Figure 23 Administration Settings page
Most entries on this page are self-explanatory. The following lists unique or important parameters.
•
Fill in the date and time fields as soon as practical. Events are captured with time/date stamps,
which is valuable information for troubleshooting.
•
Set the Link Security Key to something other than the factory default setting (12 characters, all
zeros) at each end. The link security key must match at both sides of the link. If the 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 alphanumeric character can be
used. The link security key is case sensitive.
Note:
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
.
