Transmitting an Emergency call
When [Emergency] is held down for the specified time period, the
emergency signal (digital command) is transmitted once or repeat-
edly* on the specified emergency channel. When no emergency
channel is specified, the signal is transmitted on the operating
channel.
* When the Repeat Cancel function is ON, the transceiver cancels
repeating after receiving an acknowledgement.
When the Repeat Cancel function is OFF, the transceiver repeats
calling according to the number of repeat cycles, even after re-
ceiving an acknowledgement.
Individual or Talkgroup call types of emergency calls can be pre-
fixed. If the call type is not pre-fixed, the default or selected call
type is used.
If you want to cancel the emergency call, hold down [Emergency]
again before transmitting the call.
If your transceiver is programmed for Silent operation, you can
transmit an Emergency call without the beep sounding and the LED
indicator lighting.
The transceiver can also be programmed to keep the microphone
open during an emergency call, allowing monitoring of the situa-
tion.
Ask your dealer for details.
IMPORTANT:
It is recommended to set an emergency channel
individually to provide the certain emergency call operation.
NOTE:
The Digital Request Ack function is activated, the trans-
ceiver transmits the emergency call with the request to send
back an acknowledgment.
