Managing PIN Protect

PIN Protect allows you to configure PIN code authentication at the next power on.
NOTE: To increase security, set your own PIN code. By default the PIN code are all zeros
(depending on the length of the PIN code). For radios with general PIN authentication, the
PIN length is a fixed 4-digit code. For radios with BSI PIN authentication, the PIN length is
configurable by your service provider up to a maximum of 8-digit code. Customers are strongly
advised to change the default PIN code in order to protect devices from unauthorized access.
