For
STP8X
radios Sepura approved ATEX/IECEx Accessories
must
be used.
The radio
must not
be operated unless an accessory is attached or the RuSC Cover
is screwed in place.
Accessories and the RuSC cover
must not
be fitted, or removed or replaced while in
a hazardous environment.
When attaching the RuSC cover and accessories, to ensure that a seal is maintained,
tighten the screw to 0.15 Nm and 0.25Nm respectively.
When an accessory is connected to any STP radio, the accessory is tested to check that it is
an approved Sepura accessory. If a non-Sepura accessory is detected one of the following
warning messages is displayed:
Accessory Invalid
Accessory Unsupported
Accessory Unapproved
STP9000 and STP8000 Series
To minimise RF exposure please ensure that if using an Advanced RSM with Antenna
that it is held a minimum distance of 25mm from the mouth during use.
If “Accessory Invalid” is displayed there is an accessory
connected to the radio but the radio
cannot determine what it is. It is likely that the accessory
‟s software or configuration is
corrupted. Continued safe operation cannot be guaranteed. It is recommended that the
accessory is disconnected as soon as possible.
If “Accessory Unsupported” is displayed t
he installed radio software may not be able to fully
support the connected accessory. If the accessory is a Sepura approved accessory that is
new to the market a radio software upgrade may solve the issue. If the accessory is an
unapproved 3rd party accessory the radio may be able to provide partial accessory support
but safe operation cannot be guaranteed.
If “Accessory Unapproved” is displayed t
he connected accessory is not a Sepura approved
accessory. The accessory may still work with the radio but safe operation cannot be
guaranteed.
