User Manual

You can upgrade the Single Factor session to a Two-
Factor session by entering the Two-Factor passcode
only. After an interruption (for example mode change,
DSR switch over, power loss), the radio is capable of
restoring the active session in its current state as long
as the session is active in the server.
Note:
Power loss and power down are different
activities, power down occurs when the user
intentionally powers off the radio, power loss is
when the battery dies or is removed from the
unit.
Two-Factor Authentication
Two-Factor Authentication is an extension of existing
ARS and TMS operation. This feature allows you to
authenticate yourself with a username, unit ID,
password and passcode.
The purpose of this feature is to allow the sender of a
text message to address a specific user of the radio,
so the message is delivered to the user, not to the
radio which may have any user using it at the time.
Secondly, this feature supports query authentication
requirements so the query service knows which user
originated a query.
You can still send text messages without logging in as
a user. The user login feature only enables the
recipient of your message to identify you as the
sender by assigning a username to your message.
Note:
A predefined username that is set more than
the maximum allowed characters is an invalid
name.
