Multiple Queued Emergencies
Clearing the existing displayed Emergency
shows the next in the queue, if one exists.The
display updates and shows “Emerg (queued
number) of (total number)”. If no additional
Emergencies are queued, the radio exits
Emergency mode and resumes normal mode.
Three Minute Timer
Responding to an Emergency starts a three-
minute timer. The radio does not generate
another Emergency Alert tone against that
Emergency Alias or ID until the three-minute
period expires. If cleared within 3 minutes, the
alarm will regenerate the alert. If the radio
receives another Emergency Alert from the
same Alias or ID, the radio acknowledges the
Emergency but does not restart the tone,
activate the external alarm, or display updated
information.
After the Timer Expires
If the three-minute timer has expired for a
specific Emergency Alias or ID, and the radio
decodes an Emergency that is currently in
queue, the radio:
• Acknowledges the Emergency
• Restarts the Emergency Alert tone
• Activates the external alarm
• Updates the time stamp on the matching
