Emergency Alert with LMR Emergency call - A LEX device that is on channel provisioned with this
Emergency Mode will send an alert and give the user top priority on the channel.
•
Silent Emergency Alert - A LEX device that is on a channel provisioned with this Emergency Mode
will silently send an alert over the channel.
When the LEX device is paired with an LMR radio and an emergency is activated, it is equivalent to
pressing the LMR emergency button. If you are not paired with an LMR radio or the emergency fails
(for example out of range), the LEX device can be programmed for Backup Emergency. In either case,
if available, a text message with basic information can be sent to pre-provisioned numbers.
IMPORTANT: If a user has access to both Land Mobile Radio (LMR) and Broadband,
Emergency Mode is initiated first through the LMR. If the LMR network is not available or a user
has paired a LMR device but is not connected to Emergency, then the user is notified that
Emergency Mode has failed. Backup Emergency will then be initiated (if it is configured).
