An Emergency Alarm is used to indicate a critical situation. You are able to initiate an Emergency at any time, in any state, even when there is activity on the current channel.

•Emergency Alarm with Call

•Emergency Alarm with Voice to Follow

In addition, each alarm has the following types:

•Regular – Radio transmits an alarm signal and shows audio and/or visual indicators.

•Silent with Voice – Radio transmits an alarm signal and is able to receive an incoming call, without any audio or visual indicators, until you press the PTT button to initiate, or respond to, the call.
