Encrypted Radio Programming and Service Manual

For other encryption modules, check with a Tait Service Centre, or
www.taitworld.com/
.
Modules listed can be fitted to either TOP or T2000 radios, with the exception of the Midian
TVS-2 modules (see above). However, the modules will require some customisation to suit the
radio type. Details are included in the module manufacturer’s documentation, but differences
include:
removal of snap-off sections to fit a module into a TOP radio. Note that these snap-offs
include screw holes necessary to fit the module into a T2000 radio,
so should not be
removed for T2000 application.
some modules require module-specific link settings on the Encryption Upgrade Flex PCB,
depending upon the radio type and the system configuration. These settings are described
in the module manufacturer’s documentation.

Radio Hardware Compatibility
Tait Orca Portable Radios
The TOP Encryption Upgrade Flex PCBs described in this manual are suitable for use in most
TOP 5000 radios (5010, 5020, 5035, 5040). The flexes can be retrofitted to most radio models,
but this should first be verified by providing the serial numbers to a Tait Service Centre for
confirmation.
T2000 Radios
The T2000 Encryption Upgrade Flex PCBs described in this manual are suitable for radios which
contain the Enhanced HC11 Control PCB (IPN 220-01344-XX). This can be verified by
providing the serial numbers to a Tait Service Centre for confirmation.
2.5
Radio Firmware and Software Compatibility
Tait Orca Portable Radios
Encrypted TOP radios require specific encryption-capable radio firmware. This is fitted during
manufacture of encryptable radios, but will need to be programmed separately where an
encyption upgrade kit is used. Contact the Tait Strategic Sales Team for confirmation of
encryption firmware support.
T2000 Radios
Encryption-capable T2000 radios require no firmware change to support encryption function.
