8.24 EMERGENCY COMMUNICATIONS
The P5300 portable radio is capable of sending an emergency alert and making emergency calls on the
network. The OpenSky system handles emergency calls with the highest priority, allowing you or the
people you serve to get needed help.
Emergency call and alert capability for a profile is configured by the system administrator.
The radio that initiates an emergency alert emits a signal of 3 distinct beeps that only goes
to the dispatch console.
Table 8-8: Emergency Calls vs. Emergency Alerts
EMERGENCY ALERT EMERGENCY CALL
An Emergency Alert message is
sent to the dispatcher console. The
dispatch console plays an
emergency tone when it receives
the message.
An Emergency Alert message is sent to the dispatcher console. All
peers (radios and consoles) and the dispatch console play the
emergency tone whenever an emergency call is detected. An
emergency tone plays for each new emergency, or when a profile
is changed, (assuming there is an emergency on one of the talk
groups for the new profile).
If the orange LED is flashing rapidly, the radio is receiving an
emergency call. If the LED is flashing every ½ second, the
selected talk group is in the emergency state (although not
transmitting). If the selected talk group is in the emergency state,
an asterisk displays next to the talk group name.
