For your safety 7For your safetyBefore using your radio, please read the following important safety and compliance information.Safety warnings used in this guideWithin this guide, the following conventions are used to alert you to important safety information:Warning: There is a potential risk of death or serious injury.Caution: There is the risk of minor or moderate injury to people.Caution: “Caution” is used without the safety alert symbol when there is a risk of equipment damage or malfunction.Radio frequency exposure informationFor your own safety and to ensure you comply with the Federal Communication Commission’s (FCC) radio frequency (RF) exposure guidelines, please read the following information before using this radio.Using this radioYou should use this radio only for work-related purposes (it is not authorized for any other use) and if you are fully aware of, and can exercise control over, your exposure to RF energy. To prevent exceeding FCC RF exposure limits, you must control the amount and duration of RF that you and other people are exposed to.
8For your safetyIt is also important that you:■Do not remove the RF exposure label from the radio.■Ensure this RF exposure information accompanies the radio when it is transferred to other users.■Do not use the radio if you do not adhere to the guidelines on controlling your exposure to RF.Controlling your exposure to RF energyThis radio emits RF energy or radio waves primarily when calls are made. RF is a form of electromagnetic energy (as is sunlight), and there are recommended levels of maximum RF exposure. To control your exposure to RF and comply with the maximum exposure limits for occupational/controlled environments, follow these guidelines:■Do not talk (transmit) on the radio more than the rated transmit duty cycle. This is important because the radio radiates more energy when it is transmitting than when it is receiving.■While you are transmitting (talking or sending data) on the radio, you must ensure that there is always a distance of 0.9m (35 inches) between people and the antenna. This is the minimum safe distance.■Use the radio only with Tait-approved antennas and attachments, and make only authorized modifications to the antenna otherwise you could damage the radio and violate FCC regulations.Website: For more information on what RF energy is and how to control your exposure to it, go to www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety/rf-faqs.html.
For your safety 9Compliance with RF energy exposure standardsThis two-way radio complies with these RF energy exposure standards and guidelines:■United States Federal Communications Commission, Code of Federal Regulations; 47 CFR 1.1307, 1.1310 and 2.1091■American National Standards Institute (ANSI) / Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) C95. 1-1992■Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) C95.1-1999 Edition.This radio complies with the IEEE (FCC) and ICNIRP exposure limits for occupational/controlled RF exposure environments at operating duty factors of up to 50% talk to 50% listen.Radio frequency emissions limits in the USAPart 15 of the FCC Rules imposes RF emission limits on electronic equipment to prevent interference to reception of broadcast services.This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the condition that this device does not cause harmful interference.Note: Changes or modifications to this device that are not expressly approved by Tait Electronics Limited may make its use illegal.Unapproved modifications or changes to radioThe radio is designed to satisfy the applicable compliance regulations. Do not make modifications or changes to the radio that are not expressly approved by Tait Electronics Limited. Failure to do so could invalidate compliance requirements and void the user’s authority to operate the radio.

Basic operation 35About GPS informationYour radio may be connected to a GPS (global positioning system) receiver, and programmed (see the note below) so you can view GPS information such as latitude and longitude, true course, speed, and coordinated universal time. Your radio may also be programmed to display UTM (universal transverse mercator) information such as the UTM zone, and northing and easting coordinates.Note: GPS information on the radio display is not a standard feature. Before being programmed, it must be purchased and enabled on the radio via the Software Feature Enabler. Contact Tait Electronics Limited for more information.About GPS status informationWhile viewing GPS information, GPS status information appears at the top right of the display.The status information you see on a hand-held control head may differ to that on a standard control head. In the following section, status information for a hand-held control head is shown in brackets [ ].The following GPS status information may appear in the display:■Tracking [trk]: the GPS receiver is communicating with asatellite.■Lost cnx [no cnx]: the radio has lost serial communications with the GPS receiver.■Stored [no fix]: GPS receiver is having trouble connecting to a satellite and the radio is displaying stored information that may not be current.GPS info trackingLat: S 25°28'30"Long: E 119°38'36"Exitstatus information

Basic operation 37About the lone worker featureThe ‘lone worker’ emergency feature is designed for people who work alone in potentially hazardous environments. Your radio may be programmed so that lone worker monitoring is active as soon as your radio is turned on, or you may be able to turn lone worker on and off.While lone worker is active, the radio expects a response from you at regular intervals, and usually prompts you with a warning beep. Typically, this happens every hour.If you are unable to respond to this prompt, an audible warning may be given shortly before the radio sends an emergency call or enters emergency mode, to warn you and to prevent false activation.For a detailed explanation of emergency mode, see “Making an emergency call” on page 56 (conventional operation) and “Making an emergency call” on page 69 (trunked operation).Note: If the radio is operating in silent mode, then any audible indicators for lone worker are turned off.
38 Basic operationLone worker operationLone worker monitoring is made up of three stages. The way the radio behaves and the duration of each stage depends on how the radio is programmed. See “Lone worker messages and indicators” on page 38.■Stage 1: Lone worker is activated and the user activity timer begins to count down. This timer is typically set for 60 minutes, but may be programmed for as long as 5hours.■Stage 2: The user activity time expires and the user response timer begins to count down. This timer is typically set for 10 seconds, but may be programmed for as long as 1.5 minutes.■Stage 3: The user response time expires and the radio sends an emergency call or enters emergency mode. Lone worker messages and indicatorsThe following table explains the messages and indicators that may be associated with the lone worker feature. Note: Your radio may be programmed so that there is no visible or audible indication of lone worker operation.

40 Basic operationActivating lone workerTo turn the lone worker feature on and off: ■Press the assigned function key.The message Loneworker activated (or Loneworker deactivated) appears in the display.Note: Your radio may be programmed so that lone worker is active as soon as your radio is turned on.Responding to a lone worker promptWhen the lone worker user activity timer expires, the message Loneworker awaiting appears on the display and you hear a low-pitched beep.Alternatively, there may not be any visible or audible indication that the user activity timer has expired.■Press any key, turn the volume control, briefly press the on/off key, or press the PTT key. This resets the lone worker user activity timer.If you are unable to respond, the user response timer begins to count down. You now have less than two minutes to respond before the radio automatically sends an emergency call or enters emergency mode.■Press any key, turn the volume control, briefly press the on/off key, or press the PTT key. This resets the user activity timer.If you are unable to respond, the radio sends an emergency call or enters emergency mode.Pressing a function key to reset the user activity or user response timerWhen a function key is used to reset either the user activity or user response timer, the programmed action for the function key is also activated. For example, if you press the lone worker function key to reset either timer, then lone worker is turned off.
