Slot B

(Secure Wide, Encryption Key List)

The CPS retrieves and allows you to view-only the PID (Physical Identification) Hardware (see Secure Operation) key number for the current key (record / row) within the Encryption Key List. This value is affected by the Indexed field's setting for the current row/record, enabled or disabled. When the Indexed field is enabled, it allows for two unique sets of keys (’Keysets’) to exist; one in the Slot A and one in Slot B.

	When the Conventional Key menu-selection is programmed and when a pair of "Indexed" keys is selected for a certain channel, the radio-user is then able to alternate from the encryption key in Keyset A to the encryption key in Keyset B (and back) without changing the radio's channel. This is only possible for Conventional channels.
	When the Conventional or Trunking Keyset menu-selection is programmed, the radio-user is then able to change the Keyset on a radio-wide basis.
	When both the Conventional and the Trunking Keyset selections are programmed, the radio-user can then change the Keyset for the entire radio, regardless of which channel the radio is currently operating.
	Only eight (8) keys can be indexed to Slot B, and only 16 keys total are possible between Slot A and Slot B.

When the radio is model / option capable.
