programmed conventional emergency system and channel), proceed as

follows:

Press and hold the red E button for approximately one second (this time

is programmable and, therefore, could be longer or shorter; check with the

system administrator). The radio turns on the TX indicator and proceeds to

transmit the pre-programmed G-STAR emergency signalling sequence.

G-STAR is programmed to transmit in one of the following methods:

METHOD 1: G-STAR is transmitted on the selected channel. If the

channel is changed the emergency signalling will continue

to be transmitted on the newly selected channel.

METHOD 2: Same as METHOD 1 but the radio will lock on to the

currently selected channel. Any attempts to change the

system or channel will be disabled.

METHOD 3: G-STAR is transmitted on a pre-programmed conventional

emergency system and channel regardless of the selected

channel. In this case the selected channel is available for

voice transmission and the radio will periodically change to

the pre-programmed emergency system and channel to send

the emergency signalling and then change back to the

selected channel.

METHOD 4: Same as METHOD 3 but the radio will lock on to the pre-

programmed emergency system and channel. Any attempts

to change the system or channel will be disabled.

The emergency state can be cleared by turning the radio OFF and then back

ON.

Using 5-Tone Signalling for Emergency Declaration

If 5-Tone signalling is defined for emergency declaration in place of G-

STAR emergency signalling, a pre-programmed tone sequence will be

transmitted instead of the G-STAR sequence. This emergency declaration

functions as the G-STAR emergency in all other r espects.

Tone Encode Transmission

In conventional mode two keys can be defined to be tone e ncod e tr igger s. I f

either one of the pre-programmed tone encode triggers is pressed, a pre-

programmed tone sequence will be transmitted on the current system and

channel. (See Emergency Operation if E key is used.) The TX

indicator will light during tone transmission and a beep will sound at the
