At the VCC, Parade Guides will issue each volunteer an individually numbered Sonim XP5plus device (sometimes colloquially referred to as a "radio"). The XP5plus runs on AT&T's [https://www.firstnet.com/ FirstNet] network and can be thought of as a cell phone/walkie talkie hybrid operating on an exclusive network. Volunteers can review a user manual for this device by clicking [https://www.att.com/idpassets/images/support/device-support/Sonim-XP5plus-UG-ATT-062122-Final.pdf HERE] (note that reviewing the manual '''''is <u>not</u>''''' required). Two short training videos appear on the right side of the page. The first one (about five minutes) goes over the basic basics: how to turn the device on, switch channels, talk on it, and power it down. The second video (about ten minutes) is a deeper dive into how the device works. | At the VCC, Parade Guides will issue each volunteer an individually numbered Sonim XP5plus device (sometimes colloquially referred to as a "radio").
