Viking Portable 600 Radio Operating Manual 8-7
Secure Communication (Encryption)
8.4.2 Programming By Keyloader
The following are the minimum parameters that need to be programmed in the radio to
perform OTAR. It is not necessary to program a TEK to perform OTAR. If the radio does
not contain a TEK, the KMF initiates a warm start sequence in which a temporary TEK is
transferred to the radio to perform the key transfer.
UKEK - This key normally has SLN (CKR) 61440 and Key ID 62880 (F5A0 hex).
Create a key (either AES or DES type as required) and download it to the radio. AES
UKEKs typically use an SLN of 61442 and a Key ID of 62880 (0xF5A0).
Unit RSI - This is normally initially the same as the P25 Unit ID and is set by
programming.
KMF RSI - This RSI is normally 9,999,999 and should not need to be loaded since it
defaults to this number.
MNP (Message Number Period) - Load the proper message number period into the
radio (typically 1000).
Verify that the above information was properly stored in the radio by viewing it using the
keyloader.
8.5 Radio OTAR Capabilities
The OTAR capabilities of the SEM equipped Viking VP600 radio are as follows.
• Keysets
- Up to three keysets are used and it is assumed all three are always present. Keyset IDs
1 and 2 are for TEKs and only one is active at a time. Keyset ID 255 is for KEKs and
is considered active all the time.
- Each keyset can have up to 128 keys. However, 16 or less are normally used.
8.5.1 OTAR Option Buttons
The following additional option buttons can be programmed with the Viking VP600 to
control OTAR functions. They are also available as Viking Portable radio menu
parameters unless noted otherwise.
Change Keyset - Toggles the active keyset between Keyset 1 and Keyset 2. The new
active keyset is briefly displayed and then normal operation resumes. When the Viking
Portable menu is used, the current active keyset is indicated by an asterisk. To change
to the other keyset, highlight it and press the <F2> button.
