Hot Microphone Feature

If the Hot Microphone feature was programmed into your MTM800
Enhanced by your Service Provider, you can make an Emergency
Group Call and talk to the dispatcher (and members of your group)
without the need to press and hold the PTT.
The microphone will stay open for a time period (programmed by
your Service Provider). The microphone will stay open until:
• the Hot microphone time period expires
• you press PTT during the Hot Microphone period
• you press the End key
At the end of the Hot Microphone the Emgcy Mic Ended message
will be displayed and the MTM800 Enhanced returns to the
Emergency Mode. The Hot Microphone feature is disabled and PTT
operation returns to normal.
If required you can resume Hot Microphone by pressing the
Emergency button again.
