Sending an Emergency Alarm with Voice to Follow 
This feature allows you to send an Emergency Alarm to another radio. Upon acknowledgement, your radio’s microphone is automatically activated, allowing you to communicate with the other radio without pressing the PTT button.
This activated microphone state is also known as “hot mic”.
If you press the PTT button during the programmed hot mic transmission period, the radio ignores the PTT press and remains in Emergency mode.
NOTE: If you press the PTT button during hot mic, and continue to press it after the hot mic duration expires, the radio continues to transmit until you release the PTT button.
