WLAN Handsets 2210/2211 configuration
Receiving a PTT transmission
Upon receiving a PTT transmission, the WLAN Handset 2211 plays the
"receiving alert" sound and enters the "receive" state. In this state, the
wireless handset receives all conversations on the selected channel. The
wireless handset ignores the Talk key while in the receive state.
The wireless handset screen displays the current active channel, the Caller ID
information of the current transmitter, and an indication that the wireless
handset is receiving a broadcast transmission. At the end of a transmission,
the wireless handset 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 wireless handset plays the "end
call" sound and reverts to the idle state.
The user can push the Up and Down buttons to raise or lower the volume of
the PTT transmission. A separate volume is maintained for PTT calls with the
current volume selection retained in memory.
To exit a PTT broadcast, press the Terminate soft key and answer Yes to the
confirmation prompt. PTT audio is immediately stopped and the wireless
handset exits the PTT session. No other wireless handset is affected. Only the
current PTT call is terminated for this wireless handset. When another PTT
call starts, the wireless handset is again in the receive state. A still-active
session can be rejoined by initiating a PTT call. See Procedure 14 on
page 111.
Disable the PTT feature in the on-hook User Menu to prevent receiving any
further PTT calls.
Note: PTT dialog is interrupted when an incoming telephone call is
answered. When the telephone call is ended, PTT dialog resumes if an
active PTT call is still transmitting.
