Security

Sometimes when you are working, you may need to secure your radio from unauthorised use. The
easiest way to secure your radio is to lock the keypad when your radio is not in use. Your radio may
be customised with other security features such as PIN entry and a remote user network log on (to
authenticate network users).

PIN entry

You will need to enter the radio's 4 digit PIN at power on. Your radio may be customised to allow you
to change your PIN (see Change PIN below).
if you incorrectly enter the PIN 3 times, the radio will lock. You will then need the 8 digit Master Reset
PIN (or PUK) to unlock the radio, see Unlocking the radio after incorrect PIN entry below.
To unlock your radio:
1. Enter your PIN.
2. Press OK.
If you make a mistake you can use the Left navigation key to delete the last digit entered.

Change PIN

You can change your radio's PIN required at power on.
1. Select Menu > Options > Settings > Change PIN.
2. Enter your current PIN, then press OK.
3. At the prompt ' Change PIN?' press OK.
4. Enter your new PIN twice to confirm.
A large tick displays to confirm that the PIN is changed.

Unlocking the radio after incorrect PIN entry

If you enter the PIN incorrectly 3 times, the radio will become locked. To unlock your radio you will
need the radio's Master Reset PIN (or PUK) that consists of 8 digits.
The default PIN is 00000000 but this can be changed by your Communications or Security Manager.
