Communication through Repeaters

Radios that are out of range and cannot communicate directly with each other in Direct Mode Operation (DMO) can do it through the repeater. The repeater is a radio that repeats all communication on a chosen channel, and as a result increases radios DMO range.
Figure 5: Communication through Repeaters
When the radio connects to a repeater, it plays a tone, displays the Repeater available message, and shows an appropriate icon. When the radio loses connection with the repeater, it plays a tone, displays the Repeater not available message, and the repeater icon is blinking.
3.3.10

Communication through Gateways

Gateway provides connectivity between radios operating in Direct Mode Operation (DMO) and the TETRA network, so that the DMO radios can communicate with the Trunked Mode Operation (TMO) radios.

Gateway and Repeater Synchronization

To communicate using gateways or repeaters, the radio requires synchronization with a gateway or a repeater.
A gateway or a repeater sends presence signals to radios. If a radio receives presence signals, it stays synchronized with the gateway or the repeater which sends the signals. If a radio fails to receive a presence signal it does not immediately lose synchronization. The radio waits for another successful presence for a time defined by your service provider. This function ensures that communications are not dropped due to temporary reception issues.
If a gateway or a repeater is unavailable or the radio is not synchronized with a gateway or a repeater, depending on the setup configured by your service provider, the following scenarios apply:
The radio falls back to Direct Mode Operation (DMO).
After pressing the PTT button, a prompt appears warning that the second press overrides the
• gateway or repeater operation mode.
No direct DMO communications are permitted.
In the second scenario, while the radio receives individual calls and group calls, and replying to individual calls is possible, replying to group calls is not possible.
3.4

Transmit Inhibit Mode

The Transmit Inhibit (TXI) Mode is a mode in which the radio sends no radio transmissions. Activate this mode in RF sensitive areas, for example hospitals, airplanes, where safety can be jeopardized due to transmission radiation.
To activate, select MenuMore. . .NetworksTXI ModeActivate.
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, when you leave the RF sensitive area, you can deactivate the TXI Mode and the radio returns to standard operation.
You can deactivate the mode by selecting MenuMore. . .NetworksTXI 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:

Page 60
MN002033A01-AG (en-US)
Modes
On entering or exiting the TXI mode, when the radio is camped on a cell, it sends a specially designated Short Data Service (SDS) status message. This SDS message indicates to the SwMI that the radio is entering or exiting TXI mode.
Mobility procedures that do not require the radio to send an uplink transmission are performed except for cell reselection.
In TXI 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 TXI 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 TXI mode and attempts to start the emergency call if the radio is in service.
If the radio is turned off in the TXI mode, on turning on, the radio asks whether to exit the TXI mode. If you choose No, the radio turns off.

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 and changing talkgroup is not allowed.
In Trunked Mode Operation (TMO), it is possible to configure the radio to make Emergency Non­Tactical Group Calls without sending attachment. If set, the radio assumes implicit attachment after receiving a temporary address.
In Direct Mode Operation (DMO), the Non-Tactical Emergency proceeds on the same frequency as the previously selected talkgroup. The service provider can designate any Individual TETRA Subscriber Identity (ITSI) address to be used for Emergency Operations and this ITSI can be an Open Group ­broadcast address.
After exiting from Non-Tactical Emergency, the radio goes back to the previously selected talkgroup.
3.5.4

Emergency Individual Calls (Private or MSISDN)

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 MSISDN). During this kind of call, all user indications are unavailable and all other services are rejected. Emergency Operation ends when the Emergency Individual Call is ended.
3.5.5

Emergency SDS Status

The 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 resent when Emergency Alarm or Hot Microphone is configured.
3.5.6

Emergency Hot Microphone

The Hot Microphone allows you to talk without pressing the PTT button during Emergency Operation. 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 whereby the transmission is ongoing for the time the PTT button is held.
Subsequent Emergency button presses during the Emergency Operation restart 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 End soft key or End key ends the Hot Microphone operation.
3.5.7
