Responding to an Emergency Alert
Note: The Group contact used for the Emergency
Alert should not be used for voice communication.
This could prevent other radios from sending and
receiving Emergency Alerts on the same group.
An Emergency Alert from a radio indicates that the
user is in an urgent situation. You may respond to the
alert by initiating a private call to the radio who
declared the emergency, initiating a group call to a
designated talk group, sending the radio a Call Alert,
initiating a Remote Monitor of that radio, etc. The
proper response is determined by your organization
and the individual situation.
Initiating an Emergency Call
Note: If your radio is set to Silent, it does not display
any audio or visual indicators during Emergency
mode until you press the PTT button to initiate a voice
transmission.
If your radio is set to Silent with Voice, it does not
initially display any audio or visual indicators that the
radio is in Emergency mode. However, your radio
unmutes for the transmissions of radios responding to
your emergency. The emergency indicators only
appear once you press the PTT button to initiate a
voice transmission from your radio.
For both “Silent” and “Silent with Voice” operation, the
radio automatically exits silent operation after the
Emergency Call is finished.
