UTTON
The Emergency 911 button
is located underneath a rotating guard at the back of the
SHOUT ts. Use it at any time regardless of the tracking status (enabled or disabled) or
power status (on or off). When pressed, the emergency LED immediately turns solid
green to indicate that the device is in emergency mode. The device then attempts to quickly
send three consecutive reports. Because these reports are sent quickly, a GPS fix may not
be immediately available; however, the emergency indication flag will be set. After sending
the first three emergency reports, the SHOUT ts reverts back to the default emergency
Time-Between-Reports (TBR) of two minutes. The LED can be deactivated to extend the
battery life by using the

LED
menu. If the LCD screen is on during emergency
activation, the black bar across the top of the screen turns red. During emergency a NOC
can send an acknowledgement back to the SHOUT ts.
