Chapter 1
Introduction and Key Features
The Push-to-Talk (PTT) application supports two modes: Standard PTT and PTT
Radio. Your administrator assigns one of these modes. This document describes
the Standard PTT Mode. The Standard PTT application mode provides instant
communication to individuals and talkgroups at the push of a button. Here is a
brief description of the key features of Standard PTT Mode:
Alerts
Instant Personal Alert (IPA) Allows you to send a message to another person
asking for a callback.
Missed Call Alert (MCA) Shown whenever you miss an incoming PTT call because
you were either in another PTT call or a regular cellular call. For more
information, see Alerts on page 83.
Dynamic Area-Based Talkgroups Makes talkgroups dynamically available while in
a geographical area. For more information, see Dynamic Area-Based Talkgroups
(Optional) on page 104.
Broadcast Talkgroup Calling Allows designated talkgroup members to make high-
priority one-way calls typically used for making important announcements to
large talkgroups. NOTE: In the PTT application, groups created by the
administrator are also known as talkgroups.
For more information, see Making Broadcast Calls on page 62. Contact and
Talkgroup Management
PTT contacts and talkgroups can be centrally managed by an administrator
(“administrator-managed”) or by you (“personal”). For more information, see
Contacts on page 94 and Talkgroups on page 102.
NOTE: In the PTT application, groups (either created by the subscriber or
administrator) are also known as Talkgroups. Device ID Management Allows login
to the service with a username and password. It also allows multiple users to
share a device. For more information, see User ID and Password User Login on
page 26. Emergency Calling and Alert Allows you to originate or receive an
emergency call and receive an emergency alert. For more information, see
Emergency Calling and Alert (Optional) on page 71. Favorites You can manage
your list of favorites for quick access to contacts and talkgroups. For more
information, see Favorites on page 91. Integrated Secure Messaging Allows a
PTT user to send and receive secure text messages, multimedia content, and
location information to and from other PTT users. For more information, see
Integrated Secure Messaging on page 129.
22
MN009650A01-006 Chapter 1: Introduction and Key Features
Location Tracking Allows a supervisor with Location Capability, turned on by
your administrator at the talkgroup level, to track talkgroup members’
location. For more information, see Supervisor with Location Capability on
page 116.
PTT Calling to Individuals and Talkgroups Allows instant communication to one
or more people at the push of a button. For more information, see Making Calls
on page 59.
Real-Time Presence Allows you to see whether your contacts are available and
ready to receive calls before making a call. You can also indicate if you want
to receive PTT calls to your contacts. For more information, see Real-Time
Presence on page 85.
Supervisory Override Allows a supervisor to take the floor and speak at any
time during a talkgroup call, even if someone else is speaking. For more
information, see Supervisory Override on page 82.
Talkgroup Scanning with Priority Allows the phone of a subscriber to scan
through a list of corporate talkgroups for calls. The higher priority
talkgroup calls take precedence over lower priority talkgroup calls. For more
information, see Talkgroup Scanning on page 110.
Video Streaming Allows you to stream your video in real-time to another user,
typically a dispatcher. For more information, see Video Streaming (Optional)
on page 150.
Wi-Fi support In addition to the broad coverage of PTT service provided by the
cellular data network, you can use PTT over a home, office, or public Wi-Fi
connection. For more information, see PTT over Wi-Fi on page 56.

2.4
User ID and Password User Login
There are steps that you must take to log into the Push-to-Talk (PTT)
application when the PTT service is using device ID management or your network
service provider is not the same as your PTT service provider. Device ID
Management increases security by requiring users to enter a user ID and
password and supports the ability for multiple PTT users to share a device
with another PTT user, for example, between shift workers. For more
information on password requirements, see Setting Your Password on page 27.
NOTE: Your password may expire based on your service provider configuration.
26
MN009650A01-006 Chapter 2: Application Installation and Getting Started
If your network service provider is not the same as your PTT service provider,
you must select Yes when prompted. Failure to correctly answer this question
may result in your PTT service not working correctly.
NOTE: The Device ID Management supports release 9.1 PTT applications and
later. It is required for cross-carrier users and tablet users. Other than
shift users, you can also use Device ID management to log into multiple
devices a user may possess. For example, a tablet and phone owned by the same
user. However, the PTT user can have only one active session at any point in
time. Once logged in to one device, a session from another previously logged
in device is deactivated. The user ID is either an email ID or a PTT number.
2.4.1
Logging in the First Time
Procedure: 1. Tap the Username or email field. 2. Using your on-screen
keyboard, type the PTT number or email. TIP: Tap the Refresh icon (circular
arrow icon) located in the upper right to clear all values entered. 3. Tap the
Password field. 4. Enter your temporary password using your on-screen
keyboard. NOTE: If you forgot your password, tap Forgot Password? link and go
to Forgetting Your Password on page 29. 5. Optional: On private devices, if
you do not want to enter a user ID and password every time, tap the Remember
User check box. 6. To log into the PTT application, tap the Log In button. The
Update Password screen is displayed.
7. Optional: If the application has been idle on the Log In screen for a
while, you may see a timeout error. Enter your user ID and password again.
This security feature is intended to prevent unauthorized access. NOTE: Shared
device session expires after 24 hours or time configured by your service
provider from the first time you log in. You need to relogin each time the
shared device session expires.
2.4.2
Setting Your Password
During the first time login, you are prompted to enter your password. You must
re-enter it each time you login. Prerequisites: Ensure that your password
meets the following requirements: At least 10 characters At least one
lowercase letter (a-z) At least one uppercase letter (A-Z) At least one number
(0-9) At least one of these special characters @#$%^&+=
TIP: Tap the Refresh icon (circular arrow icon) located in the upper-right to

contacts and talkgroups are displayed. This behavior is normal. If you have a
user ID and password and have selected Remember User on the Log In screen, you
do not need to enter your user ID and password again. If you forget your
password, see Forgetting Your Password on page 29. For more information on
password requirements, see Setting Your Password on page 27.
