Profile Configuration

Device Profiles are required only for Talkman devices. These profiles are for loading VoiceCatalyst, Network Configurations, and Advanced Settings.

For Android devices, the operating system and Network Configurations are loaded directly on the devices rather than within profiles. This can be supported by an MDM.

Device Groups X Device groups are groups of devices that you can work with as a unit, making any device-based actions easier to perform. Device groups are for Talkman devices only. They provide functionality such as loading device profiles, task packages, and operators.

Device Logging ü

Talkman devices provide logging details in addition to the information found in the application logs.

For Android this enables GWS application logs, not device-specific logs.

Currently any action items (for example, Device Logging) that are sent to the Android device, require a user to sign out and sign back in to take effect. This is not required for the A700x.
