1. Click on F1 Button (“Menu”) and then select “ Start
new operational performance test (OPT)”.
2. Select which media to perform the OPT from.
3. The Communication Audio test will start. Click on

It is possible to skip the communication Audio test.
The BCP will now prompt the activation of the
communication audio channel within 60 seconds. At
this point, activate the VHF.
When the system detects audio on the channel, it will
start to record 15 seconds of audio.
After recording 15 seconds of audio, the system will
analyse the audio and if audio is present pass the test.
Click “OK” to continue.
If the test has failed (no audio present in the
recording), it is possible to restart the test by clicking
the F2 button (Retry).
The same test is performed for the secondary VHF channel if connected to the VDR.
