Emergency Calls - Icom VHF IC-F50 Insrtuction Manual

D Emergency Calls
The MDC 1200 Emergency feature can be accessed using the
[Emergency] key (p. 9). The transceiver will repeatedly send an
Emergency MDC 1200 command to the dispatcher for a pro-
grammed length of time until it receives an acknowledgement sig-
nal.
The emergency call can be transmitted without a beep emission
and LCD indication change depends on the setting.
With MDC 1200 Emergency, the transceiver can also be pro-
grammed to keep the microphone open during an emergency call,
allowing monitoring of the situation.
Ask your dealer for details.
D Stun and Revive
The dispatcher can send MDC 1200 signals that will stun or re-
vive your transceiver. If a Stun command is received that matches
your station ID, the transceiver will display "SORRY" and you can
not receive or transmit. When a Revive command is received that
matches your station ID, normal operation is restored.
