Eliminating False Emergency Alert Triggering
Procedure:
1 If the Emergency Alert Triggering feature is not required before turning on the radio, uncheck
Rear Emergency Pin Prior to Power Up in CPS Programming.
2 Inspect emergency Footswitch for faulty switch and/or corroded connections.
3 Clean or replace any corroded connections.
4 Solder wire connections and use Anti-oxidant Compound to protect connections from corrosion
as needed.
5 If Emergency Alert Triggering feature is required before turning on the radio, use a stiffening
capacitor with a diode to minimize acute power fluctuations. Recommended value for a stiffening
capacitor may be 1000 uF to 10,000 uF, 50 V surge or higher. The following figure shows the
