3 Once a tone sounds, speak clearly into the microphone. 
When hot mic has been enabled, the radio automatically 
transmits without a PTT press until the hot mic duration 
expires.
While transmitting, the LED lights up solid green.
4 The radio automatically stops transmitting when:
Once the cycling duration between hot mic and receiving 
calls expires, if Emergency Cycle Mode is enabled.
OR
Once the hot mic duration expires, if Emergency Cycle 
Mode is disabled.
5 To transmit again, press the PTT button.
OR
Press the programmed Emergency Off button to exit the 
Emergency mode.
6 Press Emergency Off button to exit the Emergency mode.
If your radio is set to Silent, it does not display any audio or 
visual indicators during Emergency mode, or allow any received 
calls to sound through the radio’s speaker, until the 
programmed hot mic transmission period is over, and you press 
the PTT button.
If your radio is set to Silent with Voice, it does not display any 
audio or visual indicators during Emergency mode when you 
are making the call with hot mic, but allow sound through the 
radio’s speaker when the target radio responds after the 
programmed hot mic transmission period is over. The indicators 
only appear when you press the PTT button.
NOTE:  If the Emergency Alarm request fails, the radio does 
not retry to send the request, and enters the hot mic 
state directly.
Reinitiating an Emergency Mode
NOTE:  This feature is only applicable to the radio sending the 
Emergency Alarm.
There are two instances where this can happen:
• You change the channel while the radio is in Emergency 
mode. This exits the Emergency mode. If Emergency Alarm is 
enabled on this new channel, the radio reinitiates Emergency.
• You press the programmed Emergency On button during an 
Emergency initiation/transmission state. This causes the 
radio to exit this state, and to reinitiate Emergency.
