Broadcasting is the ability to make a simultaneous transmission over a group of Private-Wire lines. A broadcast is initiated by pressing the net-broadcast key for the group of lines (the Net) you wish to broadcast to. You then simply speak via your handset across all the lines included in the Net. You can add and remove lines from any Net, to suit your requirements.
Your user profile must be configured with net-broadcast keys by your platform administrator. Access to, and configuration of, each net is provided by menus shown in the application display.
Each net must be populated with the appropriate Private-Wire lines. Once completed, to transmit a broadcast you simply press the associated net-broadcast key. The net-broadcast keys can also be programmed on a personal keypage by your platform administrator.
