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 EMERGNCY and the current zone or

channel. A short, medium-pitched tone sounds and the

LED rapidly blinks red.

An invalid tone sounds, if the selected channel does not

support emergency.

3 When you receive the dispatcher’s acknowledgment, the

display shows ACK RCVD. Four tones sound, the alarm

ends, and the radio exits the Emergency Alarm mode.

If no acknowledgement is received, the display shows

NO ACK. The alarm ends and the radio exits the Emergency

Alarm mode.

Sending an Emergency Call (Trunking Only)

This feature gives your radio priority access on a channel.

Note: The radio operates in the normal dispatch manner

while in Emergency Call, except, if enabled, it returns

to one of the following:

• Tactical/Non-Revert – You talk on the channel you

selected before you entered the emergency state.

• Non-Tactical/Revert – You talk on a

preprogrammed emergency channel. The

emergency alarm is sent on this same channel.
