Using encryption
You may have access to encryption/scrambling ifthese options are
enabled in your transceiver, and appropriate hardware fitted, if
required.
Switching the secure feature on or off
The 2320 Handset has a hot key that accesses the secure feature
directly. When you switch on secure mode, all
encryptors/scramblers that are activated in your transceiver go
secure. When AES-256 DV and data eucryptors are used at the
same time, they use the same secure key.
If you want secure to remain on at all times, you set this in
Settings > Security > Secure Start State.
NOTE: For detailed information on setting up encryption
and scrambling, please see the Reference
Manual (Codan part number 15-04188-EN Issue
1).
To switch the secure feature on or off:
J Press BlSEC.
Secure is toggled on or off on both the active voice
encryptor/scrambler and the active data eucryptor, if
available.

Entering a PIN for a secure session
Ifyou have CBS-128 voice encryption, you can enter a PIN for a
secure session to provide additional privacy, if permitted. Stations
must use the same PIN in the session for successful secure
communications. The PIN may be entered as you go secure, or
while in a secure session. The PIN is valid for the current secure
session only.
CAUTION: You must re-enter a PIN each time you go secure if
you want to use this additional privacy.

be used to fill keys to these eneryptors.
VCOM is used to provide Cudan virtual COM ports
for programming secure keys via KMS/KFS over the
USB connector on the control point.
Only one application connected via VCOM may be
serviced by the RFU at a time. Refer to Using VCOM
service: on page 117 for further details on this
limitation.
Secure keys can also be programmed from the Codan

Using frequency hopping
You may have access to frequency hopping if the Opt Frequency
Hopping (15-10629) sales option is enabled in the transceiver's
firmware. Frequency hopping may be used in conjunction with
CBS-128 voice encryption, but may not be used in conjunction
with Digital Voice or Data options.
Switching frequency hopping on or off
The 2320 Handset has a hot key that accesses the frequency
hopping feature directly.
To switch frequency hopping on or off:
J Press SlHOF.
Frequency hopping is toggled on or off.

NOTE: The transceiver may be scanning when
frequency hopping is switched on.
NOTE: During frequency hopping, the voice mute in

SEva-Hm TRANSCEIVER OPERATOR GUIDE 99
OPERATING THE TRANSCEIVER
USING FREQUENCY HOPPING
NOTE: When frequency hopping is enabled, the
transceiver must acquire new GPS
synchronisation information after it is
switched on. This may take longer than
acquiring a new GPS position. During this
time, scanning is prevented. Scanning starts
as soon as the GPS receiver is synchronised.
:I Ifthe transceiver is waiting for correct GPS synchronisation
to occur, the screen will display No Sync before it hopping
starts:
NOTE: Ifyou are not permitted to switch off
frequency hopping at user level, the
transceiver emits an error beep.

USING AN EXTERNAL POWER AMPLlFlER
Using an external power amplifier
Overview of the 3061 & 3062 power amplifiers
The 3061 and 3062 power amplifiers provide 500 W PEP and 1000
W PEP outprrt power respectively, and are suitable for voice and
data operation.
NOTE: Codan’s power amplifiers are fully protected against
all load conditions and excessive temperatures, They
are capable ofoperating with a VSWR ofup to 3:1 at
a reduced output power, When excessive VSWR, or
over temperature occurs, the amplifiers switch to
by-pass mode in order to prevent permanent damage.
NOTE: In by-pass mode, the full output power oftlre
attached Sentry-II transceiver is available as a
backup to keep the station operational and on-air.
The external power amplifier is connected to the Sentry-II
transceiver through the Antenna Control cable 08-07408-001. In
order to transmit with the external power amplifier, you need to set
the Tx power setting to PA by using the GlTX PWR key,
Inspecting the status of the power amplifier
The Sentry-II transceiver enables a user to easily inspect the
operating status of a connected power amplifier. It retrieves the
runtime status information from the power amplifier and presents
it to the user afier every transmission.
NOTE: This feature is only available if the control board of
the power amplifier has a firmware version of 2 or
higher. Refer to Checking the power ampIifier’r
control board firmware Vernon on page 112 for
insnuctions about checking the power amplifiers
control board firmware version.
There are two ways to view the status of the connected power
amplifier. You can view it in the status areas, or in the HPA Status

The serial number can be found on the label stuck on the back of
the power amplifier. Ifthe build standard letter (the last
alphabetical letter in the serial number) is B, it means the finnware
