Radio Alerts When Man Down Feature is Triggered

The Man Down alert tone volume is directly related to
the radio's volume. Ensure that the radio's volume is
loud enough so that the user does not miss the Post-
Alert tone.
Note: If the radio is programmed with Silent
Emergency, the radio inhibits the alert tone and visual
alert associated with the emergency feature.
If the radio is programmed in Surveillance Mode, the
radio inhibits all tones and lights on the radio
including the Man Down tones.

Triggering Emergency

When the user does not clear the Man Down
condition and the Post-Alert Timer comes to an end,
Emergency Alarm or call is triggered. The radio sends
emergency message to units within the same
Talkgroup. The radio also sends ID number and GPS
coordinates to dispatcher if these features are
enabled. User can exit Emergency following the
Emergency procedure. See
page 84 for details.
Note: At this point the Man Down features is
complete. Use normal Emergency procedures to
cancel Emergency transmissions.
Emergency Operation on

Radio Alerts When Man Down Enhanced is Triggered

Note: This feature is to be preprogrammed
specifically to a zone and channel which supports
Emergency feature.
The volume and repetition duration of Man Down
Enhanced alert tone could be customized and
preprogrammed to suite the required situation.
Consult your agent or qualified technician for more
details.
When the radio initiates Man Down Enhanced, you
hear the Critical Man Down Continuous alert tone
from the radio speaker. The volume of this tone is set
to the louder of the preprogrammed minimum level or
the current radio speaker level. This acts as a beacon
to find the radio.
Note: If the radio is programmed with Silent
Emergency, the radio inhibits the alert tone and visual
alert associated with the emergency feature.
If the radio is programmed in Surveillance Mode, the
alert tone can be heard from the radio speaker.
Once the alert tone is active, changing to another
channel with different setup triggers a different
response from the radio as described next.
