Alerting User When Man Down Feature is
Triggered
The Man Down alert tone volume is directly related to the
radio's volume. Ensure that the radio's volume is loud enough
so that the user does not miss the Post-Alert tone.
Note: If the radio is programmed with Silent Emergency, the
radio inhibits the alert tone and visual alert associated
with the emergency feature.
If the radio is programmed in Surveillance Mode, the
radio inhibits all tones and lights on the radio including
the Man Down tones.

When the user does not clear the Man Down condition and the
Post-Alert Timer comes to an end, Emergency Alarm or call is
triggered. The radio sends emergency message to units within
the same Talkgroup. The radio also sends ID number and GPS
coordinates to dispatcher if these features are enabled. User
can exit Emergency following the Emergency procedure. See
Emergency Operation on page 66 for details.
Note: At this point the Man Down features is complete. Use
normal Emergency procedures to cancel Emergency
transmissions.
