Sending Evacuation Tone
This feature enables the evacuation tone to be heard on

receive the tone instruction.

the Top (Orange) button.
Once the tone begins to sound, if the orange button is

is in secure mode.
Responding to Evacuation Indicator
The Incident Commander can trigger one of sixteen
Tactical Alerts from the Command Terminal. These alerts
can target individuals or groups of users within the
Fireground Communication System. The ergonomic (visual
and audible) response for the Tactical Alerts can be
customized.
Your radio sounds the audible response at the profile
maximum alert tone volume level. The display shows the
configurable programmed alert text and intelligent lighting.
Perform one of the following actions:
• Press the radio Top Side button.
• Press the RSM Side Button 1 if the radio is
connected to RSM.
• Press the PTT button. PTT button must be
configured in CPS to enable this function.
The radio cancels the indications, a tone sounds and
the radio sends an acknowledgment to the command
terminal.
