"CIK" - Provides a choice of "Itcik' (meaning initiate CIK) or "Ldcik" (meaning load CIK). This option is used

any time a new CIK has to be entered into the ANCD. (NOTE: When an ANCD has been cleared of data by

use of the "ZERO" button, a new CIK needs to be entered using the "Itcik' feature. This procedure requires

you to press ENTR 32 times. The ANCD display advises you to press ENTR until instructed to stop. At that

time, a new CIK has been entered into the ANCD).

"Ckdat" - (meaning check data) - This feature enables the user to perform data tests on all drives and

COMSEC slots.

"Revno" - (meaning revision number) - Provides operating systems software revision numbers, a matter of

interest primarily to the manufacturer.

"BIT" - This option provides for use of built-in test capabilities. It should be used by communications maintainers,

but not by SINCGARS/ANCD operators because its use clears all data from the ANCD database, including the

CIK (software).

The ANCD uses menu-driven programs, enabling the operator to quickly and easily select actions desired. There

are two ways to make such selections; both are easy to learn and use. One way is to use the arrow buttons to

move the cursor to the item desired and then pressing ENTR. The other way is with the "LOCK LETTER" key

activated, press the first capitalized letter in the option.
