SMARTNET/SMARTZONE FEATURES

Emergency Alarm and Emergency Call

Emergency alarms and emergency calls are separate functions that can be individually programmed on SMARTNET/SmartZone channels. The Emergency option switch is required to initiate these features. An emergency alarm is a special data transmission to alert your dispatcher of an emergency situation, and an emergency call is an urgent request for access to a voice channel. The emergency alarm and call are transmitted on the emergency talk group or announcement group that has been preprogrammed by your system operator on the currently selected channel. Proceed as follows to initiate an emergency alarm or call:

1.To transmit an emergency alarm, select a SMARTNET/SmartZone channel that has that feature enabled and then press the Emergency option switch.

2.The emergency alarm is then transmitted and “EMERGNCY” is indicated in the display for a short time. Transmitting continues until an acknowledgment is received (indicated by two beeps) or the programmed number of attempts have occurred. Silent operation may also be programmed in which case no audio or visual indication of the alarm condition occurs.

3.To transmit an emergency call, press the Emergency option switch with a SMARTNET/SmartZone channel selected that has that feature enabled. Then manually press the PTT switch and begin speaking as with a standard call. All calls that follow are then emergency calls and they occur on the emergency talk group.

4.To exit the emergency mode, power must be turned off and then on again.

Failsoft Operation

If a failure occurs in the SMARTNET/SmartZone system so that it cannot be used, the transceiver automatically enters the failsoft mode. When this mode is selected, the display alternately indicates “FAIL- SOFT” and the alias of the selected channel.
