security key remains at the factory setting, the radio link is open to sabotage by a party with
the same radio model. Each link should have a unique security key. If using the same security
key for every link in the network, the radio could link to any other radio with the same
security key. This is problematic in multi-radio networks.
¶
Note that the security key must be exactly 12 characters. Any printable ASCII character
can be used. The link security key is case sensitive.
Changing the link security key interrupts transmission until the opposite end is
changed to match.
Always change the far-end radio first, and then change the
near-end radio.
•
Reset the admin and user passwords. These passwords should not match. If the admin
password remains at the factory default setting, it provides an opportunity for random
reassignment by a network-connected user.
¶
The new password must be entered twice: once in the main window and again in the
confirmation window. If the passwords do not match and the Update button clicked, the
password is not changed and remains set to the previous password.
•
The License Key is set to all zeros. Enter the license key provided by Exalt to access
extended features or diagnostic capabilities. Click
Update
to accept the changes and enable
the new features. License keys are issued by radio serial number, so ensure that the license
key used was issued for this particular radio.
