keys

Hi there

I have an XTS5000 with an 8 algorithm module installed, KG1 DES-OFB KG2 DES-XL KG3 DVI-XL KG4 DVP-XL KG5 DVI-SPFL KG6 AES-256 KG7 ADP KG8 AES-GCM

OK I know that our system uses AES and DES, the radio is programmed as conventional ASTRO25 with OTAR Multikey, I have all keys stored in the radio and I can see them in the CPS, but I am having a problem when I turn the radio on it reads right away and gives a tone saying " KEY FAIL and ENC FAIL " and when I turn the knob below ch to secure TX I see a O with a line trough it but immediately I see " NO KEYSET and KEY FAIL " with a beep sound.

OK now I turn my friends radio on in same channel exact same programming and when I turn his radio on I see on the upper screen mid level it reads AES and he's radio is working fine so what the heck and to top it off he only has 3 algorithms DES-OFB DES-XL and AES-256.

The only big difference between both radios is that my radio is an XTS5000 III and his is an XTS5000 II

So in other words mine is a model 3 his is a model 2 but both have the exact same programming.

Any ideas.

Have the keys actually been loaded to the radio with a KVL? CPS has nothing to do with loading key values when it comes to AES or DES.

take it to your authorized radio shop.

Don't you realize that the message "ENC FAIL" means that the radio has detected that your ENCryption module has FAILed?

Ask your crypto officer or your agency's radio shop to load them for you.

Key Fail indicates that you don't have any keys in your radio or you don't have them programmed and selected right in CPS.
It's impossible to see keys in CPS unless it's an ADP key with software encryption. The only thing that you can see in CPS is the key name and key ID.

Mod 2 vs 3 does not matter.

His radio is showing "ᴓӔS" because he has the key loaded and selected in CPS.
