BASIC OPERATION

■

When [Emergency] is pushed for the specified time period, an 
emergency signal is transmitted once, or repeatedly, on the 
specified emergency channel, depending on the presetting.

A repeat emergency signal is automatically transmitted until 
the transceiver receives an acknowledgement signal, or you 
turn OFF the transceiver power.
When no emergency channel is specified, the signal is trans-
mitted on the previously selected channel.

If you want to cancel the emergency call, hold down [Emer-
gency] again before transmitting it.

If  your  transceiver  is  preset  for  Silent  operation,  you  can 
transmit an Emergency call without the beep sounding and 
the LED indicator lighting.

IMPORTANT: It is recommended to set a separate emer-
gency channel to provide reliable emergency calls.

D

Depending on the presetting, the following functions may be 
automatically activated. Ask your dealer for details.

• Auto TX function
After the emergency call transmission, audio from the micro-
phone  is  automatically  transmitted  for  a  specified  time  pe-
riod.

• Auto RX function
After the emergency call transmission, the transceiver stands 
by in the audible mode for the specified time period.

■

This function is available, depending on the transceiver version. 
When the transceiver has been left in a horizontal position for 
the specified time period*, the transceiver enters the emer-
gency mode, and then the countdown starts.
After the specified time period* has passed, an emergency 
call is automatically transmitted once, or repeatedly.

If the transceiver is placed in a vertical position before the first 
transmission, the transceiver exits the emergency mode and 
the emergency call is cancelled.

IMPORTANT: It is recommended to set a separate emer-
gency channel to provide reliable emergency calls.
