Secure Hardware  Failure
Use an ohmmeter to electrically verify the following secure related 
signals on the controller board and the Vdd levels:
  Signal
Probe Point Level
  VDD_IOP   R2509 1.875V
  VDD_IOM  R2511 1.875V
  VDDC   R2512 1.875V
Use an oscilloscope to verify activity 
during power-up on Keypad board: 
 Signal
Probe Point
SSI_RED_RX_MACE P2001_6
SSI_MACE_DIN P2001_4
Replace Keypad
board.

Synopsis
This failure relates only to secure 
equipped radios and indicates a power 
up self test failure for the secure 
circuitry. More specifically this failure 
indicates a failure in communications 
between the DSP and the secure 
circuitry.  The secure circuitry is not 
considered to be field repairable so 
troubleshooting is limited to verifying a 
problem with the secure circuitry and 
replacing the controller if required.
Use an oscilloscope to verify clocks on Keypad board:
  Signal
Probe Point Frequency
  MACE CLOCK P2001_44 4 MHz 
  OPT_SSI_CLK P2001_18 1.5 MHz
  OPT_SSI_FSYNC P2001_30 8 KHz 
4 MHz 
1.5 MHz
8 KHz 
Are signals correct?
No
Check SSI clock 
signals from CPLD 
and repair circuitry
Yes
Make sure the radio is fully assembled. These
errors will occur if Main or Keypad boards are 
not properly assembled. Also note a battery
removal and reattachment is needed after a 
“Secure HW Upgrade” to clear errors.
Use an oscilloscope to verify clocks on Main board: 
  Signal
Probe Point Frequency
  MACE CLOCK R6113
  SSI_OPT_CLK R6107
  OPT_SSI_SYNC R2513
Are signals correct?
Examine connection 
between Main and 
Keypad J2301 & P2001
