Receiving an Emergency Call

When receiving an Emergency Call on the selected group and system, an alert

beep is heard and is displayed. The message *RXEMER* flashes in the

display on line two until the emergency condition is cleared.

Declaring an Emergency Call

To send an emergency call to a selected system and group (or on an optionally

pre-programmed group), proceed as follows:

1. Press and hold the red EMERGENCY button that is on top of the radio in

front of the antenna for approximately one second (this time is

programmable and therefore could be longer or shorter; check with the

system administrator). The radio will transmit an emergency call request

with the radio ID until an emergency channel assignment is received.

2. When the working channel assignment is received, the radio sounds a

single beep indicating the radio has auto keyed (see Table 4) and is ready

for voice transmission. *TXEMER* flashes on line two in the display

until the emergency is cleared.

3. Press PTT and speak into the microphone in a normal voice.

and

momentarily turn ON.

4. Release PTT when the transmission is complete.

To clear the emergency first press and hold the CLEAR/MONITOR button.

While continuing to hold the CLEAR/MONITOR button, press the

EMERGENCY button. (This will work if the radio is programmed to clear

emergencies.)

INDIVIDUAL CALLS

Receiving and Responding to an Individual Call (Trunked Mode

Only)

When the radio receives an individual call (a call directed only to the user's

radio), it un-mutes on the assigned working channel and displays

. The first

line on the display shows the logical ID number of the unit sending the

message, or the associated name if the ID number is found in the individual

call list. The radio can be programmed to ring when an individual call is

received. If enabled, the ring begins five seconds after the caller un-keys and

will continue until the PTT button, the CLEAR/MONITOR button or the

individual call mode is entered.

NOTE

The volume of the ring is adjustable through the volume control

levels.
