Emergency Alarms and Calls are separate functions that can be individually enabled or 
disabled on each SMARTNET/SmartZone and P25 Trunked system. The Emergency 
option switch is required for these functions. Other emergency features are as follows:

• Emergency Alarms are transmitted on the selected talk group if emergency calls are 

disabled, and on the emergency talk group if emergency calls are enabled.

• Emergency Call talk group selection priority is as follows. For example, if a global 

emergency channel is not programmed, the emergency talk group of the selected 
channel is used and so on.

Global (radio wide) emergency channel

Emergency group of the selected channel

Talk group of the selected channel (tactical)

Announcement group of the selected channel

• The emergency programming of the system to which that emergency talk group is 

linked controls the emergency operation.

An emergency alarm is a special transmission that alerts a dispatcher of an emergency 
situation. It is sent automatically by pressing the Emergency option switch. The system to 
which the emergency channel is linked must have Emergency Alarms enabled. If not, 
Emergency Alarms are disabled. The alarm is sent on the control channel.
