could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment (FCC rule part 15.21).
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must
accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
(FCC Rule Part 15.19(a)(3)).
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A
digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a
commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential
area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct
the interference at his own expense (FCC Rule Part 15.105).
When used with the High Gain Tetra Modular Whip antenna (maximum antenna gain 5dBi),
the antenna must be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 31 cm from all
persons during normal operation to ensure compliance for RF Exposure.
When used with the rigid Tetra Modular Whip antenna (maximum antenna gain 0dBi), the
antenna must be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 25 cm from all persons
during normal operation to ensure compliance for RF Exposure.
This Class A digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003.
To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be
so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that
permitted for successful communication
This radio is intended for use in occupational/controlled applications where users have been
made aware of the potential for exposure and can exercise control over their exposure. This
radio device is NOT authorized for general population, consumer or similar use.

Fitting and Removing the Battery
Before fitting a battery please ensure that the SIM Card holder/Micro SD card cover is latched
shut. To fit, unpack the battery and slot it into the rear of the radio. Push the battery down until
the catch clips into the bottom of the case. The battery is fully secure when this catch has
clipped into position. To remove, push the catch upward towards the top of the radio. The
battery pack unclips and can then be removed.
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 radio.
A range of battery chargers is available that allow the battery to be charged while fitted to, or
removed from, the radio (depending upon the charger model selected). When the battery is
fitted to the radio, the battery can be charged via the facility connector located at the base of
the radio. If the battery is charged with the radio switched on, the time remaining to charge
the battery to its full capacity is shown on the radio’s display.
When charging, the colour of the tri-colour LED on the radio 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.
Safety Precautions
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.
When the radio is switched on the battery is tested to check that it is an authentic Sepura
battery. This information may be viewed on the Battery card in the Radio Information
menu. Please see section on Radio Information in the Sepura TETRA Radios User
Guide. If a non-Sepura battery is detected in a STP radio, depending on the
customisation of the radio, a warning message is displayed (“Unidentified battery –
Powering Down”) and the radio switches off, or 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.
Depending on the customisation of the radio, if a Sepura battery is identified, the
percentage of charge remaining is then displayed.
3. Use only Sepura approved chargers for charging Sepura products and Sepura approved
batteries.
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
For STP8X series radios: The battery must not be charged in a hazardous
environment. Do not use the charger in a hazardous environment.
New battery packs must be fully charged before they are used. The battery must only be
charged using Sepura plc approved battery chargers. If an attempt is made to use a non-
approved battery charger the ATEX/IECEx safety rating will be invalidated and the radio will
switch off. This may also invalidate the users’ insurance.
The Sepura battery charger allows the battery to be charged either while fitted to or removed
from the radio.

RECAUTIONS
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.
When the radio is switched on the battery is tested to check that it is an authentic Sepura
battery and, if so, information about the battery may be viewed on the Battery card in the
Radio Information menu. Please see section on Radio Information in the Sepura TETRA
Radios User Guide. If a non-Sepura battery is detected in a STP radio, a warning message is
displayed (“Unidentified battery – Powering Down”) and the radio switches off.
If a Sepura battery is identified, the percentage of charge remaining is then displayed.
Use only Sepura approved chargers for charging Sepura products and Sepura
approved batteries
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.
The following warnings and information apply to all STP radios:
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 radio
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 and then on) as
charging will stop after twenty minutes if the battery has not recovered enough charge in that
time to power the radio.

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 radio 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 in the Sepura TETRA
Radios User Guide.
Low Battery Warning
The radio 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
displayed in red on the STP9000, STP9100, STP8000, STP8100
and STP8X series radios.
This screen shot shows the display of the Low Battery Icon on the
STP9200 and STP8200 radios.
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.

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. The Battery Level
indicator at the left hand side of the screen is also displayed in
red on the SRH3800 and SRH3900 radios.
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.
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
precautions below apply to most/all Li-ion battery packs and chargers.
1. Properly designed Li-ion 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, Li-ion battery
chargers should be used in well ventilated areas away from combustible material. For
example, don’t charge your TETRA battery, mobile phone battery or laptop battery with
the battery and charger very near to curtains, soft furnishings, paper or other combustible
material.

2. Copy batteries are available for many products, particularly mobile phones and more
recently TETRA radios, including those 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.
3. Use only Sepura approved chargers for charging Sepura products. 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 Li-ion 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, do not continue to use the battery.

The Mobile/Gateway radio supports the connection of up to two console units. Each console
unit can be a Standard Console, Colour Console or a Handset Based Console (via an the
Interface & Handsfree Box), 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 6 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 radio, 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.

ONTROL
The Mobile/Gateway radio 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.

damage to the radios and may invalidate the warranty. For safety reasons Sepura plc do not
recommend that accessories be used with a radio without first gaining approval from Sepura
plc to do so.
For STP8X series radios Sepura approved ATEX/IECEx Accessories must be used.
The radio must not be operated unless an accessory is attached or the RuSC Cover
is screwed in place.
The RuSC cover and direct RuSC mounted accessories must not be fitted, or
removed or replaced while in a hazardous environment.
When attaching the RuSC cover and accessories, to ensure that a seal is maintained,
tighten the screw to 0.15 Nm and 0.25Nm respectively.
When an accessory is connected to any STP radio, the accessory is tested to check that it is
an approved Sepura accessory. If a non-Sepura accessory is detected one of the following
warning messages is displayed:
• Accessory Invalid
• Accessory Unsupported
• Accessory Unapproved
STP9000 and STP8000 Series
To minimise RF exposure please ensure that if using an Advanced RSM with Antenna
that it is held a minimum distance of 25mm from the mouth during use.
If “Accessory Invalid” is displayed there is an accessory connected to the radio but the radio
cannot determine what it is. It is likely that the accessory’s software or configuration is
corrupted. Continued safe operation cannot be guaranteed. It is recommended that the
accessory is disconnected as soon as possible.
If “Accessory Unsupported” is displayed the installed radio software may not be able to fully
support the connected accessory. If the accessory is a Sepura approved accessory that is
new to the market a radio software upgrade may solve the issue. If the accessory is an
unapproved 3rd party accessory the radio may be able to provide partial accessory support
but safe operation cannot be guaranteed.
If “Accessory Unapproved” is displayed the connected accessory is not a Sepura approved
accessory. The accessory may still work with the radio but safe operation cannot be
guaranteed.
STP8X Series
If the screen displays 'Accessory Invalid', 'Accessory Unapproved' or 'Accessory
Unsupported': a non Sepura approved accessory has been attached to the radio
which may compromise the safety ratings. The user may, however, continue
operation of the radio with the accessory connected.

Sepura plc has engineered an innovative audio solution for the radio. 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 radio. A more
powerful loudspeaker, situated behind the alpha-numeric keypad on the STP9000, STP8X000
and STP8000 radios, behind the panel on the lower front of the STP9100, STP9200,
STP8100, STP8200 and STP8X100 radios and on the rear of the SRH3000 series radios, 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 radio close to the ear only when making, or receiving, duplex calls.
If the screen displays 'Accessory Invalid', 'Accessory Unapproved' or 'Accessory
Unsupported': a non Sepura approved accessory has been attached to the radio
which may compromise the safety ratings. To ensure continued safety, after a brief
period of time the radio switches off.
For STP8X Series radios do not insert or remove the SIM Card or Micro SD card in a
hazardous environment. When closing the SIM / SD plastic cover always use a
jewellers screwdriver type PH00 to undo or tighten the screw. Tighten only to 0.1 Nm,
(pinch tight). This ensures that a seal is maintained.
For STP8X series radios a Sepura approved ATEX/IECEx Antenna must be used.
The radio must not be operated without an antenna fitted. Do not fit, remove or
replace the antenna in a hazardous environment!
To ensure that a seal is maintained between the antenna and the Radio, screw on
antenna until contact is made and follow with a minimum ¼ turn.
