the pre-programmed emergency system
and channel to send the emergency sig-
nalling and then change back to the se-
lected channel.
METHOD 4: Same as METHOD 3 but the radio will lock
on to the pre-programmed emergency
system and channel. Any attempts to
change the channel will be disabled.
The emergency state can be cleared by turning the
radio off and then back on.
Using 5-Tone Signalling For Emergency
Declaration
If 5-Tone signalling is defined for emergency declara-
tion in place of GE-STAR emergency signalling, a pre-
programmed tone sequence will be transmitted instead
of the GE-STAR sequence. This emergency declaration
functions as the GE-STAR emergency in all other re-
spects.
TONE ENCODE TRANSMISSION
In conventional mode two keys can be defined to be
tone encode triggers. If one of the pre-programmed tone
encode triggers is pressed, a pre-programmed tone se-
quence will be transmitted on the current system and
channel. (See
Emergency Operation
if EMER-
GENCY/HOME button is used.) The indicator will
light during tone transmission and a beep will sound at
the end of the transmission. If enabled, audible side tones
will be heard in the radio speaker as well. If PTT is
pre-programmed as one of the triggers, the microphone
