Note: if you do not cancel Emergency Mode, your phone will continue to
remain in Emergency Mode even after you turn off and on the phone. If
you attempt to turn off power while in Emergency Mode, you will receive
a countdown warning timer that power down will commence and then
a notification that the phone is sending a power down notification to
emergency contacts. You will be provided the option prior to this screen
to immediately turn off the phone or you can wait for confirmation that
the power down notification was successfully sent and then the phone
will automatically power down.
Emergency Actions
In the Emergency Options menu, Emergency Actions will allow you
to determine the types of call and/or message actions that will occur
when Emergency Mode is initiated. The default setting is Message
and Call, which means that a message and call will be initiated to your
programmed contacts in the event that Emergency Mode is started
by pressing the red SOS button on the top of the phone or by selecting
Emergency Mode from the menu.
Additionally, the phone (if programmed) will send an SMS message to
your designated contact every five minutes in the following format:
EMERGENCY/Lat+38.950116(stdv 0075)/Lon-077.250050(stdv 0075)/Alt+964
ft(stdv 0075)/GPS sats 04/2012-06-15 15:37UTC/Batt 86%/Lang en/Iridium user
This message contains the following information:
EMERGENCY notification
The Latitude and standard deviation for accuracy
The Longitude and standard deviation for accuracy
The Altitude and standard deviation for accuracy
The number of GPS satellites that were visible to the phone to assist with
gauging accuracy. If number of GPS satellites is generally greater than
4, the accuracy is generally good. If “NO GPS AVAIL” is displayed, the
location provided is an approximate location based on Iridium location
that is only an approximate location within an accuracy of ~90 miles.
The date (year – month – day) and time (UTC)
The % of phone battery charge remaining
The language of the phone menu setting to give some indication of the
