Sending an Emergency Alarm with Call
This feature allows you to send an Emergency Alarm to a group
of radios. Upon acknowledgement by a radio within the group,
the group of radios can communicate over a programmed
Emergency channel.
Procedure:
1 Press the programmed Emergency On button or the
Emergency footswitch.
2 The display shows Tx Alarm and the destination alias. The
green LED lights up and the Emergency icon appears.
OR
The display shows Tx Telegram and the destination
alias. The LED lights up solid green and the Emergency icon
appears.
3 When an Emergency Alarm acknowledgment is received,
the Emergency tone sounds and the green LED blinks. The
display shows Alarm Sent.
4 Your radio enters the emergency call mode when the display
shows Emergency and the destination group alias.
5 Press PTT button to make the call. The green LED lights up
and the group icon appears on the display.
6 Wait for the Talk Permit Tone to finish (if enabled) and speak
clearly into the microphone.
OR
Wait for the PTT Sidetone to finish (if enabled) and
speak clearly into the microphone.
7 Release the PTT button to listen.
When you receive a group call, the display shows the caller
alias and group alias.
8 When the channel is free for you to respond, a short alert
tone sounds ( if the Channel Free Indication feature is
enabled). Press the PTT button to respond.
OR
Once your call ends, press Emergency Off button to exit
the Emergency mode.
9 The radio returns to the Home screen.
If your radio is set to Silent, it does not display any audio or
visual indicators during Emergency mode, or allow any received
calls to sound through the radio’s speaker, until you press the
PTT button to initiate the call.
If your radio is set to Silent with Voice, it does not display any
audio or visual indicators during Emergency mode, but allow
incoming calls to sound through the radio’s speaker. The
indicators only appear once you press the PTT button to initiate,
or respond to, the call.
