VP-116 voice encryptor option

Overview

NOTE
The VP-116 Voice Privacy Unit is an option for the 2110 Manpack Transceiver that
provides security for voice communications. The VP-116 unit is attached to the 19-way
connector on the front panel of the transceiver using the supplied cable (Codan part
number 08-06421-001). Alternatively, the VP-116 unit may be attached via the interface
adaptor using a 15-way to 55-way cable (Codan part number 08-06213-001) (see Fitting
Instruction: 2110 Manpack Transceiver cradle 15-00140 (c/w interface adaptor)). When
the RS232 Mode is set to VP-116, and the corresponding speed is set to 9600, the
transceiver automatically detects the VP-116 unit during startup and enables the feature
in the firmware.
NOTE
Private Mode is enabled using one of eight pre-stored keys, or a public encryption key
can be initiated between two stations. The pre-stored keys are programmed into the unit
using a key-fill device. The VP-116 is in Clear Mode when there is no encryption
occurring on voice communications.
