Reinitiating an Emergency Mode
NOTE: This feature is only applicable to the radio sending the
Emergency Alarm.
There are two instances where this can happen:
• You change the channel while the radio is in Emergency
mode. This exits the Emergency mode. If Emergency Alarm is
enabled on this new channel, the radio reinitiates Emergency.
• You press the programmed Emergency On button during an
Emergency initiation/transmission state. This causes the
radio to exit this state, and to reinitiate Emergency.
Exiting an Emergency Mode
NOTE: This feature is only applicable to the radio sending the
Emergency Alarm.
Your radio exits Emergency mode when one of the following
occurs:
• Emergency Alarm acknowledgement is received (for
Emergency Alarm only), OR
• An Emergency Exit Telegram is received, OR
• All retries to send the alarm have been exhausted, OR
• The Emergency Off button is pressed.
• Turn the radio off and then power it on again if your radio has
been programmed to remain on the Emergency Revert
channel even after acknowledgement is received.
NOTE: If your radio is powered off, it exits the Emergency
mode. The radio will not reinitiate the Emergency
mode automatically when it is turned on again.
Privacy
If enabled, this feature helps to prevent eavesdropping by
unauthorized users on a channel by the use of a
software-based scrambling solution. The signaling and user
identification portions of a transmission are not scrambled.
Your radio must have privacy enabled on the channel to send a
privacy-enabled transmission, although this is not a necessary
requirement for receiving a transmission. While on a
privacy-enabled channel, the radio is still able to receive clear
(unscrambled) transmissions.
Your radio supports two types of privacy:
• Basic Privacy
• Enhanced Privacy(A Software License Key sold separately is
required for this feature.)
Only ONE of the privacy types above can be assigned to the
radio.
To unscramble a privacy-enabled call or data transmission, your
radio must be programmed to have the same Privacy Key (for
Basic Privacy), OR the same Key Value and Key ID (for
Enhanced Privacy) as the transmitting radio.
