Triggering Emergency; Radio Alerts When Man Down Enhanced Is Triggered - Motorola APX 6000 User Manual

Triggering Emergency

When the user does not clear the Man Down
condition and the Post-Alert Timer comes to an end,
Emergency Alarm or call is triggered. The radio sends
emergency message to units within the same
Talkgroup. The radio also sends ID number and GPS
coordinates to dispatcher if these features are
enabled. User can exit Emergency following the
Emergency procedure. See
page 49 for details.
Note:
At this point the Man Down features is
complete. Use normal Emergency procedures
to cancel Emergency transmissions.

Radio Alerts When Man Down Enhanced is Triggered

Note:
This feature is to be preprogrammed
specifically to a zone and channel which
supports Emergency feature.
The volume and repetition duration of Man
Down Enhanced alert tone could be
customized and preprogrammed to suite the
required situation.
Emergency Operation on
Consult your agent or qualified technician for
more details.
When the radio initiates Man Down Enhanced, you
hear the Critical Man Down Continuous alert tone
from the radio speaker. The volume of this tone is set
to the louder of the preprogrammed minimum level or
the current radio speaker level. This acts as a beacon
to find the radio.
Note:
If the radio is programmed with Silent
Emergency, the radio inhibits the alert tone
and visual alert associated with the
emergency feature.
If the radio is programmed in Surveillance
Mode, the alert tone can be heard from the
radio speaker.
Once the alert tone is active, changing to another
channel with different setup triggers a different
response from the radio as described next.
• The alert tone is inhibited when you change to a
channel without Emergency feature.
• The alert tone is inhibited when you change to a
channel with Emergency but no Man Down
feature.
