Description
The speaker of a talkgroup may hold the
floor for 20 seconds. After 20 seconds,
"Time Expired" is displayed, the Release
Tone is played and the floor is made
available to the talkgroup participants.
When the floor is granted to the user of
a device, the Talk Tone (three ascending
notes) is played to that user.
A talkgroup is a collection of Iridium
Extreme® PTT devices that have been
provisioned to transmit content to each
other within a specified geographic
area(s).
A talkgroup participant is an Iridium
Extreme® PTT device that is active in the
talkgroup. The active participant's device
will display OPEN, TALKING or LISTENING.
The Talkgroups List screen in the Iridium
Extreme® PTT device allows the user
to see the list of talkgroups for which
the device is provisioned, review which
talkgroup is defined as the Priority
Talkgroup, see the activity on the
provisioned talkgroups, and switch to a
new Home Talkgroup.
When a talkgroup is active and a
participant has the floor, the device that
has the floor will display TALKING.
When an Iridium Extreme® PTT device
is in Scan State and none of the device's
talkgroups are active, "Waiting for
Activity" is shown on the screen.
This message is displayed on the device
after the Switch to PTT option has been
selected from the Menu. This is a transient
message.
