Emergency Button HT-1250

Post by cfdeng3 »

We have HT-1250's and wanted to know if we could so something.

I know that you can do selected channel and revert with emergency buttons. We are trying to have the emergency button go to our FAO when we are on our channel but when on any other channel we are hoping to have it revert to a county mutual channel that has all our ID's programmed. I don't think it is possible but figured i would ask.

Thanks

Unfortunately, you are correct. The Emergency Revert Channel is a global setting accross all signaling systems.

the only other option is to turn the revert off and it will broadcast the emergency signal on whatever channel it is currently on.

So setup 2 MDC personalities... both identical except for your channel, leave it on selected, on the others put it to revert to the M/A channel... Make sense?

You cannot do that with the HT1250. You can only have one revert setting for all signaling systems. There is no way to change it on a per MDC system, or per personality basis.
