Lone Worker

This feature prompts an emergency to be raised if there is no user activity, such as any radio button press or activation of the channel selector, for a predefined time.

Following no user activity for a programmed duration, the radio pre-warns the user via an audio indicator once the inactivity timer expires.

If there is still no acknowledgment by the user before the predefined reminder timer expires, the radio initiates an Emergency Alarm.

Only one of the following Emergency Alarms is assigned to this feature:

Emergency Alarm

Emergency Alarm with Call

Emergency Alarm with Voice to Follow

The radio remains in the emergency state allowing voice messages to proceed until action is taken. See Emergency Operation on page 36 on ways to exit Emergency.
