Emergency Operation
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.
Your radio supports 3 Emergency Alarms:
•Emergency Alarm
•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 – Radio transmits an alarm signal without any audio or visual indicators. There will be no response (call) from the target radio until you press the PTT button to initiate the call.
•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.
Only one of the Emergency Alarms above can be assigned to the preprogrammed Emergency button or the Emergency footswitch.
