The ASTRO 25 Advanced Messaging Solution allows you to quickly send and receive messages and run database queries directly from your data-enabled Motorola two-way radios. Federal mandate requires Two-Factor Authentication when querying Federal and State databases. With this advance messaging solution you have the ability enable Two-Factor Authentication. With Query and Two-Factor Authentication, you can use a secure system logon to initiate and receive key information on people, vehicles and properties when doing the regular security patrol. You can access to local or external databases such as the National Crime Information Center (NCIC), for "Hot Hits" on priors and warrants. Query and Two-Factor Authentication has Criminal Justice Information Services (CJIS) security compliance for queries. Advanced Features Procedure: ASTRO 25 Advanced Messaging Solution With this Advanced Messaging Solution, ARS functionality splits between two protocols: • ARS for Device Registration • New User Authentication for User Login TMS functionality splits between two protocols: • TMS for messaging • New Service Advertisement for service availabilities 83 English APX_4000_M3.book Page 84 Thursday, March 13, 2014 10:59 AM The radio with Two-Factor capabilities are backward compatible with the existing device registration system and TMS servers. System Setup for ASTRO Advanced Messaging Advanced Features Solution Two-Factor Authentication Two-Factor Authentication is an extension of existing ARS and TMS operation. This feature allows you to authenticate yourself with a username, unit ID, password and passcode. Your user name, unit ID and password all need to be provisioned in PremierOne™. Your user account in PremierOne needs to be linked to an RSA account specifying a token to be used with the Two-Factor passcode. The purpose of this feature is to allow the sender of a text message to address a specific user of the radio, so the message is delivered to the user, not to the radio which may have any user using it at the time. The radios caches the user name, unit ID and or Single Factor password in the codeplug, this allows the radio to automatically log in to use Single Factor authentication upon power up or mode change. The Two-Factor passcode is not stored in the codeplug. You can upgrade the Single Factor session to a TwoFactor session by entering the Two-Factor passcode only. After an interruption (for example mode change, DSR switch over, power loss) the radio is capable of restoring the active session in its current state as long as the session is active in the server . Secondly, this feature supports query authentication requirements so the query service knows which user originated a query. Note: 84 English Power loss and power down are different activities, power down occurs when the user intentionally powers off the radio, power loss is when the battery dies or is removed from the unit. You can still send text messages without logging in as a user. The user login feature only enables the recipient of your message to identify you as the sender by assigning a username to your message. Note: A predefined username that’s set more than the maximum allowed characters is an invalid name.

The Global Positioning System (GPS) This feature uses information from the Global Positioning System (GPS) satellites orbiting the Earth to determine the approximate geographical location of your radio, expressed as latitude and longitude or MGRS format per request from customer. The availability and accuracy of this location information (and the amount of time that it takes to calculate it) varies depending on the environment in which you are using the GPS feature. Direct Kill allows you to make your own radio inoperable. For example, GPS location fixes are very difficult to obtain indoors, in covered locations, between high buildings, or in situations where you have not established a clear broad view of the sky. Procedure: Understanding the GPS Feature 1 Press and hold Top Side Button then press the Orange The GPS technology uses radio signals from earth orbiting satellites, to establish the location coordinates, maximizing your view of clear unobstructed sky is essential for optimum performance.

OR If the receiving radio does not encryption key to decrypt the received encrypted command, your radio display shows Decrypt failed. OR If the receiving radio is powered off or already killed, your radio display shows No Acknowledgement. Where adequate signals from multiple satellites are not available (usually because you cannot establish a view of a wide area of the sky), the GPS feature of your radio will not work. Such situations include but are not limited to: • Underground locations 93 English APX_4000_M3.book Page 94 Thursday, March 13, 2014 10:59 AM • Inside of buildings, trains, or other covered vehicles Enhancing GPS Performance • Under any other metal or concrete roof or structure Sometimes, the GPS feature may be unable to complete a location calculation successfully. You then see a message indicating that your radio cannot connect to enough visible satellites. • Between tall buildings or under dense tree-cover • In temperature extremes outside the operating limits of your radio Even where location information can be calculated in such situations, it may take longer to do so, and your location estimate may not be as accurate. Therefore, in any emergency situation, always report your location to your dispatcher. Advanced Features Note: Even where adequate signals from multiple satellites are available, your GPS feature only provides an approximate location, usually within 20 meters from your actual location, but sometimes further away. Keep in mind that the accuracy of the location information and the time it takes to obtain it varies depending upon circumstances, particularly the ability to receive signals from an adequate number of satellites. Note: 94 English The satellites used by the GPS feature are controlled by the U.S. government and are subject to changes implemented in accordance with the Department of Defense GPS user policy and the Federal Radio Navigation Plan. These changes may affect the performance of the GPS feature on your radio. To maximize the ability of your radio to determine a fix, please note the following guidelines: • For your initial fix, hold the radio in the face position. • Stay in the open. The GPS feature works best where there is nothing between your radio and a large amount of open sky. The Outdoor Location Feature (Using GPS) This feature allows you to determine your current location using a location menu, as well as your current distance and bearing in relation to another location. Radio location may be requested and reported over-the-air. Your radio stores up to a maximum of sixty (60) programmable location coordinates, also known as waypoints. When the memory is full, the next waypoints automatically replaces the oldest waypoints in the radio.
