Sending an Emergency Alarm with Emergency
Call
This feature allows you to send an Emergency Alarm to another

enabled, it automatically proceeds to the call mode after the
alarm is acknowledged.

the emergency call/alarm feature.

A high-pitched tone sounds, indicating that the alarm has
been received by the trunked system's central controller.
A dispatcher acknowledgment (four high-pitched tones)
follows, accompanied by an ACK RECEIVED display.
4
Hold the microphone vertically 1 to 2 inches (2.0 to 2.5 cm)
from your mouth.
5
Press and hold the PTT button. Speak clearly into the
microphone.
6
Release the PTT to end the transmission.

Press and hold the preprogrammed Emergency button until
a tone sounds to exit Emergency mode.
