Deregistration from the OTAR system
➥
Push [CH Up] or [CH Down], or rotate
[CH Up/Down], to exit the channel in which the
OTAR function is enabled. After exiting the
channel, the transceiver automatically attempts
deregistration from the OTAR system by
transmitting a KMM ‘Deregistration’ command
P25 Over The Air Rekeying (OTAR) function
allows the Key Management Facility (KMF) to
change the encryption keys in a transceiver
remotely, (“over the air”) to protect the secure
communications. Moreover, several OTAR
commands are used to perform the following
operations. See also
4-7 OTAR
for this function.
From KMF to transceiver:
to KMF.
Rekey request function
Normally, the encryption keys are managed and
securely changed by KMF over the air without
receiving a Rekey request. But the transceiver
can control KMF remotely by sending a Rekey
request to perform the rekey operation.
• Change Active Keyset
• Change Group RSI
• Radio Check
- The transceiver automatically responds to any
command.

When the rekey operation is successful,
• Deregistration from the OTAR system
• Rekeying
- When the channel in which the OTAR function is
enabled is selected, the transceiver automatically
attempts registration to the OTAR system by
transmitting a Key Management Message (KMM)
to KMF. Various other commands are exchanged
“REQUEST REKE” disappears.
• If the rekey operation fails, “FAILED” appears.
Active Keyset selection
This function allows you to select the Active Keyset
that is stored in the transceiver.
The keyset structures a group of keys. By changing
the keyset, the group of keys will be automatically
between KMF and a transceiver, other than above.
Registration to the OTAR system
