Emergency Operation
The Emergency feature is used to indicate a critical situation.
If the Top (Orange) button is preprogrammed to send an
emergency signal, this signal overrides any other
communication over the selected channel.
Your radio supports the following Emergency modes:
• Emergency Alarm
• Emergency Call (Trunking Only)
• Emergency Alarm with Emergency Call
• Silent Emergency Alarm
Check with your dealer or system administrator for more
information on the programming of this feature.
Only one of the Emergency modes above can be assigned to
the preprogrammed Emergency button.
Note: To exit emergency at any time, press and hold the
preprogrammed Emergency button for about a
second.
Sending an Emergency Alarm
This feature allows you to send a data transmission, which
identifies the radio sending the emergency, to the dispatcher.
Procedure:
1 Press the preprogrammed Emergency button.
2 The display shows Emergency and the current zone or
channel. A short, medium-pitched tone sounds and the
LED rapidly blinks red.
OR
The display shows No emergency, if the selected channel
does not support emergency.
3 When you receive the dispatcher’s acknowledgment, the
display shows Ack received. Four tones sound, the alarm
ends, and the radio exits the Emergency Alarm mode.
OR
If no acknowledgement is received, the display shows
No acknowledge. The alarm ends and the radio exits the
Emergency Alarm mode.
