Template Overview Zone Name The basic plan A 7 MC Main DISP B C OPS INC10 • Units are on the DISP (Dispatch) TG when not assigned to an incident. • Stations monitor the DISP TG. • When dispatched on an incident units will normally be assigned to the (OPS) Operation’s TG unless assigned to an INC (Incident) TG by ECC. • When clearing an incident units automatically switch back to the DISP TG to await their next incident. 1 Template Overview Zone Name The incident plan A 7 MC Main DISP B C D E F OPS INC10 INC11 INC12 ANN10 • Complex incidents will get assigned to an INC TG block at the time of dispatch. • A block of three INC TGs is available to the Incident Commander to be used at his or her discretion. – ECC will only monitor the first TG in the incident block - INC*0 unless specific arrangements are otherwise made with ECC. – The IC is responsible for monitoring the other TGs assigned. • The ANN*0 (Announce) TG will broadcast on all TGs within the block for communicating with everyone simultaneously. 2 Template Overview Zone Name The expanded incident plan A 7 MC Main DISP B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P OPS INC10 INC11 INC12 ANN10 INC20 INC21 INC22 ANN20 INC30 INC31 INC32 ANN30 FDTA OPS • The additional INC TG sets function in the same way. • For a very complex (towering inferno) incident multiple sets of incident TGs can be assigned to the incident. • The FDTA (Fire Department Talk-around) TG is a simplex channel for use when the trunked radio system is out of range. – This channel cannot be heard by ECC. – The ICs will have scanners to monitor FDTA. • The OPS TG is repeated in the last position on the TG dial so that it is easy to reach help - either end of the dial. 3 Template Overview The EMS zone plan Zone Name A B C 7 MC Main MC EMS DISP DISP OPS OPS INC10 CALL 9 D E INC11 INC12 CNSLT1 CNSLT2 F ANN10 • Zones are changed by using the softkeys on the front of the radio – Changing zones changes the mode selector over to a new set of TGs. • The EMS zone repeats the same DISP and OPS TGs that are in the Main zone. • The CALL TG functions just like the Call channel (Call 2-channel 40) on the State EMS radios for contacting EMRC. • After contacting EMRC a CNSLT (Consult) TG will be assigned by EMRC. 4 Template Overview Zone Name The expanded EMS & incident plan A 7 9 MC Main MC EMS DISP DISP B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P OPS OPS INC10 CALL INC11

position C to F in the EMS zone. – EMS units can remain in their zone for major incidents assigned to either to 20 or 30 series of INC TGs. – The 10 Series of INC TGs should primarily be assigned to incidents that don’t have EMS units assigned to minimize the need to change zones. • Position F is blank for possible future expansion of the CNSLT TGs. • Background fill colors are used to show where TGs or sets of TGs are repeated within and across zones. 5 Template Overview Zone Name The overall incident & EMS plan A 7 8 9 MC Main MC ALT MC EMS DISP DISP DISP B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P OPS
