Battery Charging
New battery packs must be fully charged before they are used. The battery should only be
charged using Sepura plc approved battery chargers. Failure to use an approved battery
charger may invalidate the warranty of the battery and the terminal.
A range of battery chargers is available that allow the battery to be charged while fitted to, or
removed from, the terminal (depending upon the charger model selected). When the battery
is fitted to the terminal, the battery can be charged via the facility connector located at the
base of the terminal. If the battery is charged with the terminal switched on, the time
remaining to charge the battery to its full capacity is shown on the terminal‟s display.
Space for user identity label
When charging, the colour of the tri-colour LED on the terminal indicates the progress of
battery charging: flashing amber shows waiting to charge, amber shows charging in progress,
green shows charging complete and red shows charging failure. A fully discharged battery
may not provide enough power to support the display during the initial phases of charging.
However, when sufficient power is available, the display will operate.
The mechanism for measuring the remaining charge in the battery may become
inaccurate over time. To avoid this, periodically run the battery flat in normal use (so
that the radio automatically switches off) and then re-charge the battery fully without
disconnecting it from the charger.
If a battery has been stored for a long time it may go flat and will not be able to power a
terminal until it has been recharged. In extreme cases it may be necessary to restart the
charging by disconnecting and reconnecting the charger (or switching the charger off then on)
as charging will stop after twenty minutes if the battery has not recovered enough charge in
that time to power the terminal.
The battery includes circuitry to protect against damage caused by accidental shorting
of the contacts. Once the battery has protected itself, it will not operate again reliably
until it has been removed from the terminal and been fully re-charged. If the battery is
not fully re-charged the battery meter and time-to-charge indication on the radio may
give an inaccurate reading.
The amount of charge in a battery, shown as a percentage, is displayed on the Battery card in
the Radio Information menu. Please see section on Radio Information.

Low Battery Warning.
The terminal warns the user when less than 12% of the
charge is left by displaying the Low Battery Icon on the top
line of the screen and repeatedly flashing the red LED for
one second at one second intervals. The Battery Level
indicator at the left hand side of the screen is also displayed
in red.
When the battery is flat there is an audible alert just before
the radio switches off.
As with all batteries, charging cycles reduce the cell capacity. The battery is specified to have
retained a nominal 80% of its original fully charged capacity after 500 charge cycles. Charging
should be conducted using a Sepura approved charger.
Batteries have a finite life; they deteriorate if they are not charged on a periodic basis.
Batteries should not be left for more than 6 months without recharging as the cells will
deteriorate and the batteries will not be recoverable.
Many professional and consumer products from cycle lamps to mobile phones and laptop
computers now use rechargeable lithium polymer cells because of their small size and high
energy density. When charged and used correctly these are reliable and safe. There are
some simple precautions that should be observed when charging and using Lithium polymer
packs. The precautions below apply to most/all Lithium polymer battery packs and chargers.
1. Properly designed Lithium polymer batteries and chargers contain effective protection
circuitry to safeguard the pack during charging and use, but in some very rare
circumstances of internal cell failure during charging, the protection circuits may be
ineffective and the pack may overheat. To minimise the chance of this causing further
damage, Lithium polymer battery chargers should be used in well ventilated areas away
from combustible material. For example, charging of a TETRA battery, mobile phone
battery or laptop battery should not be carried out with the battery and charger very near
to curtains, soft furnishings, paper or other combustible material.
2. Copy batteries are available for many products including TETRA radios made by Sepura.
These may be cheaper than approved batteries, but may not include protection features
used in the approved battery, so may be less safe and should not be used. The following
are recommended and are available from Sepura:
High Capacity Battery
Part No. 300-00392
Standard Capacity Battery
Part No. 300-00391.
When the terminal is switched on the battery is tested to check that it is an authentic
Sepura battery. This information is displayed on the Battery card in the Radio Information
menu. Please see section on Radio Information. If a non-Sepura battery is detected a
warning message is displayed (“Unidentified battery - charging suspended”) which may
be cleared by any key press and if charging of the battery is attempted no charging will
occur.

3. Use only Sepura approved chargers for charging Sepura products and Sepura approved
batteries. The following chargers are recommended and are available from Sepura:
Personal Rapid Charger
Part No. 300-00381
In Car Rapid Charger
Part No. 300-00382
Desktop Charger 1+1
Part No. 300-00383
Desktop Charger 6+6
Part No. 300-00384
Non-approved chargers may incorrectly charge the battery, leading to premature failure,
or render the battery potentially unsafe.
4. Sepura batteries are designed to be rugged and to give good service. However, as is the
case for all Lithium polymer batteries, it is possible for extreme mechanical damage to
weaken the internal structure of the cells within the battery. Therefore, if the battery
casing shows signs of severe damage (not the minor scratches and bumps of everyday
use), or has been subjected to major mechanical abuse, the battery should be safely
discarded immediately.

Battery Charging
The battery should only be charged with Sepura plc
approved battery chargers. Failure to use an approved
battery charger will invalidate the warranty of the battery and
the hand-held.
A range of battery chargers is available that allow the battery
to be charged while fitted to, or removed from, the hand-held
(depending upon the charger model and hand-held type
selected). When the battery is fitted to the hand-held, the
battery can be charged via the facility connector located at
the base of the hand-held. If the battery is charged with the
hand-held switched on, the time remaining to charge the
battery to its full capacity is shown on the hand-held‟s
display.
When charging, the colour of the LED on the hand-held indicates the progress of battery
charging: orange shows charging in progress, green shows charging complete, red shows
charging failure. A fully discharged battery may not provide enough power to support the
hand-held display during the initial phases of charging. However, when sufficient power is
available, the display will operate.
The battery includes circuitry to protect against damage caused by accidental shorting
of the contacts. Once the battery has protected itself, it will not operate again until it
has been removed from the hand-held and charged.
The hand-held warns the User of a Low battery condition by displaying the Low battery Icon
and repetitively flashing the Red LED for 1 second at 1 second intervals.
As with all batteries, charging cycles reduce the cell capacity. The battery is specified to have
retained a nominal 80% of its original fully charged capacity after 500 charge cycles. Charging
must be conducted using a Sepura approved charger.
Batteries have a finite life; they deteriorate if they are not charged on a periodic basis.
Batteries should not be left for more than 6 months without recharging as the cells will
deteriorate and the batteries will not be recoverable.
The latch on the battery is specified to 6000 insertions (equivalent to 8 insertions per day over
2 years if used every day of the year).
Many professional and consumer products from cycle lamps to mobile phones and laptop
computers now use rechargeable lithium-ion (Li-ion) cells because of their small size and high
energy density. When charged and used correctly these are reliable and safe. There are
some simple precautions that should be observed when charging and using Li-ion packs. The

MOBILE / GATEWAY TERMINAL ACCESSORIES
CONSOLE AND APPLICATIONS INTERFACE UNIT
The Mobile/Gateway terminal supports the connection of up to two console units. Each
console unit can be a Standard Console or a Handset Based Console, complete with keypad
and display, or an Applications Interface Unit, which is similar to a console but which does not
have a keypad and display. This enables the mobile to support the connection of up to four
audio accessories.
If two consoles are fitted, they both display the same information. This makes it possible for a
user to move from one console to another without having to take any special action. If two
users are using the same Mobile/Gateway terminal, operational procedures are required to
ensure that the actions of the two users do not conflict.
On some configurations it is possible to have a hands-free kit attached to each console. If this
is the case, only one of the remote microphones is live during a call. The remote microphone
which is live is the one attached to the console which accepted or made the call or switched
the call to hands-free.
AUDIO ACCESSORIES
The Mobile/Gateway terminal supports up to 4 audio accessories, which can be any
combination selected from:

none to two hands-free kits

none to four handsets

none to four fist microphones
MOBILE / GATEWAY TERMINAL AUDIO CONTROL
The Mobile/Gateway terminal supports the concept of a single controlling audio accessory for
a call. The controlling audio accessory is the one in control of the call, and the only one on
which the microphone becomes active.
When a fist microphone or hands-free kit is used, the received audio is directed to the
loudspeaker connected to the mobile unit. When a handset is used, the received audio
is directed to the handset earpiece.
The controlling audio accessory is normally the Remote Microphone used in conjunction with
the Loudspeaker, i.e. the hands-free kit or „Public‟ mode. If the user requires that a different
accessory should become the controlling accessory this may be achieved by pressing the
PTT key on that accessory or by taking that accessory off hook. If the new controlling
accessory has an earpiece then normally this is used for received audio instead of the
Loudspeaker („Private‟ mode).
When in „Private‟ mode the user can switch to „Public‟ mode by pressing the hands free soft
key if configured. Taking a handset off hook, or using its PTT will return to „Private‟ mode.
While the controlling accessory is not the Remote Microphone, the user may switch to
another accessory by pressing the PTT key on that accessory. Taking that accessory off-hook
does not change the controlling accessory. This allows a second user to listen to received
audio on another accessory.

If the controlling accessory is placed on-hook this clears the call unless customised
differently. Other accessories can be put back on-hook without clearing the call in progress.
All earpiece audio is left on all the time in order that multiple users may listen to the received
audio.
The audio presentation for duplex calls depends on the capability of the controlling accessory.
With a duplex controlling accessory, duplex calls have a duplex presentation. With a half
duplex accessory, duplex calls are controlled using the PTT key.

HEALTH AND SAFETY
USER INFORMATION
CARE OF YOUR TERMINAL
Use only a slightly damp soft cloth for cleaning all exterior surfaces. Do NOT use chemical
aerosol or abrasive cleaners.
To ensure efficient operation, clean the battery contacts periodically with a soft, dry cloth.
Never leave the terminal in extreme temperatures (over 55°C), for example behind glass in
very hot, direct sunlight.
BATTERIES
Safety
Please observe the following before handling batteries:
To prevent injury, do not allow metal objects to contact or short circuit the battery terminals.
Make sure that the battery terminals do not become dirty.
Do not immerse in water or incinerate.
If you need to replace the battery, use the Sepura plc approved battery types.
Disposal
Batteries must be disposed of in the correct manner according to Sepura environmental
policy. If in any doubt, refer to your supplier or local Sepura plc representative.
ACCESSORIES
Only accessories supplied or approved by Sepura plc are recommended for use with the
terminals. Any accessory used that is not supplied or approved by Sepura plc could cause
damage to the terminals and may invalidate the warranty. For safety reasons Sepura plc do
not recommend that accessories be used with a terminal without first gaining approval from
Sepura plc to do so.
TRANSMIT INHIBIT
The terminal can be switched into Transmit Inhibit should the user enter a RF sensitive area
(e.g. a hospital). This mode is indicated by the tri-colour LED rapidly flashing amber 4 times at
approximately two second intervals and the display of the transmit inhibit icon in the top right
hand corner of the screen.
In this state, the terminal does not transmit under any circumstances in either TMO or DMO,
except when using the emergency key if customised to do so. The terminal remains on the
selected group and in some circumstances can still receive conversations from this talkgroup.
The terminal can automatically send a status message to the customised destination when
the terminal enters Transmit Inhibit, and again when it leaves Transmit Inhibit.

Use of the emergency key whilst in Transmit Inhibit is supported; however, the time to set up
the emergency call could be increased by a few seconds.
ANTENNA
When fitting the antenna, do not over-tighten. Do not use the terminal without the antenna
attached unless the terminal is being used with an external antenna (e.g. on RSM).
ACOUSTIC SHOCK
Sepura plc has engineered an innovative audio solution for the terminal. Duplex audio (for
telephone type calls) and the half duplex audio (for radio calls) are directed to different
loudspeakers.
Duplex audio is routed to the low power Duplex Earpiece on the front of the terminal. A more
powerful loudspeaker, situated behind the alpha-numeric keypad on the STP800 terminals,
behind the panel on the lower front of the STP8100 series terminals and on the rear of the
SRH3000 series terminals, is used for half duplex audio. This loudspeaker directs the loud
audio away from a user‟s ear should the user accidentally answer a half duplex call as though
it were a duplex call.
WARNING: Hold the terminal close to the ear only when making, or receiving, duplex calls.
WATER INGRESS
This section applies to the STP8000 series and STP8100 series terminals only
If the terminal is used in extremely heavy rain it is possible that some water may seep
behind the keys on the keypad. This will not harm the terminal but may reduce the
volume of the loudspeaker. If this occurs it may be easily remedied by holding the
terminal firmly and shaking it once or twice to remove the water.
COMPLIANCE WITH STANDARDS
RADIATION PROTECTION
The terminals fully comply with the NRPB specification EN50361 and the ICNIRP guidelines
for exposure to electromagnetic fields mandated for mobile phones (2W per kg over a 10g
sample).
ELECTRO M AGNETIC COMPATIBILITY
The terminals meet the EMC requirements specified by the ETSI specification ETSI EN 301
489-18.
TYPE APPROVAL
The terminals have been self-certified to RTTE Directive EN 303 035-1 and CE marked to
1999/05/EC.
