System Setup for ASTRO Advanced Messaging Solution Note 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. 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. DRAFT Advanced Features 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. 106 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. English 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.

Advanced Features Using Direct Kill to Kill Your Own Radio GPS Operation 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. DRAFT 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 customers. 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. 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 Inside of buildings, trains, or other covered vehicles Under any other metal or concrete roof or structure Between tall buildings or under dense tree-cover In temperature extremes outside the operating limits of your radio 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. • • Once GPS is enabled, the radio displays the GPS icon on the screen. The dispatcher can always 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, 121 English in any emergency situation, always report your location to your dispatcher. To maximize the ability of your radio to determine a fix, take note of the following guidelines: 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 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 farther away. • 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.
