TECHNICAL NOTE TN-1137-SR
TM9155, TP9155, TP9160 Subscriber Unit
Firmware Upgrade to v2.04.00.0002
22nd December 2005
Applicability

1.

This Technical Note applies to the firmware utilised in the TM9155 APCO
P25 mobile, TP9155 and TP9160 APCO P25 hand portable radios –
henceforth referred to as APCO subscriber units.

Introduction
The APCO subscriber unit firmware v2.04.00.0002 has been released to
manufacturing to replace the previous firmware (v1.04.00.0001) being
installed in APCO subscriber units.

What does this
work with?

2.

This firmware is compatible with the TM9100/TP9100 Programming
Application v1.07.0.0002 or later and Calibration Application
V1.02.00.0005 or later.

Changes

What New Features
Have Been Added?

DES (Digital Encryption Standard) Encryption has been added in this
release. This form of encryption uses a 64 bit/8 octet (16 Hex digit)) “key
variable” that is loaded into the radio via a KVL3000+ Keyloader in
conjunction with a Tait adaptor (TPA-SV-020). Once loaded into the radio
it is not possible to read the key variable(s) back out.
There are two areas in the XPA that deals with Encryption. The first is the
Encryption page.
