SPECIAL OPERATOR TASKS (SlP/ASIP)

In addition to the eight special operator tasks, there are two Special

GENERAL

SIP/ASIP Operator Tasks. These special SlP/ASlP related tasks use the

SIP/ASIP RT as an RCU; and send data from one computer to another

over a SINCGARS secure, frequency hopping net using RS-232

enhanced data feature.

Use SIP/ASIP RT as an RCU (Special Operator Task 9)

5.6a.

For use of a SIP RT as either a manpack RCU or a manpack remoted radio, Battery Box

CY-8523A/B is required. Battery Box CY-8523C cannot be used for manpack remote

operations, ASIP RT requires a two-wire adapter.

* * The Control, Receiver-Transmitter (RCU), C-11561, may continue to be used for remote

control of a SINCGARS SIP radio when used for voice and SINCGARS data modes. It cannot be

used for enhanced data modes.

*** RCU(RT) COMSEC must be set to PT to talk on orderwire.
