Users Manual

whether or not this applies to your radio and which specific
Man Down Alarms have been enabled and programmed.
If your radio has been programmed for one or more of
the following Man Down Alarms, it is important for you to
understand how the Alarm works, what indication (tones)
your radio provides, and the action you should take.
The purpose of the Man Down Alarms is to alert others
when you might be in danger. This is accomplished by
programming your radio to detect a certain angle of tilt,
lack of movement, or movement, depending on which
Man Down Alarm(s) is/are enabled. If your radio detects
a disallowed movement type, and if the condition is not
corrected in a certain period of time, the radio starts to play
an Alert Tone (if so programmed). At this point you should
immediately take one or more of the corrective actions
discussed below, depending on which Man Down Alarm(s)
has/have been enabled for your radio. If you do not take
corrective action within a certain period of time, your radio
automatically starts an Emergency (either an Emergency
Call or Emergency Alert).
• Tilt Alarm – When your radio is tilted at or beyond
a specified angle for a period of time, it plays an
Alert Tone (if so programmed). To prevent the radio
from automatically starting an Emergency Call or
Emergency Alert, restore the radio to the vertical
position immediately.
• Anti-Movement Alarm – When your radio is motionless
for a period of time, it plays an Alert Tone (if so
programmed). To prevent the radio from automatically
starting an Emergency Call or Emergency Alert, move
the radio immediately.
• Movement Alarm – When your radio is in motion
for a period of time, it plays an Alert Tone (if so
programmed). To prevent the radio from automatically
starting an Emergency Call or Emergency Alert, stop the
radio’s motion immediately.
Your dealer or radio system administrator can tell you
which of the above alarms (if any) has been enabled
through radio programming. It is possible to enable both
the Tilt and Anti- Movement Alarms. In that case, the Alert
Tone plays when the radio detects the first movement
violation.
Instead of taking the corrective actions discussed above,
you can also prevent the radio from starting the Emergency
call or Emergency Alert by using a programmable button,
if your radio has been configured in this manner. This is
discussed in the next two sections.
