MDC 1200 OPERATION
D

Emergency Calls
The MDC 1200 Emergency feature can be accessed using the
[Emergency] key (p. 9). The transceiver will repeatedly send an
Emergency MDC 1200 command to the dispatcher for a pro-
grammed length of time until it receives an acknowledgement sig-
nal.
The emergency call can be transmitted without a beep emission
and LCD indication change depends on the setting.
With MDC 1200 Emergency, the transceiver can also be pro-
grammed to keep the microphone open during an emergency call,
allowing monitoring of the situation.
Ask your dealer for details.

Stun and Revive
The dispatcher can send MDC 1200 signals that will stun or revive
your transceiver. If a Stun command is received that matches your
station ID, the transceiver will display “SORRY” and you can not re-
ceive or transmit. When a Revive command is received that
matches your station ID, normal operation is restored.
