If enabled, GE-STAR emergency signalling can be transmit
-
ted when operating in the conventional mode. This GE-STAR
signalling will transmit 5 times with a delay between each trans
-
mission. To send an emergency call on the selected conventional
system and channel (or on an optionally preprogrammed con
-
ventional emergency system and channel), proceed as follows:
Press and hold the RED EMERGENCY button that is on the
top of the radio in front of the antenna for approximately
one second (this time is programmable and therefore could
be longer or shorter; check with the system administra
-
tor). The radio displays
and proceeds to transmit the pre-programmed GE-
STAR emergency signalling sequence.
GE-STAR is programmed to transmit in one of the following
methods:
METHOD 1:
GE-STAR is transmitted on the selected chan
-
nel. If the channel is changed the emergency sig
-
nalling 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 channel will be disabled.
METHOD 3:
GE-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 trans
