Encrypted Integrated Data (EID)

The following are some of the latest creations designed to enhance the security, quality and efficiency of your radios.

Dynamic System Resilience (DSR)

DSR ensures your radio system is seamlessly switched to a backup master site dynamically in case of system failure. DSR also provides additional indication e.g. failure detection, fault recovery, and redundancy within the system to address to you who is in need. Mechanisms related to the Integrated Voice and Data (IV & D) or data centric are all supported by DSR.

CrossTalk Prevention

This feature prevents crosstalk scenario from happening, especially when a wideband antenna is used. This feature allows the adjustment of the Trident Transmitting SSI clock rate in your radio to be varied from the Receiving Frequency. This subsequently reduced the possibilities of radio frequency interfering spurs and prevents the issues of crosstalk.

Getting Started

EID provides security encryption and authentication of IV & D data bearer service communication between your radio and the Customer Enterprise Network.

SecureNet

SecureNet allows you to perform secured communications on an Analog or Motorola Data Communication (MDC) channel. The MDC OTAR feature will allow you to perform OTAR activities on an MDC channel.

Troubleshooting

Scenario Solution

LED indicator on the radio is not functioning during transmit and receive or any other operation

No LED feedback upon turning on your radio via on/ off switch

Cannot connect with the Bluetooth accessory

Note: No LED indication occurs when your radio receives a

clear (non-secured) transmission in trunking Mode.

The radio might be preprogrammed in lights off mode in the current channel. For covert operation, the LEDs can be preprogrammed to turn off with specific zones or channels. It is hence recommended to add key words like Lights off or Lights on to the zone or channel Voice Announcements.

First, check your battery by docking it into the charger. If the battery is good, it might be the reason that the radio was turned off at a preprogrammed zone/channel which the LED lights would not be shown for covert operation. Change to a zone/ channel that LED lights are enabled. Meanwhile, ensure you connect an audio accessory to hear the audio alerts or transmission.

Check the accessory battery and ensure the battery is still good. Also check the accessory device is in the pairing mode.

Caring for Your Radio

C a u t i o n

Vent Port

C a u t i o n

• The radio casting has a

vent port that allows for pressure equalization in the radio. Never poke this vent with any objects, such as needles, tweezers, or screwdrivers. This could create leak paths into the radio and the radio’s submergibility will be lost.

Helpful Tips

• The radio is designed to be submerged to a

maximum depth of 1 meter, with a maximum submersion time of 30 minutes. Exceeding either maximum limit may result in damage to the radio.

• If the radio battery contact area has been

submerged in water, dry and clean the radio battery contacts before attaching a battery to the radio. Otherwise, the water could short-circuit the radio.

• If the radio has been submerged in water, shake

the radio well so that any water that may be trapped inside the speaker grille and microphone port can be removed. Otherwise, the water will decrease the audio quality of the radio.

• Do not disassemble the radio. This could

damage radio seals and result in leak paths into the radio. Any radio maintenance should be performed only by a qualified radio technician.
