Sending an Emergency Alarm with Voice to Follow
This feature allows you to send an Emergency Alarm
to a group of radios. The microphone of your radio is
automatically activated, allowing you to communicate
with the group of radios without pressing the PTT
button.
This activated microphone state is also known as “hot
mic”.
If your radio has Emergency Cycle Mode enabled,
repetitions of hot mic and receiving period are made
for a programmed duration. During Emergency Cycle
Mode, received calls sound through the speaker of
the radio.
If you press the
PTT button during the programmed
receiving period, you hear a prohibit tone, indicating
that you should release the PTT button. The radio
ignores the PTT press and remains in Emergency
mode.
Note:
If you press the PTT button during hot mic,
and continue to press it after the hot mic
duration expires, the radio continues to
transmit until you release the PTT button.
If your radio is set to Silent, it does not display any
audio or visual indicators during Emergency mode, or
allow any received calls to sound through the speaker
of the radio, until the programmed hot mic
transmission period is over, and you press the PTT
button.
If your radio is set to Silent with Voice, it does not
display any audio or visual indicators during
Emergency mode when you are making the call with
hot mic, but allow sound through the speaker of the
radio when the target radio responds after the
programmed hot mic transmission period is over. The
