BK Radio
EMERGENCY GROUP/CHANNEL
The emergency sequence is always
transmitted on the emergency group/
channel regardless of the current function
mode and channel. Once the emergency
sequence is started, and up to the time it is
acknowledged, the radio will stay on the
emergency group channel, although the
channel knob and group change function
are still active.
If you take the radio off the emergency
group/channel during an emergency
sequence, within the next 15-second
transmission interval, the radio will return
to the designated emergency group/
channel.
Activation
To activate the emergency ANI sequence
transmission:
• Press and hold the emergency button.
Your dealer can program the
emergency activation from 0.5 to 4.0
seconds in 0.5-second intervals, or
• Tip the radio sideways. The factory
installed internal man-down tilt switch
will activate the signal.
Once activated, the man-down/emergency
icon [ ] appears in the display in
advanced models. Your dealer can
program the length of time the radio can be
tilted before the man-down/emergency
code is transmitted.
