Change of Channels during Emergency

For ALL Emergency transmissions, when changing
channels:
• If the new channel is also preprogrammed for
Emergency, you can change channels while in
Emergency operation. The emergency alarm or call
continues on the new channel.
• If the new channel is NOT preprogrammed for
Emergency, the display shows NO EMERG, and you hear
an invalid tone until you exit the Emergency state or
change to a channel preprogrammed for Emergency.

Emergency Keep-Alive Feature

This feature, when enabled, prevents the radio from being
turned off by using the On/Off Control Knob when the
radio is in the Emergency state.

NOTICE:
The radio only exits the Emergency state using one
of the ways mentioned in the previous sections.
