Push to Talk (PTT)
Welcome to PTT
Push to Talk (PTT) from AT&T lets you see
whether your family, friends, and co-workers
are available to talk before you call. You can
reach them individually or all at once via a
group call, all in an instant. Read on to hear
about all of the features AT&T Push to Talk has
to offer.
Initialize your PTT Service
Begin initializing your PTT service by pressing
the PTT Key (black button on left side of phone)
or by entering Push to Talk(1) from the Main
Menu.
You will then register your name and, once
initialization completes, begin adding your
family, friends, and co-workers who are also
AT&T PTT subscribers.
PTT Tips
PTT is a great way of communicating instantly
with the people who are important to you.
Here are a few tips to help you.
1. Make sure you are holding the PTT Key
down while you talk.
2. Make sure you don't start talking until
AFTER you hear the tone.
3. Note the location of the speakerphone and
microphone to make sure you aren't covering
either with your grip.
4. PTT calls can be easily started with the flip
closed. During a PTT call with the flip open
and speaker OFF, the call will be terminated
when the flip is closed. When the speaker is
ON, closing the flip will not terminate the
call.
5. Turn the volume up high to more clearly hear
your PTT calls.
