Siyata SD7

 

 

 

The Siyata SD7 is a dedicated PTT device for use with ESChat with an available dedicated wired mic.  It arrives ready to auto install and provision.  As shown above, this device has a limited screen and a single multifunction control knob.  Navigate the device via a press or rotation of the multifunction knob in order to view channels, enter menus, and accept settings.  For activation instructions, please click here.

Navigating ESChat on the SD7 

The following images are representations of the device's OLED screens, for clarity.  

After provision and activation is complete, upon start up the device will display the name of the currently selected channel as well as "PTT Online."  This is the default display when not in-call.

Rotating the multi-function knob cycles through available channels and is accompanied by an audio announcement of the channel number. 		  

 

ESChat Secondary Menu

ESChat's secondary menu is reached by pressing the multifunction knob and then rotating the knob to view the options.  Press down on the knob to select the menu item.

Pressing the multifunction knob opens a secondary menu within the app.  

Press the knob to show the first option, "Show current channel." Press again to confirm and return to the channel display.

 

 

Rotating the knob after "Show current channels" cycles through the remaining options:  if your ESChat user has been configured to make "Sign out" available, that screen is one of the selections.

Selecting the "About PTT" option and rotating through the resulting sub menu will display the following items:  
       Version
       User name
       IMEI
       Server
       Full name
       Customer  
       Copyright

 

Select "Back" to return to the default  ESChat display.

The "Exit" screen takes you out of ESChat and into the date and time screen for the device.

To get back to ESChat, rotate the knob to reach "PTT" and press and rotate to reach "Show current channel."  Select  "Show current channel" to reach the ESChat idle screen.
