■ Create and set up channels
When you call a channel, all members joined to the channel hear the call simultaneously.
Each member in the channel is identified by a nickname, which is shown as a caller identification. Channel
members can choose a nickname for themselves in each channel.
Channels are registered with a URL address. One user registers the channel URL in the network by joining the
channel session the first time.
There are three types of PTT channels:
• Provisioned channels are closed channels that allow only selected participants provisioned by the service
provider to join.
• Ad hoc channels are channels that the users can create. You can create your own channel, and invite
members to the channel.
• Ad hoc pro channels are channels you can create from members in a provisioned channel. For example, a
business can have a closed channel and separate channels created for certain business functions.
