NOTE 1: The timeout value is broadcasted in a SYSTEM INFORMATION message or received in a LOCATION UPDATING ACCEPT message. NOTE 2: The MS starts the timer with a random value, uniformly drawn from the range between 12h and 24h. NOTE 3: The timer value is provided by the network in a LOCATION UPDATING REJECT or a CM SERVICE REJECT message or as an "Extended wait time" value by the lower layers, or chosen randomly from a default value range of 15 – 30 minutes. NOTE 4: The MS starts the timer with a random value, uniformly drawn from the range between 15 minutes and 30 minutes for 5GMM cause value #74 as specified in 3GPP TS 24.501 [167] or between 30 minutes and 60 minutes for other cause values. NOTE 5: If the timer is started by an eCall only MS capable of eCall over IMS due to performing intersystem change from S1 mode to Iu or A/Gb mode while timer T3444 (see 3GPP TS 24.301 [120]) is running, the MS starts the timer with a value set to the time left on timer T3444. Otherwise the MS starts the timer with a value set to 12 hours. NOTE 6: If the timer is started by an eCall only MS capable of eCall over IMS due to performing intersystem change from S1 mode to Iu or A/Gb mode while timer T3445 (see 3GPP TS 24.301 [120]) is running, the MS starts the timer with a value set to the time left on timer T3445. Otherwise the MS starts the timer with a value set to 12 hours. |

11.2.1 Timer T3240 and Timer T3241
Timer T3240 is started in the mobile station when:
– the mobile station receives a LOCATION UPDATING ACCEPT message completing a location updating procedure in the cases specified in subclauses 4.4.4.6 and 4.4.4.8;
– the mobile station receives a LOCATION UPDATING REJECT message in the cases specified in subclause 4.4.4.7;
– the mobile station has sent a CM SERVICE ABORT message as specified in subclause 4.5.1.7;
– the mobile station has released or aborted all MM connections in the cases specified in 4.3.2.5, 4.3.5.2, 4.5.1.1, and 4.5.3.1;
– the mobile station receives the paging message from network and enter the MM state 9 (WAIT FOR NETWORK COMMAND).

NOTE 1: The default value of this timer is used if the network does not indicate another value in a GMM signalling procedure. NOTE 2: The default value of this timer is used if neither the MS nor the Network send another value, or if the Network sends this value, in a signalling procedure. NOTE 3: Typically, the procedures are aborted on the fifth expiry of the relevant timer. Exceptions are described in the corresponding procedure description. NOTE 4: The purpose of this timer is to prevent the MS from repeating the SERVICE REQUEST message with service type "data" too early in case the request to setup the radio access bearer is queued by the radio access network. NOTE 5: The cases in which the default value of this timer is used are described in subclause 4.7.2.7. NOTE 6: The value of this timer may be provided by the network to the MS in the ATTACH ACCEPT message and ROUTING AREA UPDATE ACCEPT message. The default value of this timer is identical to the value of timer T3312. NOTE 7: The timer value is provided by the network in an ATTACH REJECT, ROUTING AREA UPDATE REJECT, TRACKING AREA UPDATE REJECT, REGISTRATION REJECT, DE-REGISTRATION REQUEST or SERVICE REJECT message or as a "Extended wait time" value by the lower layers, or chosen randomly from a default value range of 15 – 30 minutes. In this release, receipt of the "Extended wait time" as part of 5GMM from the lower layers is not defined. NOTE 8: The cases in which the default value of this timer is used are described in subclause 4.7.2.2. NOTE 9: The timer value is provided by the network in an ATTACH ACCEPT, ROUTING AREA UPDATE ACCEPT, TRACKING AREA UPDATE ACCEPT or REGISTRATION ACCEPT message. NOTE 10: The value of this timer is UE implementation specific, with a minimum value of 60 seconds. |

NOTE 3: Typically, the procedures are aborted on the fifth expiry of the relevant timer. Exceptions are described in the corresponding procedure description. NOTE 4: The default value of this timer is 4 minutes greater than T3312. If T3346 is larger than T3312 and the SGSN includes timer T3346 in the ROUTING AREA UPDATE REJECT message or the SERVICE REJECT message, the value of the mobile reachable timer and implicit detach timer is set such that the sum of the timer values is greater than T3346. If the MS is attached for emergency bearer services, the value of this timer is set equal to T3312. NOTE 5: The value of this timer is network dependent. If ISR is activated, the default value of this timer is 4 minutes greater than T3323. NOTE 6: If the network includes timer T3324 in the ATTACH ACCEPT message or ROUTING AREA UPDATE ACCEPT message and if the MS is not attached for emergency bearer services and has no PDN connection for emergency bearer services, the value of this timer is equal to the value of timer T3324. NOTE 7: The value of this timer is smaller than the value of timer T3-RESPONSE (see 3GPP TS 29.274 [16D]). NOTE 8: If the SGSN supports EC-GSM-IoT and if the MS is using EC-GSM-IoT, the timer value is calculated as described in subclause 4.7.2.12. NOTE 9: If the SGSN supports EC-GSM-IoT and if the MS is using EC-GSM-IoT, then the timer value shall be calculated by using a multiplier which value is network dependent. |

NOTE 1: The value of this timer or the value of this timer unit can be provided by the network operator when: – a request to activate a PDP context, a request to activate a MBMS context or a request to modify a PDP context is rejected by the network with a certain SM cause; – a request to deactivate a PDP context is received with a certain SM cause value; – a request to establish a PDN connection, a request to allocate bearer resources or a request to modify bearer resources (defined in 3GPP TS 24.301 [120]) is rejected by the network with a certain ESM cause; – a request to deactivate a EPS bearer context is received with a certain ESM cause value; – a request to establish a PDU session or a request to modify a PDU session (defined in 3GPP TS 24.501 [167]) is rejected by the network: 1) with a certain 5GSM cause; or 2) indication that the 5GSM message was not forwarded due to DNN based congestion control; or – a command to release a PDU session is received with a certain 5GSM cause value. If the timer unit is not set to indicate that the timer is deactivated, the value of the timer when included with SM cause, ESM cause, 5GSM cause #26, or due to DNN based congestion control is zero or the timer value is taken randomly from an operator dependent range not greater than 70 hours. If the PDN CONNECTIVITY REJECT was sent together with an ATTACH REJECT message and the ATTACH REJECT message was not integrity protected, MS uses a random value from a default range of 10mins to 30mins. NOTE 2: The default value of 12 minutes applies only for certain SM, ESM and 5GSM cause values as specified in subclauses 6.1.3.1.3.3, 6.1.3.2.2.3, and 6.1.3.3.3.3 in 3GPP TS 24.301 [120] and 3GPP TS 24.501 [167]. NOTE 3: If the MS is using EC-GSM-IoT, the timer value shall be calculated as described in subclause 4.7.2.12. |
NOTE 1: Typically, the procedures are aborted on the fifth expiry of the relevant timer. Exceptions are described in the corresponding procedure description.
NOTE 2: The back-off timer is used to describe a logical model of the required MS behaviour. This model does not imply any specific implementation, e.g. as a timer or timestamp.
NOTE 3: Reference to back-off timer in this section can either refer to use of timer T3396 or to use of a different packet system specific timer within the MS. Whether the MS uses T3396 as a back-off timer or it uses different packet system specific timers as back-off timers is left up to MS implementation.

NOTE 1: The network may already have applied an internal alerting supervision function; e.g. incorporated within call control. If such a function is known to be operating on the call, then timer T301 is not used.
NOTE 2: These time values are set by the network operator.
NOTE 3: When applied to the supplementary service CCBS, the timer T334 can either represent the recall timer T4 or the notification timer T10 (see 3GPP TS 23.093 [88a]). Thus the timer T334 can take two different values. 3GPP TS 23.093 [88a] defines the range of these values.
Annex A (informative):
Example of subaddress information element coding
This annex gives an example of how the Called Party Subaddress IE is encoded to carry subaddress digits that use IA5 characters. This example is also applicable to the Calling Party Subaddress IE.

NOTE 1: The value of this bit has no significance when the type of subaddress is "NSAP".
NOTE 2: These bits are spare.
NOTE 3: The Authority and Format Identifier code 50 (in BCD) indicates that the subaddress consists of IA5 characters (see ISO standard 8348 AD2).
NOTE 4: IA5 character as defined in ITU-T Recommendation T.50 [52]/ISO 646 and then encoded into two semi-octets according to the "preferred binary encoding" defined in X.213 [144]/ISO 8348 AD2. (Each character is converted into a number in the range 32 to 127 using the ISO 646 encoding with zero parity and the parity bit in the most significant position. This number is then reduced by 32 to give a new number in the range 0 to 95. The new number is then treated as a pair of decimal digits with the value of each digit being encoded in a semi-octet.)
NOTE 5: the number of IA5 characters in the subaddress may vary, subject to an upper limit of 19 IA5 characters.
