Product Technical Information
Table 2: Product Technical Information
Description Value
Rated RF Power 10 W
Maximum Speaker Load 10 W at 4 Ω
Antenna Impedance 50 Ω
Ambient Temperature Range -30 °C to +60 °C
NOTICE: If the radio is in service, the surface tempera-
ture can rise up to 70 °C. Do not touch the hot surface.
Operating Time Continuous/Intermittent
Enhanced Data Transfer Support of TETRA Enhanced Data Service (TEDS).
NOTICE: The communication system determines the radio transmit and receive time (operating
cycle time). During overload, or beyond the systems specifications at high ambient
temperatures, the thermal control cuts down the RF power output, which reduces the radio
coverage range.
You can attach a colorful o-ring to a radio antenna to distinguish radios from one another.
An RFID knob is available as an optional accessory which allows tracking radios easily. The
knob contains an RFID tag which can be read by handheld scanners greatly enhancing the
speed of radio identification. The knob is a retrofit option and can replace an existing volume
knob.

Transmit Inhibit Mode
The Transmit Inhibit Mode is a mode in which the radio sends no radio transmissions. It is
recommended to activate the mode in RF sensitive areas, for example hospitals, airplanes, where
safety can be jeopardized due to transmission radiation.
To activate, select MENU → Networks → TXI Mode → Activate.
In this mode, the radio does not transmit under any circumstances except for the Emergency Calls. All
the functions and keys which cause transmission, for example registration to the network, changing
talkgroup or folder, sending SDS messages, or pressing the PTT button are disabled. Any transmission
trial causes the radio to display Not Allowed In TXI Mode notification and to play a tone.
Your radio can still receive:
• Group calls.
• Messages — stored in the Inbox.
• Private call attempts — stored in the Missed Calls list, without the option to respond.
When no danger to safety exists anymore (for example, you leave the RF sensitive area), you can
deactivate the Transmit Inhibit Mode and the radio returns to standard operation.
You can deactivate the mode by selecting MENU → Networks → TXI Mode → Deactivate, pressing
One-Touch button, or implicitly when initiating an Emergency Call.
NOTICE: RF Transmissions from the radio are prevented under the following conditions:
• TXI Mode is activated.
• The radio is turned off.
On entering or exiting the transmit inhibit mode, when the radio is camped on a cell, it sends a
specially designated SDS status message. This SDS message indicates to the SwMI that the radio is
entering or exiting transmit inhibit mode.
Mobility procedures that do not require the radio to send an uplink transmission are performed except
for cell reselection.
Chapter 2: Getting Started
Send Feedback 37
In transmit inhibit mode the radio joins group calls for any group that the radio is monitoring, but the
transmitting on that call is still prohibited.
The radio also displays any incoming SDS messages to the user. The missed call feature is active in
the transmit inhibit mode and allows checking what calls were missed. However, the radio attempts to
prevent call setup retransmission from being recorded as separate calls.
If you initiate an emergency call, the radio immediately leaves transmit inhibit mode and attempts to
start the emergency call if the radio is in service.
If the radio is turned off in the transmit inhibit mode, on turning on the radio asks whether to exit the
transmit inhibit mode. If you choose No, the radio turns off.
Selecting Talkgroups
From the home screen, use one of the following methods:
• Press left or right NAVIGATION key. Press Select to confirm.
• Select Optns → TG by abc. Enter a talkgroup name and select the talkgroup name from the list.
• Select Optns → TG by Folder. Select a folder and then a talkgroup name.
• Press ROTARY KNOB and rotate it until the required talkgroup name is displayed. Press Select to

Broadcast Call
The Broadcast Group Call (also called Site Wide Call) is a high-priority group call from the console
operator (or dispatcher) to all users located at one or more sites. The radios are configured to monitor
a Broadcast Call, but you cannot talk back. The call can be received as a normal Broadcast Call or an
Emergency Broadcast Call. The Broadcast Call preempts an ongoing Group Call that has the same or
lower call priority.
Ambience Listening (AL) Call
This feature allows a dispatcher to make a special call that allows listening to the conversations and
background noises within the range of a particular radio’s microphone. The call is set up without any
indication to the affected radio, and any lower priority ongoing voice call or packet data transfer may be
preempted.
After accepting the call, the radio transmits in a simplex call without any action from or indication to the
user. The Ambience Listening Call automatically ends when you initiate any voice call, switch to
Emergency or TXI Mode, or send Emergency Alarm.
One-Touch Button Feature
The One-Touch Button feature allows for quick activation of functions by pressing and holding keys or
buttons assigned to those functions.

Transmit Inhibit Mode
The Transmit Inhibit Mode is a mode in which the radio sends no radio transmissions. It is
recommended to activate the mode in RF sensitive areas, for example hospitals, airplanes, where
safety can be jeopardized due to transmission radiation.
To activate, select MENU → Networks → TXI Mode → Activate.
In this mode, the radio does not transmit under any circumstances except for the Emergency Calls. All
the functions and keys which cause transmission, for example registration to the network, changing
talkgroup or folder, sending SDS messages, or pressing the PTT button are disabled. Any transmission
trial causes the radio to display Not Allowed In TXI Mode notification and to play a tone.
Your radio can still receive:
• Group calls.
• Messages — stored in the Inbox.
• Private call attempts — stored in the Missed Calls list, without the option to respond.
When no danger to safety exists anymore (for example, you leave the RF sensitive area), you can
deactivate the Transmit Inhibit Mode and the radio returns to standard operation.
You can deactivate the mode by selecting MENU → Networks → TXI Mode → Deactivate, pressing
One-Touch button, or implicitly when initiating an Emergency Call.
NOTICE: RF Transmissions from the radio are prevented under the following conditions:
• TXI Mode is activated.
• The radio is turned off.
On entering or exiting the transmit inhibit mode, when the radio is camped on a cell, it sends a
specially designated SDS status message. This SDS message indicates to the SwMI that the radio is
entering or exiting transmit inhibit mode.
Mobility procedures that do not require the radio to send an uplink transmission are performed except
for cell reselection.
Chapter 3: Modes
Send Feedback 57
In transmit inhibit mode the radio joins group calls for any group that the radio is monitoring, but the
transmitting on that call is still prohibited.
The radio also displays any incoming SDS messages to the user. The missed call feature is active in
the transmit inhibit mode and allows checking what calls were missed. However, the radio attempts to
prevent call setup retransmission from being recorded as separate calls.
If you initiate an emergency call, the radio immediately leaves transmit inhibit mode and attempts to
start the emergency call if the radio is in service.
If the radio is turned off in the transmit inhibit mode, on turning on the radio asks whether to exit the
transmit inhibit mode. If you choose No, the radio turns off.
Emergency Operations
Emergency Operations are used in critical situations.
Pressing and holding the EMERGENCY button, or entering the Emergency Number and pressing the
SEND key, activates one or more services (depending on your service provider settings):
• Emergency Alarm
• SDS Status
• Silent Emergency
• Hot Microphone operation
• Emergency Individual Call (Private or MS-ISDN)
• GPS location information
NOTICE: It is possible to turn on the radio by pressing the EMERGENCY button. Depending on
the service provider settings, the radio can start Emergency Operations automatically. If the
radio is PIN-protected (except for SIM PIN), Emergency Operations will bypass the PIN lock for
the duration of the Emergency Operations.
When starting Emergency Operations, any ongoing voice call is aborted or cleared down, and any
packet data transfer in progress is aborted. However, the session is kept open.
During Emergency Operations, the radio rejects phone, PABX, and private calls, and does not monitor
the talkgroups in the selected scan list.
To terminate Emergency Operations, press the upperSOFT key.
Emergency Group Call
The Emergency Group Call has the highest communication priority that means it is the pre-emptive
kind of call. Emergency Group Call is available in both TMO and DMO. During Emergency Operations,
Emergency Group Call can be started by pressing pressing the EMERGENCY button. The radio can also
support Hot Microphone operation, which allows the Emergency Call to be conducted without pressing
the PTT button.
If the radio receives an incoming group call with emergency priority, the display shows that an
emergency call has been received, and a special audio alert is played.
An emergency group call can be configured as:
• A non-tactical call – initiated on a talkgroup preprogrammed by your service provider. When in non-
tactical emergency mode, you cannot switch talkgroups.
• A tactical call – initiated on the currently selected talkgroup.
In TMO, if the radio enters Emergency Operations while the Emergency Broadcast Call is active, the
radio continues on the call without initiating any calls and sends the Emergency Alarm.

is indicated by an appropriate tone, status icon, and red color of the display.
Non-Tactical Emergency
In Non-Tactical Emergency, the radio switches to a designated Emergency talkgroup when starting
Emergency Operations. This talkgroup is used for the complete duration of the Emergency Operations
(you cannot change the talkgroup).
In TMO, it is possible to configure the radio to make Emergency Non-Tactical Group Calls without
sending attachment. If this is set, the radio assumes implicit attachment after receiving a temporary
address.
In DMO, the Non-Tactical Emergency proceeds on the same frequency as the previously selected
talkgroup. The service provider can designate any ITSI address to be used for Emergency Operations,
(this can be an Open Group – broadcast address).
After exiting from Non-Tactical Emergency, the radio goes back to the previously selected talkgroup.
Emergency Individual Calls (Private or MS-ISDN)
The Emergency Individual Calls are Simplex or Duplex Calls with emergency priority. On pressing the
EMERGENCY button, the radio initiates an Individual Call to the provisioned address (private or MS-
ISDN). During this kind of call all user indications are unavailable and all other services are rejected.
Emergency Operation ends as soon as the Emergency Individual Call is ended.

Emergency Alarm
The Emergency Alarm is a special status message sent to the infrastructure while starting the
Emergency Operations. The radio can wait for infrastructure acknowledgment for this alarm and
attempts retries.
Each time the radio enters the Emergency Operation, it sends the Emergency Alarm. When the
Emergency Alarm is sent successfully, the respective audible tone sounds.
In addition, once the radio is in the Emergency Operation on pressing the EMERGENCY button, an
additional emergency alarm is sent (exception: during Hot Microphone transmission).
The message can be dispatched both in TMO and DMO.
Emergency SDS Status
Radio sends a status message with a preprogrammed value to the destination address set by your
service provider. Emergency SDS Status is available in TMO only. If no status acknowledgment or
negative acknowledgment is received, the radio retries sending the message. Status is not resend if
Emergency Alarm or Hot Microphone is configured.
Emergency Hot Microphone
The Hot Microphone allows you to talk without pressing the PTT button during Emergency Operations.
The transmission continues for a provisioned amount of time. Pressing the PTT button before the Hot
Microphone time expires ends the Hot Microphone operation. Then normal PTT operation in
Emergency group call takes over (that is, the transmission is ongoing for the time the PTT button is
held).
Subsequent EMERGENCY button presses during the Emergency Operation restarts the Hot
Microphone transmission.
If a talk permit is granted to another member of the group, the Emergency Call received tone is played.
If configured, the radio automatically attempts to get talk permit again.
Pressing EndSOFT key or END key ends the Hot Microphone operation.
Alternating Hot Microphone
The Alternating Hot Microphone is an enhancement of the Hot Microphone. After activation, the radio
alternately enters transmission phases (your microphone is active) and reception phases (you can only
listen) for an amount of time precisely determined by your service provider.
If this feature is enabled, you can initiate the Alternating Hot Microphone by pressing the EMERGENCY
button. If you want to finish earlier or skip the transmission phase, press the END key.
The Alternating Hot Microphone terminates when one of the following conditions is met:
• The radio exits the Emergency Mode.
• The Alternating Hot Microphone timer expires.
• The PTT button is pressed.
• The upper SOFT key is pressed (only during the transmission phase).
NOTICE: When the radio goes out of the service, it enters the reception phase and the
Alternating Hot Microphone is on hold. When the radio is back to the service, the Hot
Microphone transmission and the Alternating Hot Microphone resume.

Silent Emergency Mode
The Silent Emergency Mode is a type of emergency services that provides no audible indications and
no keypad tones at the entrance. All the display indications are as in the home mode. However, the
radio cannot use any services except for:
• Receiving Ambience Listening
• Sending Silent Emergency Alarms
• Sending GPS location reports
NOTICE: If you try to activate any other feature, it is blocked.
If the Silent Emergency feature is enabled, the radio enters Silent Emergency Mode on pressing the
EMERGENCY button. After entering this Mode the radio stays in TMO or switches to it, depending on
the actual state. Once in TMO, the radio sends Silent Emergency Alarm.
NOTICE: If the radio is in a private or group call, the radio waits until the call ends and then
enters the Silent Emergency Mode.
The radio keeps re-sending the alarm until successful sending is confirmed. After the alarm is
successfully delivered, the radio stays in Silent Emergency Mode and waits for the Ambience
Listening.
Your radio exits the Silent Emergency Mode, under the following conditions:
• Press MENU and then # key within 3 seconds.
• Press MENU simultaneously with right NAVIGATION key.
• Press both SOFT keys simultaneously.
• No success in sending the Silent Emergency Alarm and the maximum number of retries has been
reached.
• The control room terminates the Silent Ambience Listening.
• The Ambience Listening is disconnected due to another reason.
If you turn off the radio in the Silent Emergency Mode, the radio switches to pseudo power off state. In
this state, the radio appears to be turned off. However, the radio is still on and in the Silent Emergency
Mode. On turning the radio on during the pseudo power off state, the radio acts as during turning on
and still is in the Silent Emergency Mode.
Invisible Emergency
It is possible for the service provider to disable visual and audible indications of performing Emergency
Operations on the radio. The purpose of this feature is to hide the fact of using Emergency Operations
in a critical situation (e.g. direct attack on the user) and thus to provide additional layer of safety.
Emergency Mode by Dialing
This feature allows you to trigger Emergency Mode by dialing a predefined number. It initiates the
same Emergency services as you would use the EMERGENCY button. Your radio can store up to eight
Emergency numbers.
NOTICE: If this Emergency Mode was triggered by Emergency number (not by EMERGENCY
button), you can press the END key to exit the Emergency Mode.

TMO
A DMO/TMO gateway is used to provide gateway connectivity between radio operation in the DMO
and the TETRA TMO network. In other words, the gateway mode provides the interface between
TETRA DMO and TMO modes.
While in the gateway mode, any individual call from both DMO and TMO cannot be answered. If the
call is incoming from TMO, it is rejected with disconnect cause as the called party is busy. The missed
call is added to the missed call list. If the call is incoming from DMO, it is ignored.
While in the gateway mode, group calls are supported. When the gateway receives a group call
addressed to its current selected TMO talkgroup, it forwards the call on to the respective mapped DMO
talkgroup. If the DMO channel is not free, and the incoming call has Emergency priority, then
preemption request is sent.
When the gateway receives a group call addressed to its current selected DMO talkgroup, it forwards
the call on to the respective mapped TMO talkgroup. The DMO radio that initiated the call requires

GPS Location Service
The GPS Location Service feature uses information from Global Positioning System (GPS) satellites
orbiting the Earth to determine the approximate geographical location of your radio.
The GPS Location Service availability, accuracy, and the position calculation time vary depending on
the environment in which you use the radio. The GPS Location Service can assist your dispatcher or
colleagues in many ways such as more efficient deployment of resources or locating your radio when
you trigger your emergency service.
The radio can display the location information directly on the screen or send it over the air to your
dispatcher to display it in the control center. Check your radio configuration details with your service
provider.
IMPORTANT: Where the signals from satellites are not available, the GPS Location Service
does not work. This situation usually happens when your radio cannot establish a view of a
wide area of open sky, for example, when the GPS antenna is covered or facing the ground.
Such situations include being:
• In underground locations
• Inside buildings, trains, or other covered vehicles
• Under any other metal or concrete roof or structure
• Near a powerful radio or television tower
• In extreme temperature outside the operating limits of your radio
Even if your location information can be calculated in such situations, it may take longer to do so.
Therefore, in any emergency situation, always report your location to your dispatcher. Where adequate
signals from multiple satellites are available, your GPS Location Service feature provides a location,
most probably near to your actual location.
The radio can be triggered to send Location Reports in various circumstances, for example:
• Upon a request
• Entering Emergency Mode
• At specified time intervals
• At specified distance intervals
The Location Reports can be sent both in TMO and DMO by using:
• SDS messages
• Packet Data
The radio can be configured to give audio-visual notifications upon sending the Location Reports.
Depending on the radio settings, viewing the radio position and the status of the visible satellites is
available. The position may consist of longitude and latitude, UK, or Irish grid coordinates.

Enhancing GPS Performance
Sometimes the GPS feature is unable to complete a location calculation successfully. You hear an
audible tone indicating that your radio cannot see the satellites.
The GPS feature works best where there is nothing between your radio and a large amount of open
sky. To maximize the ability of your radio to determine a location fix, avoid closed space, tall buildings,
and foliage. If possible, do not use GPS in underground parking lots, tunnels, under bridges, and close
to high buildings.
Enabling GPS
Procedure:
1From the home screen, press the MENU key.
2Select Location → Interface.
3Select On.
NOTICE: Your service provider can enable this feature.
GPS Icon
When GPS is enabled, the following icon is displayed in the status icon area: Depending on the
current GPS state, the icon can be solid – GPS has a fix, or blinking – GPS is searching for a fix. The

GPS – Things to Keep in Mind
Where adequate signals from multiple satellites are not available, the GPS feature of your radio does
not work. Such situations include but are not limited to:
• In underground locations
• Inside of buildings, trains, or other covered vehicles
• Under any other metal or concrete roof or structure
• Near a powerful radio or television tower
• When your GPS antenna is covered (for example, by your hand or other object) or facing the
ground
• In temperature extremes outside the operating limits of your radio
Even where location information can be calculated in such situations, it may take longer to do so.
Therefore, in any emergency situation, confirm your location with your dispatcher.
Furthermore, please note that even where adequate signals from multiple satellites are available, your
GPS feature provides only an approximate location, often within 20–100 meters from your actual
location.

Private Call
The Private Call, also called point-to-point, or individual call, enables calling between two individuals.
No other radio can hear the conversation. This call type can be carried out in two ways:
• Duplex call (if the system allows), in TMO Mode. Both parties can speak at the same time.
• Simplex call, in TMO or DMO Mode. Only one party can speak at a time.
When a DMO Private Call takes place, radios not involved in this call receive the channel busy
indication. The radios are identified using its radio numbers.
Interaction with the accessories:
• Fist Microphone — during the Private Call, if you hang the microphone into the clip the call ends or
the audio switches to the speakers (if connected). Exact behavior depends on your service provider
settings.
• Telephone Style Handset — during the Private Call, if you hand the handset into the holder, the call
ends or the audio switches to the speakers (if connected). Exact behavior depends on your service
provider settings.
NOTICE: To end the Private Call if audio was switched to the speaker, press ON/OFF/END/
HOME key.
To answer a Private Call, use one of the following methods:
• Press the PTT button.
• Take the Fist Microphone or Telephone Style Handset off hook. If the Handset is off hook, the
radio’s external speaker mutes and the Handset’s internal speaker activates.

Radio Messaging System (RMS)
The Radio Messaging System (RMS) feature enables radio to receive and send RMS messages
through the TETRA network using the Short Data Service.
There are two types of RMS messages:
• RMS Status – a predefined code that is sent bidirectionally between the radio and the service
provider. The radio can have up to ten statuses that are assigned to numeric keys from 0 to 9. The
latest received or sent RMS status is kept on the home screen until the next power cycle. A
received RMS status is displayed in blue color font on the home screen.
RMS Free Text – a unidirectional message containing free text that is sent to the radio by the
service provider. Since this type of message is longer, the radio displays only its beginning on the
home screen and to read its remaining part, you need to go to Menu → Messages → RMS Box.
The latest RMS free text is kept on the home screen until the next power cycle.
RMS free text messages and incoming and outgoing RMS statuses (with the exception of RMS
statuses sent) are stored in the RMS Box. Its capacity is maximum ten entries for incoming and
outgoing RMS messages. If the RMS Box is full, any new incoming or outgoing RMS message
overwrites the oldest message (received or sent).
The radio receives and sends RMS messages only from and to the numbers predefined by your
service provider.
NOTICE: This is a selling feature.

heads: CH1 and CH2. Almost all menu items inside them are common for both control heads, except
for: Set Volume, Accry Setup, and Font Level (provided that control heads are different). These
menu items are configured separately for each control head.
NOTICE: If this feature is enabled by your service provider, appropriate icons appear on the
display.
Check with your service provider default accessory selections and the radio behavior for all types of
calls as each control head can have different setup.

Interactions between Control Heads
Your service provider can connect to one transceiver either two the same control heads (two Remote
Ethernet Control Heads, or two Telephone Style Control Heads), or two different control heads (one
Remote Ethernet Control Head and one Telephone Style Control Head).
You can use both control heads interchangeably for the same activity (for example, writing a
message). If you start an activity on one control head you can continue it on the second, provided that
token is free.
Token is a right to use a key or button for a period of time. If you press a key/button on one control
head, token activates on it, and no one can press anything on the second control head until token time
passes. After you release the key/button, token becomes available again and can be taken over by the
second control head. When token is activated, Key Press Token icon is visible on the display. By
default, token time is set to 3 seconds.
NOTICE: Token does not apply to EMERGENCY button and ON/OFF/END/HOME key. These can be
pressed on both control heads at any time.
If control heads are different, when you operate on one control head, the second one displays screen
saver.

Dual Control Head Link
Dual Control Head Link is a connection that occurs when both control heads are properly connected to
the transceiver and can communicate.
When the Dual Control Head Link is established, control heads play a tone and display Dual Control
Head icon. Full functionality is available on both devices.
When one control head cannot connect to the transceiver upon power up, the radio displays Single
Control Head icon and enters Single Control Head mode.
When one control head disconnects from the transceiver during operation:
• The active control head displays Link Error icon.
• The inactive control head displays Link Error and shows Link Error display (if power is available).
Turning on/off one control head results in simultaneous turning on/off the second control head.
Audio Accessories
Depending on a call type, voice can be routed to control heads and audio accessories connected to
them in different ways.
During an outogoing group call, voice can be heard either on one control head or on both control heads
(depending on your service provider’s settings).
During an incoming group call, voice is always heard on both control heads. However, if two
accessories are connected to one control head (to the front and the rear connector), voice is
transferred through only one of them, the one with higher priority. Priority is following (from the
highest): handset (must be off-hook), HSM, external speaker.
Private calls are always transferred to the control head that receives a call.

Only one microphone/PTT can be opened at a time. The microphone that is pressed as first is allowed
to initiate the transmission.
Keys Interactions
If any key except EMERGENCY button and ON/OFF/END/HOME key are pressed on any control head, Key
Press Token icon is displayed and all keys on the other control head are blocked. This behavior is
called token and means the right to use a key or button for a period of time.
NOTICE: Your service provider can adjust the time that the keypad is blocked on the other
control head. At any time EMERGENCY button and ON/OFF/END/HOME key can be pressed on both
control heads.
RUA/RUI
Radio User Assignment (RUA) and Radio User Identity (RUI) enables authentication service. Only the
successful logon on any temporary radio, provides the full access and your permanent radio
functionality, so you can be still reached with your permanent number. A logon failure results in limited
service.
You can differentiate the RUA/RUI state by the interface color:
• Blue — you are logged on
• Gray — you are logged off
Radio States
• Full Service — user logon was successful. Your radio has full functionality.
• Limited Service — user not logged on. Specified by the service provider.
• Pseudo Log On — occurs only in the Local Site Trunking (LST). You radio has full functionality
available (depending on the service provider settings) except some services like forwarding calls.
The RUI Pseudo Log On icon is displayed.
Book On
Your service provider assigns particular radio to one person for a predefined period of time. You are
only going to see the screen with your login and the full service is granted.

WAP Push
WAP push allows WAP content to be pushed to a radio. This push is carried out by sending a specially
formatted (Push Access Protocol) XML document to the Push Proxy Gateway, that in turn forwards the
document to the radio.
A WAP push message is an encoded message including a link to a WAP address. On receiving a WAP
push, a WAP enabled radio automatically gives the option to access the WAP content. The
implemented WAP push is compliant to WAP 2.0 standard.
The radio supports WAP 2.0 through a proxy only. Proxy-less connections are not supported.

Types of Call-Out Alerts
There are four types of the Call-Out alerts:
• Normal Call-Out – an alert message that is sent by a dispatcher either to a single radio or to a group
of radios.
• Storm Plan – an alert message that is sent by a dispatcher to a group of radios. To raise its
reliability, it is sent several times. You are not able to respond to the Call-Out alert and any key
press takes you to the information phase.
• Fallback Mode – an alert message that is limited only to voice communication. To initiate this type
of Call-Out, press a One-Touch key predefined by your service provider. It can be cleared manually.
NOTICE: Fallback is only possible when the radio is in Local Site Trunking.
• Test Call-Out – a special Call-Out alert that is sent by the dispatcher to test this feature. On
receiving the Test Call-Out, the radio plays a tone and displays Test Call-Out. To respond and
clear the alert, press the Test OKSOFT key.
Call-Out Modes Interaction
Call-Out feature operation is different in other modes:
• TXI Mode — you can read the message but you cannot respond to it. You have an option to leave
the TXI Mode by pressing soft key or reject the Call-Out message.
• DMO Mode — Call-Out is not supported.
• Emergency Mode — all Call-out alerts are ignored.
Call-Out Service Phases
In the Call-Out mode there are following phases:
• Alerting phase — receives a Call-Out message. The alarm tone indicates the message. Text is
displayed and you have following options to use: Accept, Reject or MENU. If you accept the alert, no
other service from this point can interrupt.
NOTICE: You can stop the alert tone by pressing PTT or any of the soft keys.
• Information phase — you are still in the Call-Out mode and you can receive more detailed
information about the incident that occurred through subsequent text or the voice message. You
can query for more information using voice group call or Call-Out text function which enables you to
send a text message. You can always respond and send back the text or the voice message using
voice group call.
Shadow Groups (Address Bundle)
The Shadow Groups feature (also known as Address Bundle) offers a way of sending messages to
multiple destinations or recipients simultaneously. Three types of messages are supported by the
feature:
• Status messages (including Emergency Alarms)
• GPS LIP (TETRA Location Information Protocol) reports
Chapter 6: Features

• RMS/FMS messages
Shadow Groups in TMO
Each Shadow Group may contain up to four target addresses. Each talkgroup may be configured to
send status messages, GPS LIP reports, or RMS/FMS messages to a specific Shadow Group.
Shadow Groups in DMO
In DMO, the Shadow Group contains one target address. Each talkgroup may be configured to send
status messages or GPS LIP reports to a specific Shadow Group.
Each radio can store up to 255 Shadow Groups (both in TMO and DMO).
The Shadow Groups feature may affect Emergency Calls setup time to be slightly elongated.
