15.2.4 Aegis Private, ProVoice Private, and Voice Guard

Private
Modes
The Aegis and ProVoice private modes allow the radio to transmit encrypted messages and
receive clear or private transmissions. The radio will transmit private if the group/channel is
programmed for private operation and forced operation is pre-programmed.
If the radio was pre-programmed for auto-select, the radio will transmit in the following modes;
If Private mode is enabled, transmissions are always in private mode.
If Private mode is disabled and a private call is received, the Reply transmission will be in
Private mode if the transmission is made during the scan hangtime. If the reply transmission
occurs after the scan hangtime, the transmission will be in Clear mode.
Aegis or ProVoice transmissions cannot be received by any radio set to receive a Voice Guard
®
transmission. Accordingly, Voice Guard or ProVoice transmissions cannot be received by a radio
set to receive an Aegis transmission and neither Aegis nor Voice Guard transmissions can be
received by a radio set to receive ProVoice. Since the M7100
IP
radios are not Voice Guard
compatible, the M7100
IP
cannot receive a Voice Guard transmission, nor can Aegis or ProVoice
transmissions from an M7100
IP
radio be heard by a radio set to receive Voice Guard
transmissions.
When operating on a group or channel programmed for private mode, all transmissions will be
private transmissions and the radio will receive clear and private signals. The PVT keylight
(System Model) or OPTION keylight (Scan Model) turns ON when the private mode is enabled.
If the selected group or channel is programmed for auto-select capability, the mode can be toggled
between private and clear with the PVT button (System Model) or
O button (Scan Model). Radios
programmed for forced private operation do not allow a change of the transmit mode; therefore,
the PVT button (System Model) or
O button (Scan Model) has no effect.
15.2.4.1 Displaying the Currently Used Cryptographic Key Number
