Man Down
Man Down condition is determined based upon the
radio tilt angle or a combination of radio tilt angle and
the lack of radio motion.
Man Down feature is an alternate way to activate the
Emergency feature if Emergency has been
programmed in your radio.
Note
This feature could be preprogrammed for all
channels that support Emergency feature or
could be preprogrammed specifically to a zone
and channel which has Emergency feature.
Consult your agent or qualified technician for
more details.
Your radio automatically activates Emergency Alarm
or Call when the radio achieves or passes a tilt angle
threshold or a combination of the angle threshold and
radio motion below the motion sensitivity level,
depending upon how the radio is programmed. The
radio must stay in this condition for a preprogrammed
amount of time before the Emergency Alarm or Call is
activated.
Note
It is recommended that an Emergency button
is preprogrammed in order to allow the user to
exit the emergency condition.
The Man Down feature provides a Clear function to
the user. After a Man Down condition has been
detected, the user can press a preprogrammed
Clear
button to cancel the Man Down condition. The radio
remains in the Man Down state without triggering an
emergency condition until the radio is moved out of
the Man Down state, at which point Man Down
functionality resumes.
The Man Down feature has three phases:
1 The radio senses the Man Down condition and
Pre-Alert Timer is initiated.
2 Man Down condition continues for the time
duration defined in the Pre-Alert Timer field. At the
end of this time, the radio alerts the user on the
Man Down status with an audible alert tone and
MAN-DOWN
text on the screen. The Post-Alert Timer
also initiates at this point.
