Trunking (NXDN Type-D or dPMR Mode 3)
IDAS trunking can bind multiple channels and effectively share the limited number of channels with a large number of users.
* License key (ISL-UGMTR for NXDN Type-D or ISL-UGMD3 for dPMR Mode 3) required.
Multi-Site Connectivity
Connect two or more repeater sites over the IP network and expand the communication coverage. The multi-site connectivity can be applied to both conventional and trunking modes.
Voting Scan
When used in a multi-site conventional system, the IDAS radio searches an optimal repeater site and automatically selects to the repeater. Useful for users moving over wide area.
Mix Mode Operation (NXDN Conventional and dPMR Mode 1/2)
The IDAS radio can receive both analog and digital mode signals on a channel and can reply either in analog or digital mode according to the received mode. You can partially introduce the IDAS radios, while still using the existing analog radios in a system.
License Key Upgrade
Necessary functions such as trunking capability, channel capacity, AES encryption and other functions can be added with license key options. The IDAS radios can be upgraded and customized to meet your specific needs.
Over-the-Air-Programming (OTAP)
The OTAP function allows you to distribute a radio configuration file over-the-air to update the IDAS radios. Save considerable time with no need to return the radio for reprogramming.
* OTAP manager software (CS-OTPM1) is required.
System Configuration File (SCF) (dPMR Mode 3)
Icom’s dPMR Mode 3 system server can export an SCF which includes common system parameters and the IDAS radio can import the SCF for further programming efficiency.
With a combination with optional separation kits, COMMANDMIC and separation cables, three types of controller configurations are available to suit almost any application or installation that may be required. The intercom function is available between controllers and/or COMMANDMIC.
Detached Controller*
Optional RMK-5 and separation cable
required.
A detached controller head with the separated RF unit is a simple to install in almost any vehicle.
Dual Head Controller*
Optional RMK-7, hand microphone
and separation cables required.
Suitable for double cab vehicles. Install the controller head to front and rear seats respectively.
COMMANDMIC™ and Detached Controller*
Optional RMK-5, COMMANDMIC, HM-218
and separation cables required.)
The COMMANDMIC is handy for installing a work platform on the rear part of the vehicle.
Color LCD and improved User Interface
high-resolution color LCD and new user interface is adopted. The color LCD enhances the visibility both in natural and indoor lighting, with the night mode LCD setting as an alternative for use in night time or low lighting conditions. Functions can be easily set by following easy to understand icons and menu items.
Operation example, Setting Call list select
Over-the-Air-Alias (OAA)
The OAA function sends own alias name with a call to receivers and automatically shows the callers name on the receivers display. It eliminates the need to program the call list to each radio, when a new radio is entered or existing radio is passed to another person.
Hands-Free Operation with Bluetooth® Headset*1
The built-in Bluetooth® module*1 provides remote operation and hands-free communication paired with a third-party headset*2.
*1 Version without Bluetooth also available. Ask your Dealer for details. *2 Available functions depend on paired Bluetooth® devices. Icom does not guarantee all functions and performance of the Bluetooth® headset.
Digital Voice Recording
The IDAS radio can record incoming and outgoing calls, and the user can check recorded communications just in case. When a 32 GB microSD* card is used, a Max. 500 hours of recording is possible.
* A microSD card is required separately.
Multiple Languages
Functions and menu items can be programmed in a language other than English. Cyrillic and Simplified Chinese fonts are supported.
Voice Announcement
The new IDAS radios can notify channel number, zone and channel type with voice announcement. This function is convenient for making radio adjustments without having to look at the radio. Voice announcements can be replaced with customized messages.
- Messages of up to 100 characters
- Status message
- Normal, priority and voting scan
- Internal clock
AES/DES Encryption with Over-the-Air-Rekeying (OTAR)
For digital communication security, the IDAS radio provides basic 4-key DES encryption as standard and upgraded to 64-key DES with the optional UT-134. When used with the optional UT-134 and license key (ISL-AKAES), the AES encryption with the OTAR function are available. The OTAR function* allows updating of encryption keys over the radio channel.
* A microSD card is required separately. The OTAR manager software (CS-OTAR1) is required.
Power OFF Emergency
The Power OFF emergency sends an emergency signal even though the radio appears to be powered OFF.
Radio Kill, Stun and Revive
If a radio is lost or stolen, the radio kill function disables the radio over the air to reduce a security threat. When the radio Stun command is received, all functions will be temporarily locked out until a Revive command is received or the user password is entered.
- Remote monitor (NXDN)/ Ambience listening (dPMR) functions
- Power ON Password
- Tactical group function for temporarily regroup of user groups
Active Noise Canceller
The active noise canceller assists in providing clear audio, while suppressing background noise. The function improves both your transmitted voice and incoming call. The radio user does not need to shout into the microphone even under extremely noisy environments.
Audio Equalizer Effect
The audio equalizer allows you to tailor the audio tone to optimize voice quality in various use environments.
- Audio compander
- Beat cancel
Transparent Data
The IDAS radio can be used as a transparent data modem which transmits various data up to 3600 bps over the radio channel. The NXDN 12.5 kHz digital mode doubles the data speed.
Built-in GPS Receiver
The position data can be sent with voice call or status call and can be used with a third-party AVL (Automatic Vehicle Location) system. The GPS log functions logs user position data at regular intervals.
* An optional GPS antenna UX-241 is required.
USB Port for PC Connection
The IDAS radio can be connected to a PC through a USB port for programming radios and accessing the installed microSD card in mass storage mode.
- Horn, dimmer, external PTT programmable through D-SUB 25-pin connector
- Serial communication interface with Bluetooth® * for wireless connection
- Radio programming through a microSD card
* Version without Bluetooth also available. Ask your Dealer for details.
