Setting Template for SD7
The SD7 is a PTT specific device, rather than a smartphone, and there are recommended settings for best functionality. Please configure the SD7 Client Settings as shown below. The most critical setting is under the Speaker Tab, where we recommend the tone gain be set to 50.
Be sure to pay careful attention to the setting requirements highlighted in red. This may be done on a per user basis, but for best practices, include all SD7 users on a template.
