Change your default paging group, update page group subscriptions, and enable pages to play during active calls on your
phone.
Note:
The features described in this section require access to the Basic settings menu on the phone. If your phone
requires a password to access the Basic settings menu, contact your system administrator for assistance customizing your
phone.

pending state instead.

Broadcasting Messages with Push-To-Talk
The Push-To-Talk (PTT) feature enables you to transmit messages and listen to replies much like a walkie-talkie.
Your system administrator sets up the feature, defines up to 25 channels for PTT mode, and assigns a label to each channel
that easily identifies the channel, such as All, HR Dept, Shipping Staff, or Executives. By default, you’re subscribed to
Channels 1, 24, and 25. This means that you can send and receive PTT broadcasts on Channels 1, 24, and 25.
Each group or channel has one of the following priorities:
• Normal—By default, broadcasts sent to channels 1 to 23 are considered Normal broadcasts. If two users begin a
broadcast on the same group/channel at the same time, the phone with the lower serial number continues to transmit
