3.3 Electromagnetic compatibility

Warning: Burns may be suffered if the bare part of the antenna is touched during radio equipment transmissions.
Long periods of transmission may cause the rear part of the equipment, where the power amplifier radiator is located, to reach a high temperature.
Vehicular Installation The MDT-400 / DT-410 terminal must be supplied with a continuous
nominal 12V voltage in equipment terminals (minimum 10.8V, maximum 15.6 V).
The majority of electronic devices are susceptible to electromagnetic interference if they are not adequately shielded, designed or configured for electromagnetic compatibility.
To avoid these compatibility conflicts, it is necessary to respect current local regulations. This equipment complies with the requirements of the Radio Equipment Directive 2014/53/EU.
It must be taken into account that some mobile digital devices may interfere with hearing aids or other medical devices. If this interference were to occur, please contact your service provider or consult with the manufacturer of the hearing aid or medical device.
Using two TETRA devices with antennas in close proximity may cause mutual interference. If this were to occur, separate the antennas until the interference disappears.

3.4 Other warnings

Vehicles
RF signals may affect motor vehicles’ electronic systems if they are not properly installed or well protected. For more information, check these aspects of your vehicle or the equipment you have added with their manufacturers.
For correct installation of the equipment, please follow the instructions given in the MDT-400 / DT-410 Installation Guide. Avoid using the area above the airbag or the area where it will inflate. Airbags inflate with great force and the equipment could be projected forward and cause serious injuries to vehicle occupants.
Potentially explosive environments
Disconnect the equipment when you are in an area with a potential explosion hazard and comply with all notices and instructions.
Areas with a risk of explosions are often (although not always) indicated. Amongst these are fuel filling areas (Ship decks, petrol stations, installations used for storing and transporting fuel or chemical products) vehicles that use LPG and areas where the air contains particles such as grain, powder or metal particles.
Sparks in these areas can cause explosions or fires, with the resulting risk of injury and even death.

Driver safety
Check the laws and regulations on using mobile phones and radiotelephones in the area where you are to drive and always abide by them. While driving, concentrate all your attention on driving and always have your hands free to manoeuvre the vehicle.
As a precautionary measure, whenever possible, park off the road to make or receive a call.
Programming
The equipment must always be programmed using a version of the programmer that is compatible with the version of firmware.

3.5 Antenna

- Do not use the equipment without an antenna.
- To guarantee safety compliance, always use only antennas validated by PowerTrunk Inc.
- Never use the equipment if the antenna is damaged. If a damaged antenna comes into
contact with the skin, it may cause burns.

3.6 Audio accessories

1. Only use accessories approved by PowerTrunk Inc.
2. Follow the guidelines for fitting audio accessories in the MDT-400 / DT-410 Installation Guide.

3.7 Maintenance

The following recommendations will help you to increase the service life of the equipment and maintain the guarantee coverage:
1. Do not install the equipment in dirty, damp or dusty locations. It is recommended to install it out of direct sunlight and away from sources of heat. High temperatures can reduce the service life of electronic components and deform or melt some plastics.

User Guide
en
2. Any liquid spilt on the equipment can cause serious damage. If this occurs, consult your
authorised Technical Service.
3. Use a soft damp cloth for cleaning the outside surfaces. Never use chemical sprays or
abrasive cleaning products.
4. Do not obstruct or cover the ventilation holes of the DT-410 office unit.
5. Do not store the equipment in cold places. When the device warms up, there may be
condensation inside that could damage the electronic circuits.
6. Protect the equipment from impacts or being dropped. Circuit boards and more sensitive
mechanical components may get broken.
7. If you observe an error indication on the equipment screen that prevents it from working
normally, consult your service provider.
8. Do not open the equipment or try to modify it in any way. There are no user-serviceable parts inside and removing the cover will expose you to electrical shocks and other hazards. Any attempt to open the equipment and manipulate it in any way will render your guarantee void.
9. Do not insert objects into the DT-410 desktop unit casing slots, as they could come into contact with high voltage and cause shocks, fires or unit failure.
10. Do not place heavy objects on the equipment or on its power cable. A damaged cable could cause shocks or fires.
11. Only use the power cable supplied with the equipment. To avoid shocks, the DT-410 must be earthed.
12. Disconnect the equipment antenna when there are storms, to avoid lightening damage.

1. Keep the key pressed to switch the equipment on or off.
2. On starting-up, it will display a welcome message (which can be configured by programming). The software version of the equipment and the user’s name and address will also be displayed for a few seconds.
3. If the equipment requests a PIN, enter the 4-digit code (by default the code is 0000), which will appear on screen as ****, and press OK. It is recommended to change this code for a safer one that you are able to remember.
4. If the user does not enter a correct PIN code after a number of permitted tries (which can be configured, 3 attempts by default), the equipment will be locked until the personal unlocking code - PUK - is entered (a 10-digit code). This code is provided by your Service Provider.
5. When switching off the equipment, it will display a switch-off message and an

4.2 Working modes

1. There are three working modes: network mode (V+D), direct mode (DMO) and DMO-GATE mode. In network mode (V+D), the equipment will be operational when the system has been successfully registered. Then the display will show the symbols (Valid network indicator) and (signal level indicator).
2. During the system registration and network access process, the SVC LED will be lit up continuously in red, and when a valid network is found it will flash and try to register into it. When the register is complete, a characteristic programmable acoustic signal will be heard, the SVC LED will turn green and the screen will
display the message “In service”. If the equipment is unable to access a network, the display will show “No service” and the SVC LED will stay red. Even if the
equipment has not registered, it is possible to access the Main Menu, to select the Direct working Mode, for example, without need for infrastructure.
3. In DMO mode, the SVC LED will be green and the symbol (Direct mode active indicator) will be displayed in the symbol line of the display (Upper line). In this mode, the symbol (valid network indicator) is not displayed.
4. If the equipment has the DMO-GATE option available, this working mode can be selected, which will enable the transfer of group calls from the network to terminals in DMO mode and vice versa.
5. The equipment may be configured to start in any of the available modes or it is possible to change the mode manually through the “Working modes” menu.
