgroup audio from standard Talkgroup audio.

PTT Scan State

Activate Scan State to scan for activity on all talkgroups. In Scan State,
activity is played for any of the talkgroups for which your device is
a provisioned. If there is no activity on a provisioned talkgroup, that
talkgroup is skipped in the sampling of talkgroup activity.
Scan State samples activity on all active talkgroups in sequential order.
As additional talkgroups become active, they are scanned within the
rotation. When a talkgroup ends communication, it is removed from the
