Man Down (also called Fall Detection or Tilt Alert) uses accelerometer or gyroscope sensors in the radio to detect a sudden and sustained change from vertical to horizontal orientation — the physical signature of a fall. When detected, the radio initiates a countdown alert that the user can dismiss if they are conscious and mobile. If no response is received within the countdown window, the radio automatically transmits an emergency distress call with GPS coordinates to dispatch and designated responders. Man Down is distinct from Lone Worker protection — Lone Worker relies on periodic user check-ins; Man Down relies on physical motion detection and triggers automatically without user input. Many advanced Motorola Solutions radios support both features simultaneously.
