Selectable ADP Key Data

These ADP (Advanced Digital Privacy) Keys are not Cloned to the target radio when the source codeplug is read from a radio. When a codeplug containing ADP Keys is read from a radio, the ADP Keys are not loaded into the CPS, which causes these ADP keys to appear in all asterisks (*). In this situation, the key data will not be cloned to a target radio. If sending ADP Key Data to the target radio is desired, the CPS-user must re-enter the appropriate ADP Keys into the CPS prior to initiating the Clone Radio process. Source codeplug ADP Key Data will overwrite the target radio’s ADP Key Data when present.

However, when a codeplug file containing ADP Keys is opened into the CPS, the ADP Keys are loaded into the CPS, and are therefore able to be cloned to the target radio. Source codeplug ADP Key Data will overwrite the target radio’s ADP Key Data when present.

When this field shows ten (10) asterisks "**********", there is no pattern defined.

To enter no Key Data pattern, enter ten (10) asterisks "**********".

For security purposes, when a codeplug is read from a radio, "**********" is displayed in this field, regardless of the data pattern that might be saved in the radio.

Whenever the Selectable ADP Key ID is modified, the Key Data pattern for the same row/record becomes invalid and therefore must be redefined.

Up to 64 encryption keys are possible.

There is no mechanism to erase an ADP key from the radio via CPS. A field with  "**********" simply implies it will not over-write whatever key might actually be in the radio.
