ABOUT YOUR DEVICE
The wireless device described in this guide is approved for use on the TETRA network. Contact your service provider for more information about networks.
When using the features in this device, obey all laws and respect privacy and legitimate rights of others.
16Copyright © 2005 Nokia. All rights reserved.
Warning: To use any features in this device, other than the alarm clock, the device must be switched on. Do not switch the device on when wireless device use may cause interference or danger.
Your device and its enhancements may contain small parts. Keep them out of reach of small children.
Network Services
To use the phone you must have service from a wireless service provider. Many of the features in this device depend on features in the wireless network to function. These Network Services may not be available on all networks or you may have to make specific arrangements with your service provider before you can utilize Network Services. Your service provider may need to give you additional instructions for their use and explain what charges will apply. Some networks may have limitations that affect how you can use Network Services. For instance, some networks may not support all language-dependent characters and services.
Your service provider may have requested that certain features be disabled or not activated in your device. Contact your service provider for more information.
Shared memory
The following features in this device may share memory: contacts, calendar, to-do notes, images in gallery, and note application. Use of one or more of these features may reduce the memory available for the remaining features sharing memory. For example, saving many notes may use all of the available memory. Your device may display a message that the memory is full when you try to use a shared memory feature. In this case, delete some of the information or entries stored in the shared memory features before continuing. Some of the
17Copyright © 2005 Nokia. All rights reserved.
features, such as contacts, may have a certain amount of memory specially allotted to them in addition to the memory shared with other features.
Enhancements, batteries, and chargers
Always switch the device off and disconnect the charger before removing the battery. Check the model number of any charger before use with this device. This device is intended
for use when supplied with power from ACP-8, ACP-9, ACP-12, LCH-9, and LCH-12.
Warning: Use only batteries, chargers, and enhancements approved by Nokia for use with this particular model. The use of any other types may invalidate any approval or warranty, and may be dangerous.
For availability of approved enhancements, please check with your dealer. When you disconnect the power cord of any enhancement, grasp and pull the plug, not the cord.
Important: Enhancements to be used with this device do not meet the same durability or water resistance specifications as the device itself. For example, all the chargers are only to be used in dry conditions. They should never be used when damp or wet.
Interference filters (for RC-2 and RC-4)
To check the type number of your radio, remove the battery. The type number (RC-2, RC-3, or RC-4) is printed on the white label inside your radio. When charging an RC-2 or RC-4 radio with the charger ACP-8, ACP-9 or ACP-12, you need to use two electromagnetic interference filters. Two filters are supplied in the sales package, and they are also available as separate accessories. See
and RC-4)

General information

Active holder

The wearable active holder CRR-1 offers multiple carrying possibilities, and makes the Nokia THR880i radio an integral part of the work outfit.

Access codes

The factory setting for the four-digit PIN code is 1234. When the PIN code request is enabled, the code is requested each time the radio is switched on. See Security
settings on page 106.
The factory setting for the five-digit security code is
12345.
To prevent unauthorised use of your radio, change the codes. Keep the new codes secret and in a safe place separate from your radio. See Security settings on page 106.

Modes of operation

Your radio has two modes of operation: network mode and direct mode. In the network mode, the radio operates using the TETRA network. In the direct mode, the radio operates without the network, so that the radios communicate directly
19Copyright © 2005 Nokia. All rights reserved.
with each other. In the direct mode, only some functions of the radio are available. For more information on the direct mode, see Direct mode on page 65.

Transmission barring

When transmission barring is active, the radio does not send any signals to the network, and only limited network services are available. In the network mode, the radio can only receive group calls and status and text messages addressed to talk groups, providing that the radio is registered to the network. In the direct mode, the radio can receive direct mode calls. When transmission barring is active, the radio cannot re-register to the network, for example, if it is switched off and then on again.
The limited network services in the network mode are only available in the coverage area of the network cell where the radio was last registered. The radio cannot register to other network cells while transmission barring is active, and therefore the area of operation may be limited.
When transmission barring is active in the network mode, the radio cannot send the necessary information to the network about changes in talk groups. When transmission barring is active, you cannot change the selected group. If you make any other changes that affect talk groups, such as change the selected folder, home group, or the scanning priority of a group, you will not be able to receive further communication from the affected groups. After transmission barring has been deactivated, the radio can attempt to negotiate the changes with the network.
20Copyright © 2005 Nokia. All rights reserved.
If you start to make a red key call or an emergency call to an emergency number programmed into your radio when transmission barring is active, the radio automatically deactivates transmission barring and attempts to make the call. See
Red key calls and emergency calls in direct mode on page 70.
Note: If you start to make a red key call or an emergency call when transmission barring is active, transmission barring will be deactivated, and you should consider exiting the area where you wanted transmission to be barred.
To activate or deactivate transmission barring, select
MenuSettingsPhone settingsTransmission barringOn or Off.
Transmission barring should be active before you enter the area where you want transmission to be barred. or is displayed in the standby mode when transmission barring is active. Depending on predefined radio settings, the radio may send a notification message to the network about the activation. is displayed if the message does not need to be sent or message sending failed, and
is displayed if the message has been sent.

Network selection

In addition to your predefined home network, you may be able to select other networks in which your radio can operate (network service), for example, if you are not in the coverage area of your home network. The network can be changed automatically or manually; see Network selection on page 103.
Some services are network dependent, so the availability of services may change when the network is changed. In addition, the selected folder, selected group,
21Copyright © 2005 Nokia. All rights reserved.
home group, or the availability of groups may change when the network is changed.

Using your device in wet and damp conditions

• You can use this device in the rain, but do not submerge it in water.
• If the device or the system connector has been exposed to salt water, wash it
immediately with freshwater to avoid corrosion. The device must be carefully wiped dry.
• Before opening the back cover, dry the device to prevent water from reaching the
interior of the device. The battery is not water resistant.
• Never charge the device when the bottom connector is wet or damp.
• Never use a damp device with enhancements that have an electrical function (such as a
desk stand or car kit).
Note: Make sure the interior of your device and the back cover seals are dry, clean, and free of any foreign objects. Foreign objects may damage the seals against water.

1. Getting started

Install the battery

1. To open the battery cover, press the release button
upwards, away from the bottom connectors. Pressing the release button down makes the opening harder.
2. Slide the battery under the back cover of the radio so
that the end with the contacts enters first.
3. To close the battery cover, first pull it back and
downwards so that the locking catches near the hinge are directed towards their slots, and press them to make sure that they are locked in place (1). Then press the bottom end of the cover down to lock the cover in place (2). Be careful when closing the battery cover. If the cover is not properly closed or, for example, the locking catches or the seals are damaged, the durability of the radio against shocks and water is impaired.
Always switch the device off and disconnect the charger before removing the battery.
23Copyright © 2005 Nokia. All rights reserved.
Install the electromagnetic interference filters (for RC-2
and RC-4)
To check the type number of your radio, remove the battery. The type number (RC­2, RC-3, or RC-4) is printed on the white label inside your radio. When charging an RC-2 or RC-4 radio with the charger ACP-8, ACP-9, or ACP-12, you need to use two electromagnetic interference filters. Two filters are supplied in the sales package, and they are also available as separate accessories.
Install the filters to the charger’s power cord before you connect the charger to the radio or an AC wall outlet.

7. Direct mode

Basics

In the direct mode, the radio operates without the network, so that the radios communicate directly with each other. The direct mode enables one-way calls both in the network coverage area and outside the network coverage area. For details and availability, contact your service provider.
When the direct mode is active, only those radio functions that do not require the use of the network can be used. In the direct mode, you cannot send or receive status or text messages, make or receive network mode calls, use the Web browser or the data connection, or activate fast menu items that require the use of the network. To use radio functions that require the use of the network, activate the network mode, and return to the network coverage area.
Your radio has direct mode channels, and each channel can have up to three groups. To receive a direct mode call that is made to the selected or a scanned group on the selected channel, the user must be in the coverage area of the transmitting radio. The radio coverage areas of different users can vary; even if you can hear a conversation, not all those speaking can necessarily hear you. For communication to be efficient, all the users should be within each other's radio coverage areas.
65Copyright © 2005 Nokia. All rights reserved.

appears on the display.
In the direct mode, pressing and holding makes a call to the first group on the selected channel. Press and hold the duty key when you speak.

Gateway and repeater

Your organisation may have separate direct mode gateway devices or direct mode repeater devices. The devices operate on certain frequencies, and offer an additional service to your radio when the radio is in a coverage area of a compatible device, and operates in the direct mode on the same frequency as the device.
When the radio is on a direct mode channel and group where a compatible direct mode gateway device is available, Gateway is displayed in the standby mode, and during direct mode calls, is displayed. On such a channel and group, direct mode calls are routed through the gateway device. In addition to transmitting calls to the direct mode group, the gateway device may also transmit outgoing calls to a network mode talk group predefined by your service provider, and you may also be able to receive group calls from that group. Your radio does not support any other services that may be offered by gateway devices.
If the connection to the gateway device is lost, Gateway connection lost is displayed, and the radio continues to operate in normal direct mode.
69Copyright © 2005 Nokia. All rights reserved.
When calls are routed through the direct mode gateway device, they are not connected as fast as normal direct mode calls.
When the radio is on a direct mode channel and group where a compatible direct mode repeater device is available, Repeater is displayed in the standby mode, and during direct mode calls, is displayed. On such a channel and group, the coverage area in making and receiving direct mode calls may be extended. The calls are routed through the repeater device to such radios in its coverage area that are in the direct mode on the same channel and group, and that support that type of repeater devices.
If the connection to the repeater device is lost, Repeater connection lost is displayed, and the radio will continue to operate in normal direct mode.
See also Direct mode settings on page 104.

Red key calls and emergency calls in direct mode

If you are not within the network coverage area, you cannot make emergency calls or red key calls to network mode destinations.
If you attempt to make an emergency call to an emergency number in the direct mode, the radio switches to the network mode, attempts to connect to the network, and attempts to make the call.
For each direct mode channel, your organisation can define whether the radio attempts to make red key calls in the direct mode to a predefined direct mode group, or switches to the network mode and attempts to make the call to the destination that is predefined for red key calls in network mode.
70Copyright © 2005 Nokia. All rights reserved.
Press and hold the red function key, and the radio attempts to make a red key call. Press the red function key and then the back key, and the radio attempts to make a silent red key call. However, if the silent call is made to the predefined direct mode group, it changes into an ordinary red key call to the group. See also Red
key calls on page 30.
If a compatible direct mode gateway device is available, and a red key call is made to a predefined direct mode group, the call may also be transmitted to the network mode group that is predefined for the gateway device.
If the radio receives a red key call, or a call made to a destination that is predefined as an emergency number, the radio plays a tone, and Priority call is displayed with the call information.

8. Positioning

GPS receiver

The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a worldwide radio navigation system that includes 24 satellites and their ground stations that monitor the operation of the satellites. Your radio is equipped with an internal GPS receiver.
A GPS terminal, such as the GPS receiver in the Nokia THR880i, receives low­power radio signals from the satellites, and measures the travel time of the signals. From the travel time, the GPS receiver can calculate its location to the accuracy of metres.
You can use the GPS applications in the Positioning menu. When the GPS receiver is on, is displayed. If the indicator blinks, the GPS receiver is calculating its location. When using the GPS receiver, do not touch the antenna of the radio; the antenna of the GPS receiver is located there. Hold the radio upright in your hand at an angle of about 45 degrees, with a clear view of the sky.
The GPS receiver in the Nokia THR880i takes its power from the radio battery. Note that using the GPS receiver may drain the battery faster.
72Copyright © 2005 Nokia. All rights reserved.
Note: The Global Positioning System
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is operated by the United States government, which is solely responsible for accuracy and maintenance of the system.
The accuracy of location data can be affected by adjustments to GPS satellites made by the United States government and is subject to change with the United States Department of Defense civil GPS policy and the Federal Radionavigation Plan. Accuracy can also be affected by poor satellite geometry.
Availability and quality of GPS signals may be affected by buildings and natural obstacles as well as weather conditions. The GPS receiver should only be used outdoors to allow reception of GPS signals.
Therefore, GPS should not be used for precise location measurement and you should never rely solely on location data from the GPS receiver.
Positioning application

Select MenuPositionin g.

Note that establishing a GPS connection may take from a couple of seconds to several minutes. The availability and quality of GPS signals may be affected by buildings, natural obstacles, and weather conditions. When the GPS receiver is on,
is displayed. If the indicator blinks, the GPS receiver is calculating its location.

Position info

To activate the GPS receiver and to view available position information, select
MenuPositioningPosition info. Use and to scroll between the
displays.
73Copyright © 2005 Nokia. All rights reserved.
The first display contains the current geographical coordinates in WGS-84 format (a geographical coordinate system) and an estimate of the accuracy of the location. The correct coordinates are shown only if the GPS receiver receives the needed positioning information from the GPS satellites.
The second display contains the approximate altitude from the mean sea level. If the device is moving, the approximate speed and the approximate direction of the movement in degrees from true north are also shown.
The third display contains the approximate time of the measurement in Universal Time (UTC) format and the number of satellites the radio is connected to (maximum 12).
The text on top of the display informs you of the status of the GPS reveiver. If No
GPS fix is displayed, the GPS receiver is calculating its location or not receiving
information from the satellites, and the correct coordinates cannot be displayed. The coordinates of the previous calculated position remain on the display until new position information is received from the satellites.
If 2-D positioning is displayed, the coordinates are displayed, but the receiver cannot calculate the altitude, because it is only receiving information from three satellites. If 3-D positioning is displayed, the receiver is receiving information from a mimimun of four satellites, and the coordinates and the altitude can be calculated.
If you want to save the displayed position information as a waypoint (landmark), select Save. Enter a name, and if desired, a short comment for the waypoint.
74Copyright © 2005 Nokia. All rights reserved.

Select GPS always on to have the GPS receiver active all the time. Using the GPS receiver may drain the battery faster.
Allow position info sending
The GPS receiver may receive requests for position information, or for network information that the service provider can use to calculate the approximate position of the radio (network service). Position information sending is only possible in the network mode and when transmission barring is not activated.
Note that this feature and its accuracy are dependent on the network, satellite systems (when GPS is used), and the organisation receiving the information. This feature may not function in all areas or at all times.
To set how the radio responds to position requests, select Allow position info
sending, and one of the following:
Yes—The radio attempts to send position information whenever position
requests are received from numbers authorised by your organisation.
No—The radio does not send position information when position requests are
received.
76Copyright © 2005 Nokia. All rights reserved.
Priority calls only—The radio attempts to send position information only when
position requests from authorised numbers are received during a call to an emergency number programmed into your radio, or during a red key call or a silent red key call to a network mode destination. If the GPS receiver does not get the needed information from the satellites to determine the current coordinates before the call ends, the coordinates that were last calculated by the receiver are sent instead.
Note that position information from the GPS receiver may be sent to the network during these calls if it has been predefined by your organisation, regardless of which setting is selected.
NMEA interface
If the radio is connected to a compatible PC with the DLR-3P cable, you can send position information to compatible map applications on the PC. The protocol NMEA-0183 version 3.0 is used for data transfer. To activate or deactivate the GPS receiver and the sending of position information to the compatible PC, select
