6-15-2 SYSCODE CALCULATION

The system codewor d is used when gener ating contr ol channel signalling as a system
identifier . When testing Radio Units, the cor r ect SYSCO DE allows the RU under test to
go into ser vice.
The SYSCO DE is actually constr ucted fr om a number of differ ent fields. The codewor d
is 15 bits long with the most significant bit ( B15) = 0.

O PID
B14 specifies whether the networ k is ter med a National Networ k ( 1) or a Regional
Networ k ( 0) . Depending on the setting of the Networ k type, the length of the O PID field
is either 7 bits or 2 bits and the NDD field 4 or 9 bits. The LAB field is normally set to
001 to allow any categor y r adio unit to access the system.
The NDD field generally contains a site identifier number for a multiple site network.
The easiest way to constr uct the SYSCO DE is to conver t each field into binar y with all
leading zer oes to complete the field width, then cr eate a 16 bit hexadecimal number
conver ting each four bits into a hexadecimal char acter 0- 9, A- F.
Example: A Radio Unit is pr ogr ammed for a r egional networ k, O PID=50, and has access
author ization for site ar ea 1.
O PID
= 94 decimal = 1011110 binar y
NDD
= 1 decimal

In many instances where the Radio Unit has unlimited access, authorization NDD may
be set to any value.
