7.5 TRI-COLOR LED
Figure 7-3: Tri-Color LED
The Tri-Color LED changes color to indicate radio status and is visible from both the front and top of the
radio (see Figure 7-3). In OpenSky mode only two radio states are reflected by the LED and the status
they represent are:
Green: Receiving
Red: Transmitting
Orange: If the LED is flashing rapidly, the radio is receiving an emergency call. If the LED is
flashing every ½ second, the selected talk group is in the emergency state (although not
transmitting). If the selected talk group is in the emergency state, an asterisk will be
displayed next to the talk group name.
7.6 LOG IN TO THE NETWORK
Login occurs either automatically (auto registration) if the radio has a valid registration or, if enabled and
authorized for encryption (Section 7.27), requires the user to enter a User ID and password.
If encryption is enabled and authorized on the radio, the user will be prompted to “Pls Login” with the *1
login command, a User ID, and password.
1. Press *1 (Login command).
2. Enter the full 10-digit User ID.
3. Press the # key.
4. Enter the password.
• If the radio is configured for alpha-numeric passwords and the password has consecutive
duplicate numbers (“MES33” for example), enter # between the consecutive duplicate numbers
so the radio will not interpret the entry as a letter (“D” in this example).
• If the radio is configured for numeric-only passwords, do not enter # between duplicated
numbers.
5. Press the # key twice.
The User ID may be remembered from the previous log-in. (Refer to Section 7.7 for further details
regarding log-off commands.) The password will be established before the radio is put into operation.
Contact the local OpenSky network administrator for more information.
If necessary, contact radio system administration personnel for log-in assistance and/or
radio-specific log-in instructions.
