MOD-10-1164 sepura  TETRA Terminals Product Guide October 28th 2011 Page 16 of 36 Issue 5 © Sepura plc 2011   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.   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 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.  Space for user identity label
MOD-10-1164 sepura  TETRA Terminals Product Guide October 28th 2011 Page 17 of 36 Issue 5 © Sepura plc 2011   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 also displayed in red on the STP8000 and STP8100 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.  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 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.  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.

Each console unit can be a Standard Console, Colour 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 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.  AUDIO ACCESSORIES The Mobile/Gateway radio supports up to 6 audio accessories, which can be any combination selected from:   Standard Console, Colour Console, Applications Interface Unit: o  none to two hands-free kits o  none to four standard handsets o  none to four standard fist microphones   In addition to the above, the Colour Console also supports: Programming Lead Connection PTT Jack Socket Microphone Jack Socket Accessory Connection (not used if Jack Sockets are in use) Accessory Connection Connection to Transceiver

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.

MOD-10-1164 sepura  TETRA Terminals Product Guide October 28th 2011 Page 32 of 36 Issue 5 © Sepura plc 2011   HEALTH AND SAFETY  USER INFORMATION CARE OF YOUR RADIO 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 radio 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 radios. Make sure that the battery radios 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 radios.  Any  accessory  used  that  is  not  supplied  or  approved  by  Sepura  plc  could  cause 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.   TRANSMIT INHIBIT  The radio 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  radio does  not  transmit  under  any  circumstances  in  either TMO  or  DMO, except  when  using  the  emergency  key  if  customised  to  do  so.  The  radio  remains  on  the selected group and in some circumstances can still receive conversations from this talkgroup. The radio can automatically send a status message to the customised destination when the radio enters Transmit Inhibit, and again when it leaves Transmit Inhibit.
MOD-10-1164 sepura  TETRA Terminals Product Guide October 28th 2011 Page 33 of 36 Issue 5 © Sepura plc 2011   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  radio  without  the  antenna attached unless the radio is being used with an external antenna (e.g. on RSM).  ACOUSTIC SHOCK 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  STP8000  radios, behind the panel on the lower front of the STP8100 and STP8200 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.  WATER INGRESS   This section applies to the STP8000, STP8100 and STP8200 radios only   If the radio 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 radio but may reduce the volume of the loudspeaker. If this occurs it may be easily remedied by holding the radio firmly and shaking it once or twice to remove the water.
