Alert Timer comes to an end, Emergency Alarm or call is
triggered. Your radio sends emergency message to units within
the same Talkgroup. Your radio also sends ID number and GPS

Alerting User When Man Down Enhanced is
Triggered
Note:
This feature is to be preprogrammed specifically to a
zone and channel which supports Emergency feature.
The volume and repetition duration of Man Down
Enhanced alert tone could be customized and
preprogrammed to suite the required situation.
Consult your agent or qualified technician for more
details.
When the radio initiates Man Down Enhanced, you hear the
Critical Man Down Continuous
alert tone from the radio
speaker. The volume of this tone is preprogrammed to a
minimum level or to the current radio speaker level. Whichever
louder is applied. This can act as a beacon to find the radio.
Note:
If the radio is programmed with Silent Emergency, the
radio inhibits the alert tone and visual alert associated
with the emergency feature.

alert tone can be heard from the radio speaker.
