Writing Configuration Data Using Wireless Communication
(OTAP)
OTAP (Over-The-Air Programming) is the function to write configuration data to the transceiver using wireless
communications. This function enables configuration data for the transceiver to be updated by remotely controlling from the
base station.
OTAP can be used in a communication system which supports NEXEDGE or P25 digital communication (an NXDN
Conventional system, an NXDN Trunking system, or a P25 Conventional system).
To use this function, the PC application software, OTAP Manager (KPG-180AP) is required to manage configuration data
of KPG-D1/ D1N and transmit the configuration data to each subscriber unit via the base station transceiver.

The transceiver for which OTAP is enabled can be used in a system where OTAP is incorporated. The subscriber unit can
write the received configuration data into the unit and enable the configuration data. The base station transceiver can send
the configuration data to the subscriber unit according to the request from OTAP Manager.
Refer to OTAP MANAGER (KPG-180AP) Basic Operations supplied with KPG-180AP for the details of this function.
