Universal Flex Assembly
The universal flex assembly contains the volume/on/off switch, frequency selector switch, push-to-
talk (PTT) switch, monitor button, several function-selectable switches, universal connector, speaker,
and microphone.
2.1.4
Display Module
The display module is a 96 pixels x 64 pixels bit-mapped, liquid-crystal display (LCD) with associated
circuitry. This module uses chip-on-film technology and is not field repairable.
2.1.5
Keypad Module
The keypad module is either a 6- x 3-button (Model III) or a 2- x 3-button (Model II) module with
backlighting.
2.1.6
Encryption Module
The encryption module (secure models only) connects directly to the VOCON board and interfaces
directly with the vocoder digital circuitry. It contains an independent microcontroller and two custom
ICs to perform digital, numerical, encryption algorithms.
The encryption modules are designed to digitally encrypt and decrypt voice and ASTRO data in
ASTRO XTS 5000 radios. This section covers the following secure modules:
