Responding to an Emergency Alert
Note:
The Group contact used for the Emergency
Alert should not be used for voice
communication. This could prevent other
radios from sending and receiving Emergency
Alerts on the same group.
An Emergency Alert from a radio indicates that the
user is in an urgent situation. You may respond to the
alert by initiating a private call to the radio who
declared the emergency, initiating a group call to a
designated talk group, sending the radio a Call Alert,
initiating a Remote Monitor of that radio, etc. The
proper response is determined by your organization
and the individual situation.
Initiating an Emergency Call
Note:
If your radio is set to Silent, it does not display
any audio or visual indicators during
Emergency mode until you press the PTT
button to initiate a voice transmission.
If your radio is set to Silent with Voice, it does
not initially display any audio or visual
indicators that the radio is in Emergency
mode. However, your radio unmutes for the
transmissions of radios responding to your
emergency. The emergency indicators only
appear once you press the PTT button to
initiate a voice transmission from your radio.
For both “Silent” and “Silent with Voice”
operation, the radio automatically exits silent
operation after the Emergency Call is finished.
