User Manual

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.
