Patching
Patching is the connection of one channel to one or more other channels, resulting in the ability to establish interoperable communications between channels and systems even if they are not directly compatible. Patching can be initiated by any user with the Patch Administrator privilege. If you have been assigned the Patch Agent privilege, then the Patch tab appears in your ICE interface.
The PATCH tab allows you to Create, Delete, Activate and Deactivate channel patches, assign a patch to a Patch Server, and view the status of exiting patches running on the Instant Connect system.
Note: Dynamic Talk Groups are not controlled in the Patch tab. They are activated and deactivated in Settings > Dynamic Talk Groups. For instructions see Dynamic Talk Groups.
To manage patches
Click the PATCH tab.Note: If the PATCH tab is not available, ask your system administrator to verify that your user account has been provisioned with the Patch Administrator privilege.
