Broadcasting Messages Using Push-to-Talk and Group
Paging
The Group Paging and Push-to-Talk (PTT) features enable you to broadcast a
message to as many people as have subscribed to a channel or have been
placed in a group. Your system administrator can set up both features on your
phone.
Group Paging mode enables you to broadcast a one-way announcement to
people subscribed to a paging group. The people receiving the announcement
can’t respond to the message.
PTT mode enables you to broadcast a message to people subscribed to a
channel. The people receiving the message can respond to the message by
broadcasting a message over the same channel. In this way, PTT is a
collaborative broadcast mode.

Paging mode) or Channels (for PTT mode). Your system administrator may
assign a label to each group or channel that easily identifies the phones in the
group or channel (for example, All, HR Dept, Shipping Staff, or Executives).
Each group or channel will have one of the following priorities:
• Normal (for Groups/Channels 1-23)—Broadcasts sent to

1.
• Priority (for Group/Channel 24)—Broadcasts sent to Group/Channel 24
are considered Priority broadcasts. All phones receive Priority broadcasts
unless Do Not Disturb is enabled. If a phone receives a Priority broadcast
while an Emergency broadcast is already playing, the Priority broadcast is
