EMERGENCY CALLS
If your transceiver has been programmed with the Emergency
function, you can make emergency calls.
1 Press and hold the key programmed as [Emergency].
• Depending on the delay time programmed into your
transceiver, the length of time you must hold the Emergency
key will vary.
• When the transceiver enters Emergency mode, the transceiver
will change to the Emergency channel and begin transmitting
based on how the transceiver is set up.
2 To exit Emergency mode, press and hold the [Emergency]
key again.
• If the Emergency mode completes the preset number of cycles,
Emergency mode will automatically end and the transceiver
will return to normal.
■ Lone Worker Mode
Lone Worker Mode is a safety feature built into the
transceiver. If the transceiver is not operated for a
pre-programmed period of time, the transceiver will emit a
tone and automatically enter Emergency operation.
Press and hold the key programmed as [Lone Worker] for
2 seconds to toggle the Lone Worker function ON or OFF.
TALK AROUND
During interruptions in service (such as a power failure), you
can continue to communicate by using the Talk Around feature.
Talk Around allows you to communicate directly with other
transceivers without the use of a repeater, as long as they are
not too far away or there are no geographical obstacles in the
way.
Press the key programmed as [Talk Around] to toggle the
Talk Around function ON or OFF.
• The indicator appears while Talk Around is activated.
