Adding a secure key
NOTE: Codan’s KMS may be used to generate secure keys and to fill the CES
and AES encryptors.
NOTE: VCOM is used to provide virtual COM ports for programming secure
keys via KMS/KFS over the USB connector on the control point.
If you are permitted to add a secure key for a CES-128 or AES-256 encryptor via the
user interface of the control point, the transceiver automatically selects the next empty
secure index into which you can enter a secure key. You cannot select the secure key
index.
NOTE: AES-256 digital voice and data encryptors use the same secure key.
