EMERGENCY GROUP CALL

Placing an Emergency Group Call

An Emergency Group Call allows a user to have priority access to
his talkgroup members and provide them visual and audible indi-
cations of an emergency condition. The Emergency call can be
placed from any mode (private, group, phone).
1. Press and hold the Emergency Button. The portable will emit
an emergency start tone to indicate that you have successfully
requested an emergency call.
2. Press the PTT to talk. The currently
selected Talkgroup Mode will be selected
unless your organization preprogrammed
an emergency Talkgroup Mode. If this is
the case, the preprogrammed emergency
Talkgroup Mode will flash in the display.
The Talkgroup Mode appears in the sec-
ond line of the display as shown.
3. To end an emergency call, press and
hold the Emergency Button for 3 seconds.
The portable will return to the last
selected talkgroup. The initiator cannot
exit the emergency call without first can-
celling the emergency call.

Cancelling an Emergency Group Call

Press the Emergency Button until the unit generates an Emer-
gency Call Cancel tone. This tone indicates the cancellation has
occurred. The display will return to the non-emergency state.
An emergency call will be cancelled if no talkgroup activity
occurs for 30 seconds. The dispatcher, or any other person provi-
sioned to cancel an emergency call, can also cancel the emer-
gency call.

Receiving an Emergency Group Call

When an emergency call is initiated, other members of the talk-
group will be notified of an emergency condition.
