3.6 Emergency Mode
RF Transmissions from the radio are prevented under the following conditions:
• TXI Mode is activated
• Battery is removed
• Radio is turned off
3.6 Emergency Mode
The Emergency Mode is a mode of the highest communication priority.
In the Emergency Mode, the radio automatically rejects phone, PABX and private calls, and does not monitor the
talkgroups in the selected scan list. However, if an ATG is the selected group, the radio monitors the sub-groups
associated with the ATG.
On entering the Emergency Mode, any ongoing voice call is aborted or cleared down. Any packet data transfer in
progress is aborted. However, the session is kept open.
The radio remains in the Emergency Mode until you or the originator ends the Emergency Group Call.
Pressing the EMERGENCY button or entering Emergency number and pressing SEND key, can be used to activate
one or more services (depends on the service provider setting):
• Entering Emergency Mode
• Sending Emergency Alarm
• Starting Hot Mic operation
• Starting Emergency Individual Call
• Powering up the radio in Emergency Mode
• Sending the GPS location information
• Entering Emergency Mode even if TXI Mode is activated, causes immediately your radio
to transmit. When entering the Emergency operation, your radio should not be within
the RF sensitive area any longer.
• Your radio interrupts the AL call, when you trigger Emergency Mode.
If the radio user wishes to finish Emergency Call, a confirmation pop-up appears to avoid unintentional disconnects.
3.6.1 Emergency Operation
Emergency operation is available in TMO and DMO Mode. You can initiate an Emergency Group Call to a
pre-programmed group. You can receive an Emergency Group Call:
• From the selected pre-programmed talkgroup.
• From an open group (An open group is a super-group to which all DMO groups belong).
Emergency calls can be placed through the gateway or repeater.
