• Operating Time Continuous / Intermittent In general, the terminal transmit and receive time (operating cycle time) is determined by the communication system. On overload, respectively on extensive use beyond the systems specifications at high ambient temperatures, the terminal is protected by its thermal control, which cuts down the RF output power, thus reducing the terminal coverage range.

Terminal Permanent Disable Your MTM800 is provided with a feature that allows your Service Provider to disable it permanently in case it is stolen or lost. When your MTM800 is disabled permanently, it becomes inoperable. After a Permanent Disable the MTM800 can not be re- enabled by your Service Provider.

VOX Control VOX (Voice Operating Transmission) allows the user to transmit voice in a hands-free condition. It detects audio automatically when full duplex private call and telephone call use the fist microphone. This feature is only available if set up by your Service Provider. If it is disabled, transmittion can start upon pressing PTT.

TMO Group Call General A Group Call is an instant communication between you and others in a talkgroup that you select. Participants may join (late entry) and leave an on-going Group Call. A talkgroup is a predefined set of subscribers enabled to participate in and/ or invoke a Group Call and set up by your Service Provider.
Page 152
Pressing PTT on selection screen switches to a new group and starts a call. Each talkgroup may have one associated Announcement Talkgroup (ATG) that it monitors (If set up by your Service Provider). An ATG is a special group which is linked to a number of talkgroups and has the highest priority level, thus enabling broadcast of the call to all these talkgroups.

Transmit Inhibit The Transmit Inhibit (TXI) Mode can be activated by the user before he enters RF sensitive areas, e.g. in hospitals or in potentially explosive areas, where safety can be jeopardized due to terminal transmission radiation. Radiation of the MTM800 is only suppressed if the TXI Mode is activated or the terminal is separated from it’s power supply.
Page 161
Dynamic Group Number Assignment (DGNA) DGNA provides the ability for a network operator or authorised user to dynamically allocate new, or update existing talkgroups to selected terminals over the air interface. Using supplementary services messages (SS- DGNA), the network operator can command the terminal to add talkgroups to the existing talkgroups list, or to delete talkgroups from the list.
Page 162
If this group is de-assigned, and no group changes or power cycling have occurred, the terminal will revert to its previous talkgroup. If a new DGNA is received during scrolling, TG list you will receive a message, indicating that Updated the list of talkgroups was updated.

DMO Group Call General In DMO (Direct Mode Operation) the MTM800 can be used without your Service Provider’s infrastructure. Direct Mode allows communication among terminals in which the same talkgroup is selected. In DMO it is only possible to place Group Calls, Emergency Group Calls and Private Half-duplex Calls.

Phone and PABX Calls General The Phone Mode allows you to call a landline telephone number or a cellular mobile phone number. In this publication we use “phone number” when referring to these numbers. The Private Automatic Branch Exchange (PABX) Mode allows you to call local (office) extension numbers, if this mode has been activated by your Service Provider.

GPS Location Service General Your terminal’s GPS Location feature uses information from Global Positioning System (GPS) satellites orbiting the earth to determine the approximate geographical location of your terminal. The availability and accuracy of this location information (and the amount of time that it takes to calculate it) will vary depending on the environment in which you are using the terminal.
Page 191
• When your GPS antenna is covered (for example, by your hand or other object) or facing the ground • In temperature extremes outside the operating limits of your terminal Even where location information can be calculated in such situations, it may take much longer to do so. Therefore, in any emergency call, always report the location to your dispatcher.
