Common Radio Features

Emergency

For radios programmed with the emergency feature, pressing the Emergency Button (if programmed, see page 2) will send out an emergency signal that takes precedence over any other signalling activity in progress on the selected channel. There are two types of emergency signals:

Emergency Alarm sends a data transmission to alert the dispatcher to an emergency condition and identify the radio sending the emergency signal.

Emergency Call is a type of dispatch operation which gives your radio priority access to channels in trunked radios.

Note

“Emergency” signals a critical situation. It should never be used for any other reason.
