SlP/ASIP VAA

Memory

The SlP/ASlP VAA contains a small microprocessor which allows data in the

form of routing tables to be stored.

Internet

When used in conjunction with FBCB2 hardware and software, the SlP/ASlP

VAA supports internet communications among SINCGARS FH nets and

between SINCGARS and EPLRS nets. Employment of the internet feature

requires that the SlP/ASlP RT be set to the Packet data mode.

FRONT PANEL

The front panel of the RCU is quite similar to that of the RT. There is one

additional control, an ON-OFF speaker switch. The only other difference is

that the REM position of the RT FCTN switch becomes ICM (intercom), used

for talking with the radio operator over the connecting field wire. RCU

operator may call RT operator by setting FCTN to ICM and pressing CALL

and PTT at the same time
