5.3 Trunking Dispatch Services

5.3.1 Private Voice Call

Both the full-duplex and half-duplex private voice calls can be established between the UE and DC. During the full-
duplex call, both parties can simultaneously talk while listening. During the half-duplex call, only one party can speak
at a time.

5.3.2 Group Voice Call

The DC can initiate a group voice call to a group in its organization through the web dispatch client. During the group
call, only one group member can speak at a time, while all other group members can only listen. After the talking party

19
finishes talking and release the floor, other group members can request the floor.

5.3.3 Listening
The DC can listen to an ongoing private or group call, or activities of a particular UE or group. One DC can listen to
multiple UEs or groups at the same time. When the listened UE or group participates in a call, the Hytera HyTalk
server automatically forwards the call to the DC.

Both the voice call and video call are supported for listening.

5.3.4 Interrupt or Override

 Interrupt: When a user is talking in a call initiated, received, or monitored by the DC, the DC can interrupt the
talking anytime to control the floor.

 Override: The DC can forcibly terminate an ongoing call and release the channel resource.

5.3.5 Stunning or Reviving

If a UE is lost, the DC can stun the UE to prevent unauthorized use of the radio. A stunned UE will be deprived of all
functions excluding GPS polling.

To restore the stunned UE to normal use, the DC can revive the UE.

5.3.6 Broadcast Call

The DC can initiate a broadcast call to a group. During the call, only the DC can speak and be heard.

5.3.7 Dynamic Regrouping

The DC can create a temporary group consisting of UEs located within a specified area on the map or selected from
the favorite contacts. And then, the DC can initiate the voice or video call or send the message to the group.

5.3.8 Private Video Call

The DC can initiate a one-to-one video call to a UE with video services.

5.3.9 Group Video Call

The DC can initiate a group video call to a group. During the call, only the member with the floor can transmit voice
and video, and other members can only receive.

20
5.3.10 Video Pull
By video pulling, the DC makes a one-way video call to the designated UE, and pull the video to the DC. The video
call can be established automatically or manually based on the settings of the DC. In this case, the DC can monitor the
vicinity of the UE. Besides, the DC can pull videos of multiple UEs in turn. After the video is pulled, the DC can
forward the video to other users. The video pulling supports the resolutions of CIF, VGA, and 720P.

If pack loss exists during the video pulling, the system automatically re-uploads the lost packets, to ensure that the
video is complete.

5.3.11 Video Push

By video pushing, the DC makes a one-way video call to a UE or group, and sends the local video of the DC to the
UE or group members.

In this case, the UE or group members can only view the video, but cannot request the floor.

5.3.12 Video Forward

By video forwarding, the DC makes a one-way video call without voice to a UE or group. After the call is established,
the DC forwards the video pulled from another UE to this UE. In this case, the group members can only view the video,
but cannot request the floor.

5.3.13 GPS Subscription

The DC can subscribe to GPS of a UE or multiple UEs by time. After the UE receives the GPS information, the
location of the UE will be displayed on the digital map of the DC. The DC can click the icon of the UE to initiate a
voice or video call, send a message, or check the location.

The DC can configure the color of the UE icons as per needs.

5.3.14 GPS Tracking

After the GPS tracking feature is enabled on the subscribed UE, the DC can view the real-time geographic locations
of the UE on the map and obtain the moving route of the UE.

5.3.15 Historical Track

The DC can query the historical track of a UE within a specified period.

21
5.3.16 Statistic Query
The DC can query the records of short messages, online and offline status, geofencing alarms, emergency alarms, and
calls. The DC can query the statistics by UE type or time. The query results are presented in figures or tables.

5.4 Supplementary Trunking Services

5.4.1 Group Call Merging

When a UE makes a call to a group involved in another call, the UE will be added to this ongoing group call as a called
member.

5.4.2 Late Entry

Late entry allows the Hytera HyTalk server to draw a UE into an ongoing group voice or video call.

5.4.3 Audio Recording Playback

During the group voice call, the call speeches are recorded and sent to all group members simultaneously. The user
can playback the recording of group voice calls through the Hytera HyTalk client. After playback, the user can delete
the recording manually to free up storage space. This feature is supported on the PNC550, PDC550, PDC680, PDC760,
PTC680, and PTC760.

5.4.4 Digital Map

The user can view its location through the digital map of the Hytera HyTalk client. By clicking the icon of other UEs,
the user can access the audio and video call or data services. This feature is supported on the PNC550, PDC550,
PDC680, PDC760, PTC680, and PTC760.

5.4.5 Online Status

Users can query the online status of one or multiple UEs from the Hytera HyTalk or dispatch client. The online status
information includes the registration status of users.

5.4.6 Voice and Video Recording

Users can record voice, message, signaling, and video data during calls. The recordings are stored in voice and video
server for query and management. Recordings on important information during daily work can be used in later
investigation, facilitating supervision, management, dispute resolution.
