Chain call
A chain call starts automatically when you hold the key for 2 sec. A chain call
makes the calls for the selected emergency contact in succession. The length of time
between calls is set in Settings > Calling > General > Chain Call Pause.
You should order the contacts in the Emergency Contacts tab with your most
likely emergency contact at the top of the list. The calls within this emergency contact
should be ordered to make calls that do not require operator intervention at the called
end (for example, Message call, Send Position call), followed by calls that require an
operator to answer. Once PTT is pressed, the chain call ends.
You should provide all of the information required to make the calls via the key
without the transceiver having to prompt for information, as this will slow down
progress of the call. In an emergency situation, you may not have time, nor be able, to
respond to prompts.
