Emergency Remote Monitor Enable |
(Conventional Emergency Profiles, MDC) |
Enables emergency mode Remote
Monitor operation. Emergency Remote Monitor occurs on the radio once one
of the two following scenarios is true: When an Emergency Alarm (
see Emergency
Type "Alarm and Call") is successfully received by the dispatcher
/ console, and
then an Emergency Alarm Ack (acknowledge) is successfully received back
to the radio; or
when an MDC Remote Monitor Command
has been received (by the radio) during emergency mode. Once the radio
is in Emergency Remote Monitor mode, the radio automatically keys-up and transmits surrounding
audio from its "hot" microphone. This feature applies for the
current Conventional Emergency Profile.
|
Both the "Ack" and the "Remote Monitor Command" contain a Tx Multiplier value, an Rx Multiplier value and a Global Multiplier (set to "True" or "False"). These values are defined by the dispatcher / console. |
|
The radio uses the Tx Multiplier (delivered by the Ack or the Remote Monitor Command) multiplied by the CPS-defined Tx Base Time to determine the amount of time of this "hot" microphone transmission. If the Global Multiplier (delivered by the Ack or the Remote Monitor Command) is set to "True", the calculated transmission time is doubled. |
|
Once this transmit time has expired, the radio de-keys for the specific receive / wait-time. This receive / wait-time is determined by multiplying the Rx Multiplier (delivered by the Ack or the Remote Monitor Command) by the CPS-defined Rx Base Time. Again, if the Global Multiplier (delivered by the Ack or the Remote Monitor Command) is set to "True", the calculated receive / wait-time is doubled. |
|
Once this transmit-time-period and then the receive / wait-time-period have both occurred, the radio then goes into an Emergency Alarm sequence (see Emergency Type "Alarm & Call"). |
|
The Emergency Remote Monitor cycle begins again when either an Emergency Alarm Ack is received by the radio, or a Remote Monitor Command is received by the radio (during Emergency mode). |
|
This Emergency Remote Monitor cycle is ended by either the dispatcher sending an Emergency Alarm Ack with a zero "0" Tx Multiplier value, and a zero "0" Rx Multiplier value (also known as the "Dispatch Console Values"), or when a radio-user PTT button-press is detected by the radio. |
|
The Emergency Type field must be set to "Alarm and Call" for this selection to be valid. |
When the radio is model / option capable.
