3.13 EMERGENCY CALL
Note: Emergency operation only applies to channels programmed for
Digital or Mixed Mode transmissions. If the channel is programmed for
Mixed Mode transmissions, the ‘TX Digital’ switch must be ON.
To place an emergency group call, press and hold the emergency button until the
radio beeps and the display flashes. On some models, the emergency button may
be the microphone’s [PRI] key. All scanning and priority scanning functions will be
disabled. If the radio is in Unit-To-Unit Mode, that mode will be exited and the radio
will be placed in Emergency Mode. Each subsequent press of PTT will cause the
radio to transmit on the knob-selected channel with the emergency bit set, indicating
an emergency condition. If the Channel Selector is changed, the Emergency Mode
will follow to the newly selected channel. Cycle power to return the radio to normal
operation.
On channels programmed for analog transmissions, and channels programmed for
Mixed Mode transmissions with the ‘TX Digital’ switch OFF, pressing PTT in
Emergency Mode will result in a normal analog transmission.
