Airbus Radio Altimeter Alive Standard Callout

Hi everyone,

According to PRO-NOR-SOP 90 Standard Callouts, when we hear the "2500 auto callout" there is a callout PM has to say "RADIO ALTIMETER ALIVE".

I was just wondering if we have to say that callout even if we hear the "2500" auto callout. According to one of the notes:

(2) PM monitors pin-programmed auto callout, or announces if inoperative.)

I understand if we hear the auto callout it is not necessary to give the "RADIO ALTIMETER ALIVE". I'd be grateful to hear your opinions as I don't see it that clearly.

Cheers
