5. Reboot the unit and click “Confirm” to prevent Rollback to the unencrypted state.
6. Note that the link can then only be re-established if the remote terminal is also set with the same
Encryption Key (this means that it is necessary to make this change on the remote end of the link
FIRST).
Notes:
1. If one terminal is reset to Factory Default, then its Licence Keys will be lost and AES encryption will
be automatically de-activated, and this means that it will not be able to re-establish a link if the
remote end is still running with AES encryption activated. In this case, it will be necessary to either
de-activate the AES encryption on the remote end, or else to re-apply the AES Licence Key and re-
activate the encryption on the end which had been reset to Factory Default. In this case it will be
necessary to use the same AES 256 Encryption Key on both ends of the link.
2. The maximum capacity of the link when AES encryption is activated is 700Mbps full-duplex in the
current software release. The AMOD settings on the radio page will not be displayed when AES
encryption is activated.
3. A new encryption key will only be active after a reboot, and in this case always remember to click
“Confirm” on each unit after reboot, to prevent automatic rollback to the previous state.
