The
CONSOLE PORT
provides a connection to a PC acting as a Console Terminal. The terminal
functions are discussed in Section 3.2.2 and in subsequent chapters.

Secure communications requires the use of a PCMCIA based Crypto Card. Three versions are presently
in use, the KOV-14, KOV-15 and SOV-16. The most widely distributed Crypto Card at this time is the
KOV-14 FORTEZZA PLUS KRYPTON™ ENHANCED CRYPTOCARD. The Crypto Card is inserted into

The Crypto Card is removed by pressing the

message to remove the card is presented in the STE Virtual Alphanumeric Display.
