6.10.2. Making an Emergency Call
When the emergency key is pressed and held for a specific time (determined by the
FPP), the radio will change to emergency mode. Under emergency mode, the radio can
operate in three FPP configurable modes:
• Normal. The radio will continue to respond to PTT, channel change etc. while
displaying the E icon.
• Frozen. The default screen will freeze, with the E icon displayed indicating
emergency mode.
• Blank. The screen will blank giving no indication to others that the radio is in
emergency mode.
When emergency mode is triggered, the radio can be configured by the FPP to
transmit and receive on a cyclic basis with FPP programmed time periods. The display
will show ‘TX Em’:Channel No.
During Tx, the radio will generate an emergency broadcast call on either the currently
selected channel or an FPP nominated channel.
Others may listen to the automatic transmissions to hear conversations near the radio.
Turning the radio off and on will disable emergency mode.
