Positive Mode Control/Secure

The Positive Mode Control feature is used to control a secure-equipped base station. In this modified
tone-control scheme, there are two function tones present in any tone sequence that causes the radio to
transmit. Immediately following the high level guard tone, there is a coded/clear function tone that
instructs the radio equipment whether or not voice audio is to be encrypted. The normal transmit function
tone follows the coded/clear function tone.

Up to four Console Interface Units (CIUs) can be connected to and controlled by the ICP9000 Navigator
MCU through the I/O pins of the RS-232 & I/O. These pins are assigned automatically to channels that
have secure operation enabled via the CARD Suite Software.

The assignment is made in the order of the channels programmed: That is, the first secure channel from
channel 1 to 12 will have I/O pins 7 and 12 assigned, the second secure channel will have I/O pins 8 and
15 assigned to it. This continues until all four pairs of CIU I/O connections have been used. Any other
secure channels are not assigned I/O pins. Refer to Table 14 for pinout information in connecting the
CIU to the MCU. Refer to Table 14 for pinout information in connecting the CIU to the MCU.
