IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.............................................................. 129

FOR YOUR SAFETY

For your safety, follow these instructions. Exceptions may be made only by trained personnel (police, firefighters and others) who determine that special use is appropriate. Further detailed information is given in this manual.

Do not switch the radio on when wireless phone use is prohibited or when it may cause interference or danger.

ROAD SAFETY COMES FIRST

Don't use a mobile radio while driving.

INTERFERENCE

All wireless phones may get interference, which could affect performance.

SWITCH OFF IN HOSPITALS

Follow any regulations or rules. Switch the radio off near medical equipment.

SWITCH OFF WHEN REFUELLING

Don't use the radio at a refuelling point. Don't use near fuel or chemicals.

SWITCH OFF NEAR BLASTING

Don't use the radio where blasting is in progress. Observe restrictions, and follow any regulations or rules.

USE SENSIBLY

Use only in the normal position. Don't touch the antenna unnecessarily.

QUALIFIED SERVICE

Only qualified personnel may install or repair radio equipment.

ACCESSORIES

Use only approved accessories. Do not connect incompatible products.

WATER-RESISTANCE

Your radio is not water-resistant. Keep it dry.

BACKUP COPIES

Remember to make backup copies of all important data.

CONNECTING TO OTHER DEVICES

When connecting to any other device, read its user's guide for detailed safety instructions. Do not connect incompatible products.

FUSE REPLACEMENT

Replace a blown fuse with a fuse with of the same type and size. Never use a fuse with a higher rating!

EMERGENCY CALLS

Ensure the radio is switched on and in service. Press as many times as needed (e.g. to exit a call, to exit a menu, etc.) to clear the display. Enter the emergency number, then press . Give your location. Do not end the call until told to do so.

■ Network services

The radio described in this guide is approved for use on the TETRA network. A number of features included in this guide are called Network Services. These are special

services that you arrange through your wireless service provider. Before you can take

advantage of any of these Network Services, you must subscribe to them through your service provider and obtain instructions for their use from your service provider.

Note: Some networks may not support all language-dependent characters and/or services.

■ About accessories

Warning: Use only accessories approved by the manufacturer for use with this

particular radio model. The use of any other types may invalidate any approval or warranty applying to the radio, and may be dangerous.

For availability of approved accessories, please check with your dealer. When you disconnect the power cord of any accessory, grasp and pull the plug, not

the cord.

General information

■ Access codes

PIN code (4 digits)

The factory setting for the PIN code is 1234. To prevent unauthorised use of your radio, change the code in the Change of access codes submenu of the Settings menu. Keep the new code secret and in a safe place separate from your radio.

When the PIN code request is enabled (see Security settings on page 107), the code is requested each time the radio is switched on.

Security code (5 digits)

The factory setting for the security code is 12345. To prevent unauthorised use of your radio, change the code in the Change of access codes submenu of the

Settings menu, see Security settings on page 107. Keep the new code secret and in

a safe place separate from your radio.

■ Conventions used in this guide

The display texts next to the selection keys and are indicated in a bold typeface, for example, Menu. The other display texts which appear on the radio’s display are indicated in italics, for example, Calling. All key presses are

represented by the graphic of the corresponding key, for example, by and

■ Modes of operation

Your radio has two modes of operation: network mode and direct mode. In network mode, the radio operates via the TETRA network. In direct mode, the radio operates without the network, so the radios are communicating directly with each other. In direct mode only some of the radio’s functions are available. See Direct

mode on page 66 for more information about direct mode.

■ Shared memory

The following features in this radio may share memory: contacts, calendar, and to-do notes. Using any such features may reduce the memory available for any features sharing memory. This is especially true with heavy use of any of the features (although some of the features may have a certain amount of memory specially allotted to them in addition to the amount of memory shared with other features). For example, saving many names or notes may take all of the shared memory and your radio may display a message that the memory is full. In this case, delete some of the information or entries stored in the shared memory features before continuing.

■ 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 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 direct mode, the radio can receive direct mode calls. Note that when transmission barring is active, the radio cannot re-register to the network, for example, if it is switched off and then on again.

Note: The limited network services in 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 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, for example, 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.

If you start to make a red key call or an emergency call to the emergency number programmed into your radio when transmission barring is active, the radio will automatically deactivate transmission barring and attempt to make the call. See also Red key calls and emergency calls in direct mode on page 71.

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.

See Transmission barring on page 100 for how to activate or deactivate transmission barring. Note that transmission barring should be active before you enter the area where you want transmission to be barred. The indicator or

is displayed in 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. The indicator is displayed if the message does not need to be sent or message sending failed, and the indicator is displayed if the message has been sent.

■ Network selection

Next 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 104.

Note: Some services are network-dependent, so there may be changes in the availability of services when the network is changed. In addition, for example the selected folder, selected group, home group, or availability of groups may change when the network is changed.

■ Special features

The Nokia TMR880 radio offers some special features. One of the back panel connectors of the radio has programmable input/output pins, for example, for connecting external devices such as a status panel. It is also possible to connect enhancements to the system cable (SCR-14), for example, an external GPS (Global Positioning System) device. In addition to the standard AT commands, the Nokia TMR880 radio supports an extended AT command set for controlling the radio.

For details and availability, contact your service provider.

■ Control unit

A separate Nokia Control Unit (CUR-2) can be connected to the Nokia TMR880 radio. For example, it can be used as a second control unit or installed in places where space is limited. The Nokia Control Unit has connectors for a speaker microphone and a helmet enhancement (for example, for use with motorcycles). With the helmet enhancement, it is possible to mute all other audio enhancements that are connected to the Nokia Control Unit and the Nokia TMR880 radio.

For details and availability, contact your dealer.

1. Getting started

■ Switching the radio on and off

1. Press and hold to switch the radio on and off.

2. If the radio asks for a PIN code, key in the four-digit PIN code (displayed as ****) and press OK.

3. If the radio asks for a security code, key in the five-digit security code (displayed as *****) and press OK.

For more information on the codes, see Access codes on page 20.

Warning: Do not switch the radio on when wireless phone use is prohibited or when it may cause interference or danger.

Caution: In order to comply with RF exposure requirements for mobile transmitting devices, a minimum distance of 20 cm must be maintained between the antenna and all persons.

Note: The radio will not work unless sufficient power is supplied through a power source, e.g., a vehicle’s battery.

■ Ignition sense

If the radio is installed in a vehicle, the ignition sense feature can be installed to prevent the radio from draining the vehicle’s battery. The ignition sense enables the radio to be automatically switched on or off approximately 20 seconds after

the ignition key of the vehicle has been turned on or off. However, you can switch the radio on or off at any time with the key.

When the ignition key is turned off, the text Phone will power off, if not used is displayed. If you press any number key, the radio will not be switched off.

■ Locking the keys (Keyguard)

Your radio has two levels of keyguard.

• Keypad locks the keypad keys except for the volume keys, , and the red function key .. To activate this keyguard, press Menu and then press within 1.5 seconds. The note Keypad locked is briefly displayed.

• All keys locks all the keys of the radio except the volume keys, the red function key and the back key. To activate this keyguard, press Menu and then press and hold within 1.5 seconds. The note All keys are locked is briefly displayed.

• To unlock either keyguard, press Unlock and then within 1.5 seconds.

You can answer a phone call and respond to a group call or an express call when either keyguard is on. When the call ends, the keys are automatically locked.
