ENVOY™ TRANSCEIVER REFERENCE MANUAL 237
Respond OTA
The Respond OTA entry sets the way in which the transceiver handles its response
to an OTA command sent through an ALE/CALM or Selcall HF network.
If you want to:
• respond to an OTA command regardless of the privacy mode of the HF network
through which the call was made, select Always respond
• respond in a proprietary Codan-encoded format to an OTA command in an HF
network with the privacy mode set to Group or None, select To Codan
requests
• respond to an OTA command from another Codan HF transceiver in an HF
network with the privacy mode set to Group and a common privacy key, select
To encrypted requests
• disable your response to any OTA command, select Never respond
Default value: To Codan requests
NOTE: The To Codan requests value specifically excludes calls made
using an Open Selcall HF network, and calls made using an
ALE/CALM HF network with a privacy mode of Plain
(MIL-STD-188-141B ALE option).
NOTE: To respond to Get Status calls made in an Open Selcall HF network,
the Respond OTA entry must be set to Always respond.
