4.2 BEFORE FIRST USE
Make sure the XL Mobile has:
Personality and radio programmed using RPM2
Encryption keys loaded if using encrypted channels
Personality activated
4.3 POWER ON AND SET VOLUME
The power switch and volume control are the same knob on the radio (see Figure 4-1). Turn the
Power/Volume Knob clockwise to power on radio and increase the volume.
A minimum volume level can be programmed into the radio to prevent missed calls due to
a low volume setting.
4.4 VIDA
®
ID
VIDA ID provides the capability to provision the VIDA User Personality configured in the UAS to radios
operating on P25 networks via a User Login. Each personality can contain up to 16 profiles and each profile
can contain up to 16 Talk Groups.
Refer to Section 9.1 for a list of potential login and provisioning error messages and what to do if they
occur.
4.4.1 User Login
User Login enables multiple radio users to pick a radio from a fleet pool and enter unique credentials to log
into the P25 system. Upon successful login, the Alias associated with the radio user is displayed at various
end points in the P25 system.
A user can login on up to three (3) devices simultaneously. For example, if the “same user” is logged into
a portable radio and mobile radio, the P25 system can differentiate the subscribers while transparently
displaying the alias to other users.
Login can be initiated by a menu option, a button programmed for user login, or by selecting a P25 system
that requires login. To login manually:
1. From the UTILITY radio menu, select USER LOGIN, or press the button programmed for User
Login.
2. Enter the System ID, User ID, and Password, as required.
3. Select Login.
4.4.2 Provisioning
If provisioning is enabled via radio programming and the user has successfully logged in, the VIDA User
Personality configured in the UAS is provisioned to the radio. When no VIDA Provisioned database is
available, the radio will operate using the RPM2-programmed personality.
