LONE WORKER
This ingenious feature provides an extra layer of security and safety for individuals who work remotely as well as for those who work in hazardous areas. As long as the buttons are pressed regularly, the radio operates normally; however, if there is a long lapse (programmable), it will sound an alert. In the absence of further response from
the user, the TK-2170/ 3170 will place an emergency call to a pre-determined person or group of people.
