Emergency Operation
The Emergency feature is used to indicate a critical situation. An emergency signal overrides any other
communication over the selected channel.
Your radio supports the following Emergency modes:
•
Emergency Alarm
•
Emergency Call
•
Emergency Alarm with Emergency Call
Only one Emergency mode can be assigned to the Top (Orange) button.
Your radio is also programmed to operate in one of the following conditions:
Tactical/Non-Revert
The radio sends an emergency alarm and/or makes an emergency call on the current channel.
Non-Tactical/Revert for Conventional System
The radio reverts to the programmed emergency channel to send an alarm and/or make an
emergency call.
Non-Tactical/Revert for Trunking System
The radio reverts to the programmed emergency talkgroup (trunking system) or channel
(conventional system) to send an alarm and/or make an emergency call.
Fall Alert (Man Down) is an alternate way to activate the Emergency feature.
For more information, contact your system administrator.
