Getting started 29

About your DMR digital radio

Your DMR digital radio can be programmed for DMR conventional. Analog conventional operation is also available.

You may notice differences between digital and analog calls in terms of:

■ static noise in low signal areas, and

■ radio coverage in marginal reception areas.

Lack of static noise

On digital networks there is no static noise, even in low signal areas. This lack of static is because your digital radio removes the ‘noise’ from the call, so that you hear only clear voice.

Coverage

With digital networks, a call remains clear and then drops off quickly at the border of a coverage area. The reason for this is that a digital call is either received or it isn't. With analog networks, the background noise in a call gets progressively worse when you are in fringe areas or even slightly outside normal coverage areas.

30 Getting started

What you hear on an analog channel

On analog channels, your radio may be programmed so that you hear all conversations on a channel, or your user group may be segregated from other user groups by using special signaling. The special signaling is used to control the muting and unmuting of your radio, so that your radio is muted when other user groups are talking and unmuted for members of your user group.

There are two muting controls that operate in your radio:

■ signaling mute

■ squelch

Signaling mute

The radio’s signaling mute only allows the radio to unmute if the incoming call carries the tones specific to your user group. Your user group may use tones that are either audible, subaudible or both.

Squelch

The radio’s squelch allows the radio to unmute only when the strength of the incoming signal is above a predetermined threshold. This means that only signals of reasonable intelligibility are made audible.

About the chargers

Unless otherwise indicated, the charging advice and instructions in this document apply to all chargers.

The following chargers are available for your Tait radios and batteries:

Part number range Designation

T03-00322-xxxx Desktop charger

Before using the charger

Check the battery label and charger label to see if the charger is compatible with the battery. See also

"About the chargers" on page 54.

Warning Handle the battery safely. Failure to observe the following handling recommendations could result in personal injury and/or equipment damage.

■ Before using a Li-ion battery, read the Li-ion Bat-

tery Safety Information (MPC-00006-xx) included with your battery, and follow the instructions it provides. Incorrect use of a Li-ion battery can cause explosion or fire.

■ Do not short-circuit the battery contacts, neither

intentionally nor accidentally, e.g. by placing the battery with conductive materials such as keys or jewelry inside a pocket or container. Short-circuiting the battery contacts can heat up the conductive material.

■ Do not obstruct the vent hole(s) on the battery.

If the vent on the battery is obstructed the battery may explode, causing personal injury and/or equipment damage. If the vent on the radio is obstructed, audio quality and/or key function may deteriorate and radio seals may be damaged.

54 Charging and caring for batteries

77 °F 25 °C

50 °F 10 °C

Notice Turn the radio off before removing the battery,

and turn it on again after attaching the battery. This ensures that the radio powers down and up correctly. Failing to follow this procedure may require the radio to be turned off then on again to operate correctly.

Charging temperatures

Notice Do not expose a battery to very high or very

low temperatures for extended periods of time. Doing so will shorten the usable life (‘service life’) of the battery.

To achieve the best results when charging your battery:

■ Before you begin to charge your

battery, make sure that the battery temperature is close to the room temperature in which the battery is to be charged.

■ If possible, charge the battery in

temperatures between 50 °F and 77 °F (between 10 °C and 25 °C). This temperature range is the optimal charging range.

Charging only starts when the battery is between 32 °F to 104 °F (0 °C to 40 °C).

When the battery temperature is outside the normal charging range, the orange LED on the charger is lit. Charging will start or resume once the temperature is within normal limits, and no action is required by you.

Leaving the battery on charge

You can leave a battery/radio in the charger once charging is complete. Leaving a battery in the charger will not overcharge or damage it.

Charging and caring for batteries 55

You can remove a battery/radio from the charger at any time without harming the battery, the radio, or the charger. When you return the battery/radio to the charger, charging is automatically resumed.

Receiving calls while charging

Notice For best charging performance, switch off the

radio before placing it in the charger.

You can receive a call while the radio is in the charger, but your radio performance may be degraded. If you do remove the radio from the charger to answer a call, the call will not be disrupted.

Removing the radio from the charger to make or receive a call ends the charging process. Charging safely recommences when the radio is reinserted into the charger.

Low battery warning

Notice Do not allow a radio battery to fully discharge

every time you use it, or you will shorten the service life of the battery.

When the battery is low, your radio warns you in the following ways:

■ The battery symbol on the radio display looks

empty.

■ The status LED on the radio slowly flashes red.

■ A high-pitched beep sounds.

You should recharge or replace the battery as soon as possible.

56 Charging and caring for batteries

There is a fault. Contact your dealer.

If the charger does not behave as expected:

■ Make sure the radio or battery is seated properly

in the charger.

■ Check that the charger is properly plugged into

the originally supplied power supply.

■ Check that the battery and charger contacts are

clean. To clean, wipe the contacts with a dry lintfree cloth to remove any dirt, oil or grease.

58 Charging and caring for batteries

Removing the battery from the charger

■ Lift the battery/radio out of the charger.

Maintaining battery life and performance

With proper care and maintenance you will maintain the performance and life of the battery. It is recommended that you:

■ Use only Tait chargers and batteries.

■ Do not expose a battery to very high or very low

temperatures for extended periods of time. Doing so will shorten the service life of the battery. Very high: above 140 °F (60 °C) Very low: less than –4 °F (–20 °C)

■ Charge the battery at a room temperature of

between 50 °F and 77 °F (between 10 °C and 25 °C). This temperature range is the optimal charging range.

■ Wipe excess moisture and dirt from the radio,

radio contacts and battery contacts before charging the battery.

■ Store batteries properly when not in use.

See "Storing batteries".

Storing batteries

Licensee will not, and will not directly or indirectly allow or enable any third party to: (i) reverse engineer, disassemble, extract components, decompile, reprogram, or otherwise reduce the Software or any portion thereof to a human perceptible form or otherwise attempt to recreate the source code; (ii) modify, adapt, create derivative works of, or merge the Software; (iii) copy, reproduce, distribute, lend, or lease the Software or Documentation to any third party; (iv) grant any sublicense or other rights in the Software or Documentation to any third party; (v) take any action that would cause the Software or Documentation to be placed in the public domain; (vi) remove, or in any way alter or obscure any copyright notice or other notice of Tait or thirdparty licensor’s proprietary rights; (vii) provide, copy, transmit, disclose, divulge or make the Software or Documentation available to, or permit the use of the Software by, any third party or on any machine except as expressly authorized by this Agreement; or (viii) use, or permit the use of, the Software in a manner that would result in the production of a copy of the Software by any means whatsoever other than what is permitted in this Agreement. Licensee may make one copy of the Software to be used solely for archival, back-up, or disaster recovery purposes; provided that Licensee may not operate that copy of the Software at the same time as the original Software is being operated. Licensee may make as many copies of the Documentation as

it may reasonably require for the internal use of the Software.

4.3. Unless otherwise authorized by Tait in writing, Licensee will not, and will not enable or allow any third party to: (i) install a copy of the Software on more than one unit of a Designated Product; or (ii) copy or transfer Software installed on one unit of a Designated Product to any other device. Licensee may temporarily transfer Software installed on a Designated Product to another device if the Designated Product is inoperable or malfunctioning. Temporary transfer of the Software to another device must be discontinued when the original Designated Product is returned to operation and the Software must be removed from the other device.

4.4. Licensee will maintain, during the term of this Agreement and for a period of two years thereafter, accurate records relating to this license grant to verify compliance with this Agreement. Tait, or a third party nominated by Tait, may inspect Licensee’s premises, books and records, upon reasonable prior notice to Licensee, during Licensee’s normal business hours and subject to Licensee's facility and security regulations. Tait is responsible for the payment of all expenses and costs of the inspection, provided that Licensee shall indemnify Tait for all costs (including audit costs and legal costs on a solicitor client basis) if Licensee has breached the terms of this Agreement. Any information obtained by Tait during the course of the inspection will be kept in strict confidence by Tait and used solely for the purpose of verifying Licensee's compliance with the terms of this Agreement.

SECTION 5 OWNERSHIP AND TITLE

Tait, its licensors, and its suppliers retain all of their Intellectual Property

66 Tait Software Licence Agreement

Rights in and to the Software and Documentation, in any form. No rights are granted to Licensee under this Agreement by implication, estoppel or otherwise, except for those rights which are expressly granted to Licensee in this Agreement. All Intellectual Property developed, originated, or prepared by Tait in connection with providing the Software, Designated Products, Documentation, or related services, remains vested exclusively in Tait, and Licensee will not have any shared development or other Intellectual Property Rights.

SECTION 6 LIMITED WARRANTY; DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY

6.1. The commencement date and the term of the Software warranty will be a period of one (1) year from Tait shipment of the Software. If Licensee is not in breach of any obligations under this Agreement, Tait warrants that the unmodified Software, when used properly and in accordance with the Documentation and this Agreement, will be free from a reproducible defect that eliminates the functionality or successful operation of a feature critical to the primary functionality or successful operation of the Software. Whether a defect has occurred will be determined solely by Tait. Tait does not warrant that Licensee’s use of the Software or the Designated Products will be uninterrupted, error-free, completely free of Security Vulnerabilities, or that the Software or the Designated Products will meet Licensee’s particular requirements. Tait makes no representations or warranties with respect to any third-party software included in the Software.

6.2 Tait sole obligation to Licensee, and Licensee’s exclusive remedy under this warranty, is to use reasonable efforts to remedy any

material Software defect covered by this warranty. These efforts will involve either replacing the media or attempting to correct significant, demonstrable program or documentation errors or Security Vulnerabilities. If Tait cannot correct the defect within a reasonable time, then at Tait option, Tait will replace the defective Software with functionally equivalent Software, license to Licensee substitute Software which will accomplish the same objective, or terminate the license and refund Licensee’s paid license fee. If Tait investigation of the perceived defect reveals that no such defect in fact exists, Tait may recover its costs in respect of such investigation from Licensee.

6.3. Tait disclaims any and all other warranties relating to the Software or Documentation other than the express warranties set forth in this Section 6. Warranties in Section 6 are in lieu of all other warranties whether express or implied, oral or written, and including without limitation any and all implied warranties of condition, title, noninfringement, merchantability, or fitness for a particular purpose or use by Licensee (whether Tait knows, has reason to know, has been advised of, or is otherwise aware of any such purpose or use), whether arising by law, by reason of custom or usage of trade, or by course of dealing. In addition, Tait disclaims any warranty to any person other than Licensee with respect to the Software or Documentation.

SECTION 7 TRANSFERS

7.1. Licensee will not transfer the Software or Documentation to any third party without specific prior written consent from Tait. Tait may withhold such consent or at its own discretion make the consent conditional upon the transferee paying applicable license

Tait Software Licence Agreement 67

fees and agreeing to be bound by this Agreement.

7.2. In the case of a value-added reseller or distributor of Tait Designated Products, the consent referred to in Section 7.1 may be contained in a Tait Reseller or Tait Distributor Agreement.

7.3. If the Designated Products are Tait vehicle-mounted mobile products or hand-carried portable radio products and Licensee transfers ownership of the Tait mobile or portable radio products to a third party, Licensee may assign its right to use the Software which is embedded in or furnished for use with the radio products and the related Documentation; provided that Licensee transfers all copies of the Software and Documentation to the transferee.

7.4. For the avoidance of any doubt, Section 7.3 excludes TaitNet Infrastructure, or the products listed at any time under network products at:

http://www.taitradio.com.

7.5. If Licensee, as a contractor or subcontractor (integrator), is purchasing Tait Designated Products and licensing Software not for its own internal use but for end use only by a Customer, the Licensee may transfer such Software, but only if a) Licensee transfers all copies of such Software and the related Documentation to the transferee and b) Licensee has first obtained from its Customer (and, if Licensee is acting as a subcontractor, from the interim transferee(s) and from the ultimate end user sub license) an enforceable sublicense agreement that prohibits any other transfer and that contains restrictions substantially identical to the terms set forth in this Software License Agreement. Except as stated in the foregoing, Licensee and any transferee(s) authorised by this Section may not otherwise transfer or make available any Tait

Software to any third party nor permit any party to do so. Licensee will, on request, make available evidence reasonably satisfactory to Tait demonstrating compliance with all the foregoing.

SECTION 8 TERM AND TERMINATION

8.1. Licensee’s right to use the Software and Documentation will commence when the Designated Products are supplied by Tait to Licensee and will continue for the life of the Designated Products with which or for which the Software and Documentation are supplied, unless Licensee breaches this Agreement, in which case this Agreement and Licensee's right to use the Software and Documentation may be terminated immediately upon notice by Tait.

8.2. Within thirty (30) days after termination of this Agreement, Licensee must certify in writing to Tait that all copies of the Software have been removed or deleted from the Designated Products and that all copies of the Software and Documentation have been returned to Tait or destroyed by Licensee and are no longer in use by Licensee.

8.3. Licensee acknowledges that Tait made a considerable investment of resources in the development, marketing, and distribution of the Software and Documentation and that Licensee's breach of this Agreement will result in irreparable harm to Tait for which monetary damages would be inadequate. If Licensee breaches this Agreement, Tait may terminate this Agreement and be entitled to all available remedies at law or in equity including immediate injunctive relief and repossession of all nonembedded Software and associated Documentation. Licensee shall pay all Tait costs (on an indemnity basis) for

68 Tait Software Licence Agreement

the enforcement of the terms of this Agreement.

SECTION 9 CONFIDENTIALITY

Licensee acknowledges that the Software and Documentation contain proprietary and Confidential Information valuable to Tait and are Tait trade secrets, and Licensee agrees to respect the confidentiality of the information contained in the Software and Documentation.

SECTION 10 LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

10.1. In no circumstances shall Tait be under any liability to Licensee, or any other person whatsoever, whether in Tort (including negligence), Contract (except as expressly provided in this Agreement), Equity, under any Statute, or otherwise at law for any losses or damages whether general, special, exemplary, punitive, direct, indirect, or consequential arising out of or in connection with any use or inability of using the Software.

10.2. Licensee’s sole remedy against Tait will be limited to breach of contract and Tait sole and total liability for any such claim shall be limited at the option of Tait to the repair or replacement of the Software or the refund of the purchase price of the Software.

SECTION 11 GENERAL

11.1. COPYRIGHT NOTICES. The existence of a copyright notice on the Software will not be construed as an admission or presumption of publication of the Software or public disclosure of any trade secrets associated with the Software.

11.2. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS. Licensee acknowledges that the Software may be subject to the laws and regulations of the jurisdiction covering the supply of the Designated Products and will comply with all applicable laws and regulations,

including export laws and regulations, of that country.

11.3. ASSIGNMENTS AND SUBCONTRACTING. Tait may assign its rights or subcontract its obligations under this Agreement, or encumber or sell its rights in any Software, without prior notice to, or consent of, Licensee.

11.4. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be subject to and construed in accordance with New Zealand law and disputes between the parties concerning the provisions hereof shall be determined by the New Zealand Courts of Law. Provided however Tait may at its election bring proceedings for breach of the terms hereof or for the enforcement of any judgment in relation to a breach of the terms hereof in any jurisdiction Tait considers fit for the purpose of ensuring compliance with the terms hereof or obtaining relief for breach of the terms hereof.

11.5. THIRD-PARTY BENEFICIARIES. This Agreement is entered into solely for the benefit of Tait and Licensee. No third party has the right to make any claim or assert any right under this Agreement, and no third party is deemed a beneficiary of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any licensor or supplier of third-party software included in the Software will be a direct and intended third-party beneficiary of this Agreement.

11.6. SURVIVAL. Sections 4, 5, 6.3, 7, 8, 9, 10, and 11 survive the termination of this Agreement.

11.7. ORDER OF PRECEDENCE. In the event of inconsistencies between this Agreement and any other Agreement between the parties, the parties agree that, with respect to the specific subject matter of this Agreement, this Agreement prevails.

11.8. SECURITY. Tait uses reasonable means in the design and writing of its own Software and the

Tait Software Licence Agreement 69

acquisition of third-party Software in order to limit Security Vulnerabilities. While no software can be guaranteed to be free from Security Vulnerabilities, if a Security Vulnerability is discovered, Tait will take the steps specified in Section 6 of this Agreement.

11.9. EXPORT. Licensee will not transfer, directly or indirectly, any Designated Product, Documentation or Software furnished hereunder or the direct product of such Documentation or Software to any country for which New Zealand or any other applicable country requires an export license or other governmental approval without first obtaining such license or approval.

11.10. SEVERABILITY. In the event that any part or parts of this Agreement shall be held illegal or null and void by any court or administrative body of competent jurisdiction, such determination shall not affect the remaining terms which shall remain in full force and effect as if such part or parts held to be illegal or void had not been included in this Agreement. Tait may replace the invalid or unenforceable provision with a valid and enforceable provision that achieves the original intent and economic effect of this Agreement.

11.11. CONSUMER GUARANTEES. Licensee acknowledges that the licenses supplied in terms of this agreement are supplied to Licensee in business, and that the guarantees and other provisions of prevailing consumer protection legislation shall not apply.

11.12. WHOLE AGREEMENT. Licensee acknowledges that it has read this Agreement, understands it and agrees to be bound by its terms and conditions. Licensee also agrees that, subject only to the express terms of any other agreement between Tait and Licensee to the contrary, this is

the complete and exclusive statement of the Agreement between it and Tait in relation to the Software. This Agreement supersedes any proposal or prior agreement, oral or written, and any other communications between Licensee and Tait relating to the Software and the Designated Products.
