General description
Lincoln’s Remote Emergency Satellite Cellular Unit (RESCU) is designed
to expedite roadside, emergency or information assistance to motorists
who are uncertain of their location and/or are uncertain of whom to
contact for assistance.
The Lincoln RESCU system utilizes Global Positioning System (GPS)
technology and the nation’s cellular phone network to track vehicle
location and, at the touch of a control, put you in voice contact with the
Lincoln Security Response Center.
Two controls in the overhead console, Information (i) and Emergency
(S.O.S.) will activate the system:
When a control is selected, the RESCU System will direct the vehicle’s
cellular phone to automatically place a call to the response center’s
central computer. Once a connection is made, an electronic data message
will be transmitted. This data message will include:
Type of alarm (Information, Emergency or Air Bag activation)
Customer Identification Number (CID)
Latitude and longitude coordinates
Last recorded speed and direction of the vehicle
Time tag identifying when last position was taken
Call-back phone number
After the transmission is complete, the call is forwarded to an operator
who will verify the details of the request and confirm the vehicle’s
location using a computerized map.
Information Control
The Information control provides
the customer access to the
information such as points of
interest near their current location,
route assistance and other services
as they become available.
There may be charges incurred for certain services.
