user.
Group Call A half-duplex call initiated by an individual user to a group.
Document Conventions Owner’s Manual

Term Description
Half-duplex
Half-duplex communication is also called “two-way alternate communication”. It
indicates the communication is provided in both directions, but only one direction at
a time, that is, only one party is allowed to transmit or receive at a time.
Full-duplex
Full-duplex communication is also called “full-duplex synchronous communication”.
It indicates the communication is allowed in both directions simultaneously, that is,
both parties can transmit and receive at the same time.
Direct Mode
Operation
(DMO)
DMO supports half-duplex operation and allows the terminals to communicate
directly with each other, without using a TETRA network infrastructure. Thus
functions that require network access, such as telephone call, will be unavailable.
Trunked Mode
Operation
(TMO)
TMO supports either half-duplex or full-duplex operation and allows the terminals to
communicate with each other via the TETRA network. Thus functions that require
network access are available. To operate in TMO mode, the terminal must be
granted authorization by your service provider, and must stay within the network
coverage.

12.1 SSI&TSI Dialing Rules
In the TETRA system, subscribers are distinguished by different identities. Each subscriber is assigned
with a unique short subscriber identity (SSI), which serves a part of the TETRA subscriber identity (TSI).
And TSI is generally composed in this way: Mobile Country Code (MCC) + Mobile Network Code (MNC)
+ SSI. To initiate an individual call, please dial the SSI or TSI in compliance with the rules below.
z SSI Dialing
Make sure there are not more than 8 digits.
z TSI Dialing
¾MNC+SSI:
1) Input the MNC as it is;
2) SSI must be 8 digits long. Add 0 before the first digit of SSI which is shorter than 8 digits.
For example, when MNC is 20 and SSI is 504, you need to input 2000000504.
¾MCC+MNC+SSI:
1) MCC must contain 3 digits. Add 0 before the first digit of MCC which is shorter than 3 digits;
2) MNC must contain 4 or 5 digits. When the MNC is shorter than 4 digits, add 0 before its first
digit; when it is 5 digits long, use it directly;
3) SSI must be 8 digits long. Add 0 before the first digit of SSI which is shorter than 8 digits.
For example, when MCC is 460, MNC is 20 and SSI is 504, you need to input 460002000000504.
