Emergency Operation

The Emergency feature is used to indicate a critical situation. An emergency signal overrides any other

communication over the selected channel.

Your radio supports the following Emergency modes:

• Emergency Alarm

• Emergency Call

• Emergency Alarm with Emergency Call

One channel supports only one Emergency mode. The radio responds differently when pressing the

preprogrammed Emergency button in each channel.

Your radio is also programmed to operate in one of the following conditions:

Tactical/Non-Revert

The radio sends an emergency alarm and/or makes an emergency call on the current channel.

Non-Tactical/Revert for Conventional System

The radio reverts to the preprogrammed emergency channel to send an alarm and/or make an

emergency call.

Non-Tactical/Revert for Trunking System

The radio reverts to the preprogrammed emergency talkgroup (trunking system) or channel

(conventional system) to send an alarm and/or make an emergency call.

Man Down is an alternate way to activate the Emergency feature. For more information, see Man

Down on page 46.

Contact your system administrator for more information.

Special Considerations for Emergency Operation

The following scenarios apply during Emergency operation:

Table 8: Emergency Operation Scenarios

If... Then...

If you press the Emergency button while in a

channel that has no Emergency capability,

a low-pitched tone sounds.

If you change to a channel/mode with no Emer-

gency capability while in Emergency operation,

the following occurs:

• The display shows No emergency.

• A continuous low-pitched tone sounds until

you select a valid Emergency channel/mode

or until you disable the Emergency opera-

tion.

If you change to a channel/mode with Emergen-

cy capability while in Emergency operation,

the Emergency Alarm and/or Emergency Call

continues on the new channel/mode.

If the radio is out-of-range of the system or the

emergency alarm is not acknowledged,

a tone sounds and the display shows No ac-

knowledge.
