Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1050861A2] In an emergency a test is made to see if at least one device is still able to detect sound (17) or other devices (12.1-12.4) can detect sound re-radiation. The result of a function test is passed on to a remote station along with an emergency message. This ensures that the remote station is aware of the condition of these detecting devices. The remote station then converts this to use still available devices for purposeful communication.
