Abstract

A method and device for navigating between multiple talkgroups. The device includes a user input interface, a display, and an electronic processor communicatively coupled to the display. The processor is configured to generate, on the display, a graphical user interface, associate the communication device with a first talkgroup, present, on the display, a first application related to the first talkgroup, receive, via the user input interface, a user input indicative of a request to change talkgroups, associate, in response to the user input, the communication device with a second talkgroup, and present, on the display, a second application related to the second talkgroup.

Claims (42)

1. A communication device assigned to a first talkgroup of a trunked radio system and a second talkgroup of the trunked radio system, the communication device including:

a user input interface;

a display;

an electronic processor communicatively coupled to the display and configured to:

generate, on the display, a graphical user interface;

generate, on the display, a first screen associated with the first talkgroup, the first screen including a first plurality of applications related to the first talkgroup that the communication device is assigned to, the first plurality of applications including applications related to an incident associated with the first talkgroup;

receive, via the user input interface, a user input requesting to change talkgroups; and

generate on the display, in response to the user input, a second screen including a second plurality of applications related to the second talkgroup that the communication device is assigned to, the second plurality of applications including applications related to an incident associated with the second talkgroup.

2. The communication device of claim 1 , wherein an arrangement of the first plurality of applications and the second plurality of applications is based on a priority associated with the applications of the first plurality of applications and the second plurality of applications.

3. The communication device of claim 1 , wherein the first talkgroup is associated with a first role and the second talkgroup is associated with a second role.

4. The communication device of claim 3 , wherein the first talkgroup and the second talkgroup are associated with the same incident.

5. The communication device of claim 1 , wherein the first plurality of applications or the second plurality of applications includes at least one selected from the group consisting of a summary of the first talkgroup or the second talkgroup, a summary of recently accessed talkgroups, information regarding the incident associated with the first talkgroup or the second talkgroup, and a search bar.

6. The communication device of claim 5 , wherein the search bar includes search terms related to the incident associated with the first talkgroup or the second talkgroup.

7. A communication device assigned to a first talkgroup of a trunked radio system and a second talkgroup of the trunked radio system, the communication device including:

a user input interface;

a display;

an electronic processor communicatively coupled to the display and configured to:

generate, on the display, a graphical user interface;

present, on the display, a first application of the first talkgroup, the first application being related to an incident associated with the first talkgroup;

receive, via the user input interface, a user input requesting to change talkgroups; and

present, on the display, a second application of the second talkgroup, the second application being related to an incident associated with the second talkgroup.

8. The communication device of claim 7 , wherein the user input interface is a touchscreen and the user input is a particular gesture on the touchscreen.

9. The communication device of claim 7 , wherein the user input interface is a rotary knob and the user input is a particular rotation of the rotary knob.

10. The communication device of claim 7 , wherein the first application is related to a first incident and the second application is related to a second incident.

11. A method of navigating between multiple talkgroups on a communication device assigned to a first talkgroup of a trunked radio communication and a second talkgroup of the trunked radio communication, the method comprising:

generating, on a display, a graphical user interface;

generating, on the display, a first screen associated with the first talkgroup, the first screen including a first plurality of applications related to the first talkgroup that the communication device is assigned to, the first plurality of applications including applications related to an incident associated with the first talkgroup;

receiving, via a user input interface, a user input requesting to change talkgroups; and

generating on the display, in response to the user input, a second screen including a second plurality of applications related to a second talkgroup that the communication device is assigned to, the second plurality of applications including applications related to an incident associated with the second talkgroup.

12. The method of claim 11 , wherein an arrangement of the first plurality of applications and the second plurality of applications is based on a priority associated with the applications of the first plurality of applications and the second plurality of applications.

13. The method of claim 11 , wherein the first talkgroup is associated with a first role and the second talkgroup is associated with a second role.

14. The method of claim 13 , wherein the first talkgroup and the second talkgroup are associated with the same incident.

15. The method of claim 11 , wherein the first plurality of applications or the second plurality of applications includes at least one selected from the group consisting of a summary of the first talkgroup or the second talkgroup, a summary of recently accessed talkgroups, information regarding the incident associated with the first talkgroup or the second talkgroup, and a search bar.

16. The method of claim 15 , wherein the search bar includes search terms related to the incident associated with the first talkgroup or the second talkgroup.

17. A method of navigating between multiple talkgroups on a communication device assigned to a first talkgroup of a trunked radio system and a second talkgroup of the trunked radio system, the method comprising:

generating, on a display, a graphical user interface;

presenting, on the display, a first application of the first talkgroup, the first application being related to an incident associated with the first talkgroup;

receiving, via a user input interface, a user input requesting to change talkgroups; and

presenting, on the display, a second application of the second talkgroup, the second application being related to an incident associated with the second talkgroup.

18. The method of claim 17 , wherein the user input interface is a touchscreen and the user input is a particular gesture on the touchscreen.

19. The method of claim 17 , wherein the user input interface is a rotary knob and the user input is a particular rotation of the rotary knob.

20. The method of claim 17 , wherein the first application is related to a first incident and the second application is related to a second incident.
