SAFETY GUIDELINES

SAFETY GUIDELINES

WARNING - Do not crush, disassemble, reverse polarity or install

incorrectly, incinerate, or mutilate the lithium-ion battery. Do not
expose to fire or temperatures above 160 °F (71 °C). The battery
can vent, rupture, or explode, releasing toxic material which may
cause injury or death to personnel. In case material is released or
spilled, evacuate and allow vapors to dissipate. Increase ventilation
and do not inhale vapors. Notify safety personnel of release or spills.
WARNING - Use only battery chargers approved by Harris, and
never attempt to modify the battery or charger. Doing so may result
in damage to the battery, the radio, or cause personal injury to the
user.

WARNING - RF shock could occur from coming into contact with the
antenna while radio is transmitting.

WARNING - The radio could be transmitting without activating

the keyline via Push-To-Talk (PTT). This is possible in data
communications and Internet Protocol (IP) connections.

WARNING - Do not dispose of lithium-ion batteries in uncontrolled

trash.

WARNING - A damaged lithium-ion battery that is exposed to water

could cause a fire or explosion, causing personal injury. Batteries
with cracked or damaged cases should be replaced immediately.
WARNING - Extended transmit times and/or insufficient air
circulation may cause the surface temperature of the radio to
become hot enough to possibly cause a burn. Allow the radio to cool
before handling.

WARNING - To avoid damage to hearing, ensure that the handset

volume is at a comfortable level before using a handset.

SAFETY GUIDELINES

WARNING - When operating the radio as part of a recommended

vehicular system, ensure that proper caution and procedures are
exercised in order to avoid loss of control of the vehicle. Failure to
comply could result in personal injury or death.
WARNING - Do not extend antennas or drive vehicles under low
hanging power lines. Contact with power lines could result in
personal injury or death.
WARNING - Operating RF transmitting devices such as radios and
cellular phones in or around fuel, weapons, or ordinance could
cause serious injury or death.
Make sure guidelines specified in NAVSEA OP 3565 for Hazard of
Electromagnetic Radiation to Ordnance (HERO), Hazard of
Electromagnetic Radiation to Fuel (HERF), and Hazard of
Electromagnetic Radiation to Personnel (HERP) are followed while
operating this radio.
The RF system must be turned off within a Safe Separation
Distance (SSD) of the HERO Unsafe or Unreliable Ordnance,
HERO Susceptible Ordnance, and HERO Safe Ordnance.
When in the presence of equipment being refueled, the system must
be turned off within an SSD of fueling operations involving motor
vehicle gasoline (MOGAS), aviation gasoline (AVGAS), or JP-8 fuel.
No SSD needs to be maintained for fueling operations involving JP-
5 or diesel fuel.
CAUTION - ACID CONTAMINATES LITHIUM-ION BATTERIES.
Every effort must be made to keep lithium-ion batteries isolated from
lead-acid batteries because lead-acid batteries contain sulfuric acid.
Do not use the same tools and materials such as screwdrivers,
wrenches, hydrometers, and gloves for both types of batteries. Any
trace of acid or acid fumes will permanently damage lithium-ion
batteries on contact.

INTRODUCTION

1 Data Interface
• Simultaneous Voice/Data - Simultaneous voice and data
communications can take place on a fixed frequency net with
CHANNEL ACCESS set to Multiple Access Collision
Avoidance Generation 2 (MACA2) and CIRCUIT TYPE set to
SIMULTANEOUS. Refer to [PGM] > NET MANAGER, p100 for
circuit type descriptions.
• Direct Connect Universal Serial Bus (USB) Interface - Any
supported USB device such as a camera can be connected in
the same manner as connecting to a USB port on a computer.
• High Data Rate - Capable of 64 kbps IP data in a 25 or 75 kHz
channel or optional 192 kbps IP data in a 75 kHz channel. The
IP data format can allow data transmissions to be interrupted by
voice communications without data loss in a non-simultaneous
voice and data IP net. However, data could be lost if you key
the radio too long.
• Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) data connections can be
configured for serial communications.
• The data interface accommodates USB/Ethernet or RS-232
unbalanced interfaces. For messaging, a Tac Chat home
screen provides an integrated messaging center.
IP Networking
• Direct Internet Protocol (IP) Network Connection - Can be
attached to network with a Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol (DHCP) server without configuration of the radio and
can be accessed via any network resource such as a computer
that has the radio drivers and communications programmed.
• Enhanced IP-based retransmission - Allows multiple
retransmission hops and multiple retransmission radios
connected via Ethernet/Local Area Network (LAN).
• Supports IPv4 Ethernet LAN.

16
 RF-7800V-HH
INTRODUCTION

• Remote Network Driver Interface Specification (RNDIS) for 1

Ethernet over USB connectivity and wireless IP data forwarding.
• Multicast IP Support - Allows configured User Datagram
Protocol (UDP) multicast application data to be forwarded from
one of the radio’s wired IP interfaces to its wireless interface (or
vice versa). The three wired interfaces supported on the radio
are Ethernet, RNDIS, and PPP.
NOTE
The multicast feature does not support Internet Group
Management Protocol (IGMP) or Protocol
Independent Multicast (PIM) routing protocols. As a
result, routers between a radio’s wired interface and a
multicast client or source device are not supported.
Situational Awareness (SA)
• Equipped with internal Global Positioning System (GPS)
receiver to support position display information, SA reporting, or
obtaining position reports from other radios. GPS operational
modes are internal, external, IP, or none. GPS is also used for
time synchronization on Quicklook 3, and Quicklook Wide.
• Keyhole Markup Language (KML) File Server format to display
geographic data in a graphical Earth browser. Provides position
reporting (Google Earth and other KML-based SA application
integration). KML-formatted position data is accessible via the
radio’s web server or via UDP/IP packets.
Security
• Embedded Harris Citadel® II encryption. Selectable Citadel 128
bit/256 bit or Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) 128 bit/256
bit encryption security for both Over the Air (OTA) voice and
data transmissions. Customer Algorithm Modification (CAM) is
an available option.
• Encryption is interoperable with Falcon II radios using Citadel I,
Citadel II, AES-128, or AES-256. The radio provides storage of

17
 RF-7800V-HH
INTRODUCTION

1 25 128-bit or 256-bit Communications Security (COMSEC) keys

and one 128-bit CAM variable.
Vehicular Amplifier Adapter (VAA)
• External VAA support.

ADVANCED FEATURES
The radio is available with either the Standard (SW001) or Advanced
(SW002) firmware feature set. This manual covers features for SW001
and the following Advanced SW002 features (not included with SW001).
• MACA2 192 kbps with 75 kHz channel bandwidth
• Simultaneous Voice and Data (SVD) on 75 kHz channel
• NATO Friendly Force Information (NFFI) GPS support
• Quicklook Wide waveform
• Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) and RF-6010 Base Station
support. Allows sending IP data over Ethernet and making
phone calls to and from an RF-6010 based system.
• PTT through Wireless IP retransmit and Advanced IP Repeater
• Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
Waveforms provided with SW002 that are not described in this manual
are described in a separate operation guide.

NFFI Position Reporting

North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) Friendly Force Information
(NFFI) style position reporting (integrated with NFFI-based SA
applications) is supported. NFFI Position Reporting is compliant with
STANAG 5527 NFFI-IP2 and NATO Battle Management System
applications.

USB DATA
The radio provides a Universal Serial Bus (USB) 2.0 Full Speed
compatible interface. This interface supports USB drive capabilities as
well as RNDIS for Ethernet over USB connectivity. Ethernet over USB
18
 RF-7800V-HH
INTRODUCTION

allows the joining device to act as the RNDIS Host and wireless IP data 1
is forwarded down the RNDIS connection to the host. This forwarding
eliminates the need for configuring separate Ethernet/wireless IP
addresses.
RNDIS usage with wireless IP forwarding is intended to be a modern
alternative to existing PPP connections with wireless bridging enabled.

BASIC SETUP

INITIAL POWER-UP
Power up the radio as follows.
2 a. Move the rotary switch to one of the 13 net preset positions.
b. Observe that there are no fault indications and that the battery
indicator on the upper left-hand side of the display shows some
battery capacity.

BATTERY LIFE
Battery life is the approximate amount of time a battery can be used
before it needs to be recharged or replaced. The battery life is determined
by transmission power and duty cycle. To maximize battery life, transmit
only when necessary and use the lowest transmit power level required to
communicate.
The battery life data is provided as a guideline and is typical at +68 °F
(+20 °C) with a 10% transmit, 10% receive, 80% idle (squelched)
operating cycle. Actual results may vary. Battery life is dependent upon
battery age, temperature, charge times, and amount of back light usage.
Battery life will decrease approximately 20-25% at -4 °F (-20 °C).

STORAGE GUIDELINES
Store the radio in a secure location and use local security procedures.
Store batteries in a clean, cool (below 70 °F [+21 °C]), dry, and ventilated
storage area.

DUAL PUSH-TO-TALK (PTT)

The Dual Push-To-Talk (PTT) function allows you to communicate on a
secondary net using a second PTT button. Dual PTT is programmed on
a per net basis and is only supported on fixed frequency nets not
configured for Multiple Access Collision Avoidance generation 2
(MACA2) or Legacy MACA. (Refer to ADVANCED OPERATIONS, p75
for information on MACA2.)
4
When dual PTT is active, the radio can transmit and receive on either of
the two nets. The radio always associates the primary net (i.e., the
selected net) with the primary PTT button (upper PTT), and the
secondary net with the secondary PTT (lower PTT), regardless of which
net is actively being received. For example, if receiving on the secondary
net, pressing the PTT1 causes the radio to switch to the primary net and
transmit.

Dual PTT Operation

Figure 13 shows a dual display example. For Dual PTT operation:
a. Place rotary switch in one of two simple fixed frequency nets.
Nets must be programmed for Dual PTT operation. Keys must
be programmed if operating in CT.
b. Observe correct encryption setting (PT or CT) for both nets.
c. Observe that the transmit power level is correct (LOW, MED,
HIGH, HIGH+).
d. Observe that the correct Receive (RX) frequency and Transmit
(TX) frequency are used for both nets.
e. Observe that R displays when idle (ready to receive). Both nets
are monitored for Receive traffic. The net name of the specific
net you are actively receiving on will flash.
f. Press upper PTT to transmit using PTT1. Press lower PTT to
transmit using PTT2.
g. Observe, when transmitting, the net name will blink. While
communicating, the RX/TX meter displays the relative

PT OVERRIDE
The radio is capable of receiving PT analog voice on a net programmed
for CT digital voice. While demodulating analog FM voice in fixed
frequency CT, periodic warning beeps occur. This is known as PT
override. If the net is configured for PT, digital voice (CT) signals are not
decrypted.

CHANNEL SCANNING
Channel scanning searches fixed frequency net presets in a scan list (up
to 25) for the presence of an RF signal. Net scanning is not available in
frequency hopping modes or Channel Access MACA1/MACA2 modes.
A full scan list can be used in PT. Reliable operation in CT requires two
procedural modifications because of the preamble synchronization
required by encrypted transmissions.
• First, the calling radio should have ROBUST set in the FSK
PREAMBLE. This extends the transmitters preamble to give the
scanning radio enough time to synchronize after it scans all
other nets in the scan list.

47
 RF-7800V-HH
FF OPERATIONS

• Second, the number of nets in a CT scan list should be no more

than five with a sixth Receive (RX) Priority Net. It is possible to
scan more nets in CT, but some calls may be missed.
From the SCANNING programming menu, there are three scan modes;
inactive (scan if off), manual and automatic. If Dual PTT is enabled, then
Dual PTT Scan is also available.
4 In automatic scan, the radio scans each net in the list for the presence of
an RF signal. Hold time determines how long the radio will stay on a net
after keying/transmitting. If hold time is zero (default), the radio will
immediately resume auto scanning. Hang time determines how long the
radio will stay on a net after receiving. The default is 3 seconds.
Change an automatic scan to a manual scan by pressing [CLR] at the
SCANNING display. Select either the Up Arrow or Down Arrow to choose
a net from the scan list. See Figure 14.

QUICKLOOK OPERATION

QUICKLOOK
Quicklook Electronic Counter-Counter Measures (ECCM) are supported.
Transmit and receive operations are performed on either the same
frequency hopset, or on different frequency hopsets. Quicklook Wide and
Quicklook 3 in mixed mode require the same frequency hopset.
The radio operates in a frequency range of 30 MHz to 107.975 MHz for
Quicklook 1A/2, 3, and Quicklook Wide.

QUICKLOOK 1A/2
5
Quicklook 1A ECCM supports a hopping rate of over 100 hops/second.
Quicklook 2 ECCM supports a hopping rate of over 300 hops/second.

QUICKLOOK 3
Quicklook 3 ECCM requires Time-of-Day (TOD) synchronization, either

Positioning System (GPS). Features supported are:
• Free Channel Search (FCS) mode. Use this to automatically
avoid poor channels.
• Slow hop rate (over 100 hops/second) and Medium hop rate
(over 300 hops/second).
• Stored channel condition data, which allows selection of the
best possible frequency. Selection for TX is FCS only.
• Quicklook 3 Fast Mode (over 1000 hops/second) uses Mixed-
Excitation Linear Predictive Vocoder (MELP) voice and 2.4
kilobits per second (kbps) synchronous data. Compatible with
all other Quicklook 3 modes.
• Mixed Mode, which automatically selects between transmitting
on a single frequency (FCS mode) and a user-selected hop rate
(slow, medium, fast) based on channel conditions. Compatible
with all other Quicklook 3 modes. Requires the same hopset for
transmit and receive operations.

HOPSET
A Hopset is a predetermined set of frequencies on which a radio transmits
and receives. When using a Hopset, the radio switches transmit or
receive frequencies in rapid succession. This capability adds a layer of
security to transmitted signals and also serves to reduce the effects of
signal jamming by enemy forces.

LOCKSET
A Lockset specifies a range of frequencies that will not be used during
frequency hopping operations. Locksets are used when local directives
prohibit transmission on certain frequencies, or for other operational
reasons.

COUNTRY WIDE REPEATER OVERVIEW

Country Wide Repeater (CWR) is built upon a Fixed Frequency network
using the Multiple Access Collision Avoidance (MACA) version 2
(MACA2). MACA2 is an IP protocol for Narrowband waveforms used in
International LOS radios.

Functionality
CWR provides the following functionality.
• Channel access algorithm
• Directed calling (no group calls or all calls)
6 • Broadcast Push-To-Talk (PTT)
• Group PTT
• Internet Protocol (IP) data: unicast, broadcast, and multicast
• Global Positioning System (GPS) Situational Awareness (SA)
data
Repeater radios (RF-7800V or RF-7850M) serve as stages (access
points) and are supported by a high speed IP backbone such as a Local
Area Network (LAN). The RF-7800W High Capacity Line Of Sight
(HCLOS) radio is a backbone that supports up to 100 stages. See
Figure 20 for an example CWR system.
Up to 1022 devices are supported across the entire backbone. A device
is either an outstation radio or a stage. A stage that consists of a pair of
radios supports connectivity to the network and local coverage. A stage
with only a single radio has no local coverage.
Data rates are:
• 25 kHz bandwidth at up to 64 kbps
• 75 kHz bandwidth at up to 192 kbps
Mobility
Users register to find and connect to a stage. You can move and re-
register to connect to a different stage. Your radio always has the same

60

IP address and radio ID for directed calls regardless of where it is

connected.

CWR OPERATIONS

Control Repeater
This is the stage radio that services registration requests and is used for
local coverage.

TX Operations
You can configure the destination (LOS or backbone) of each type of
communication.
• PTT1/PTT2 – local, regional, single stage, or multi-stage
• Local coverage allows outstations at one stage to talk
directly to other outstations in range with the stage
6 without using CWR backbone even when the
outstations are out of line of sight of each other.
• Region broadcast is to the subset of stages in the
network configured with the same region ID as the
outstation's current stage.
• Single-stage broadcast is only to the outstations
current stage.
• Multi-stage broadcast is to every repeater stage in the
network
• Directed calling – local or backbone
• Unicast IP data – local or backbone
• GPS – local
• Broadcast/Multicast IP data – local, single stage, or multi-stage
When set to local, outstations will talk directly to each other. When set to
backbone, outstations will use the repeater radios to talk to other
outstations even if located at the same stage.

62
 RF-7800V-HH
CWR OPERATIONS

Frequencies
The following identifies how frequencies are used in CWR.
• Squad Frequency (SF) - Idle frequency that is used to initiate an
action.
• Control/Registration Frequency (CF) - Used for registration.
• Origin Frequency (OF) - Source of the action switches to this
frequency.
• Link Frequency (LF) - Destination of the action switches to this
frequency.

Configuration 6
Refer to the Communication Planning Application (CPA) help for
examples of CWR system configurations. CPA is required for
configuration.

Network Display Settings

Refer to [APPS] > CWR.

CWR OPERATION EXAMPLES

The following examples describe how CWR works.

Idle Backbone
This is the state of the backbone when idle.
• All squad repeaters are on their stage squad frequencies SF(x).
• All control repeaters are on their registration/control frequency
CF(x).
• All outstations are on their respective squad frequencies SF(x).
• Outstations on the same stage can communicate with each
6 other locally on SF(x).
• Outstations can request backbone access via the squad
repeater their respective squad frequency SF(x).

Automatic Registration with Stage

The process to automatically register with a stage is as follows.
a. User radio roams into range of the stage.

b. Select registration from the status screen to go to the

CWR Registration screen.
c. Select AUTOMATIC to start automatic registration.
d. Observe that outstation radio cycles through the list of
registration Frequencies (CF1, CF2, CF3) until a response is
received.
e. The stage control repeater responds on it's corresponding
registration frequency CF(X).
f. User radio records the Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) of the
exchange with the stage, and selects the stage with the best
SNR. User radio sends data about itself to the stage on CF(X).
g. The stage stores the outstation radio data and sends stage data
on CF(X).

h. User radio stores the stage data.

i. Observe that if registration is successful, a message displays
indicating the Stage ID your radio is connected to as shown in
Figure 26.

j. Observe that if registration is not successful, a message

displays indicating that your radio was unable to contact a
stage.

Directed Call Data Example Single Stage

The process to place a directed call within a single stage is as follows.
a. User 1 radio attempts to call/send IP data to User 2 radio (Tx
Ops = backbone).
b. The call is sent to the squad repeater on SF1.
c. The squad repeater knows it is responsible for User 2 and
forwards the call on SF1.
d. User 2 replies to the squad repeater on SF1.
e. The squad repeater forwards the reply to User 1 radio on SF1.
f. The squad repeater informs the control repeater of circuit
creation.
g. User 1 and squad repeater switch to origin frequency OF1. User
2 and control repeater switch to link frequency LF1.

Universal Serial Bus (USB) on radio must be set to AUTO or HOST
([PGM] > USB MODE) and the ancillary connector mode ([PGM] >
MISC) must be set to AUTO or ON to mount a camera (or physical USB
thumb drive) as an external USB drive on the radio. Refer to [PGM] >
MISC, p146.
Connect a camera or USB drive using one of the USB cables listed in
Optional Accessories, p250. Cable depends on camera USB connector.
a. Connect USB cable between camera and radio.
b. Observe that camera appears on radio as EXTUSBDRIVE1 in
file browser ([APPS] > FILE BROWSER, p81).
c. Send files to another radio or Internet Protocol (IP) address
7
(refer to File Transfer Setup, p252).
CONNECTING TO IP NETWORK
Connect to IP network as follows.
a. Set radio IP address of radio. Refer to [PGM] > IP
CONFIGURATION, p138.
b. Connect cable between radio and PC/router/hub. Use USB -
Ethernet with RJ-45 cable (12067-5220-01). This cable has
internal USB-to-Ethernet converter.

PROGRAMMING OVERVIEW
This section provides information on front panel programming.
Programming is also accomplished using the Communications Planning
Application (CPA) or using the Web User Interface.
Some programming functions may not be available because of your User
Level. Refer to User Levels, p76 for more information.
Select the SAVE soft key to save changes made from the front panel
programming functions.
Program the radio from a CPA mission plan while logged in as user level
3. Use the following methods to transfer the plan:
• Connect the USB Field Programming Cable (12067-7220-
A006) and use the CPA Programming screen to load the fill file.
Disconnect the cable to initiate programming.
8 • Connect an external Universal Serial Bus (USB) flash drive
(12067-5600-01). Mount the drive as EXTUSBDRIVE1.
• Connect a USB to Ethernet adapter cable (12067-5220-01) and
use File Transfer Protocol (FTP) and copy the fill to the radio’s
Autoload directory.
• Upload the plan using the Web User Interface File Browser.
• Connect the PC and radio on the same network using direct
Ethernet or Remote Network Driver Interface Specification
(RNDIS) for USB. Fill the radio directly through the CPA by
specifying the IP address.
Fill the radio as follows:
a. Access [APPS] > FILL RADIO.
b. Navigate to the fill file and press [ENT].
c. Select YES at the prompt “ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO
LOAD A NEW CONFIG”. The plan will load to the radio.

Item Description

Net Name (or Number) can be any net, 1 - 25.

Net Name > FSK PREAMBLE Select Frequency Shift Keying (FSK)
Preamble length depending on channel
conditions. Only available on fixed frequency
simple nets (CHANNEL ACCESS = NONE).
Preamble must be the same in all radios in
the net:
• DEFAULT - Appropriate for all modes
except as described for ROBUST and
SHORT.
• ROBUST - Use for poor channel
conditions, when transmitting to a radio
that is scanning, or when transmitting
through an RF-5800V retransmit site.
• SHORT - Can be used if power
management is disabled and channel 8
conditions are good.
Net Name > BANDWIDTH Select 25 kHz or 75 kHz bandwidth.

75 kHz allows higher data rates up to 192

kbps in fixed frequency. This bandwidth has
the advantage of reducing transmission time
and bringing advanced functionality to the
combat net radio.

25 kHz is compatible with legacy radios and

supports data rates up to 64 kbps in fixed
frequency. This bandwidth provides
flexibility to the communication plan
development by allowing the planner to use
channels spaced in tight 25 kHz increments.
Net Name > QLW ADV MODE Select Yes for firmware version 4.3 and
greater or No for earlier versions. Advanced
provides performance improvements to CT
Voice operation in a QL Wide net.
Net Name > CHANNEL Select None, Multiple Access Collision
ACCESS Avoidance generation 2 (MACA2), or
Legacy MACA.

Table 11. [PGM] > NET MANAGER Menu Items (Continued)

Item Description

Net Name > CIRCUIT TYPE For MACA2, select:

DEFAULT - Data transmission is limited to
an on-air time up to four seconds for the
channel access window. This allows equal
channel access probability and data
throughput.
POINT TO POINT - This data circuit
reserves the channel for point-to-point data
transfer for two radios. This is the preferred
mode for streaming video. While the two
radios are transferring data, all other channel
activity is held off, including voice. If you
want voice communications while a data
circuit is active, you must perform a voice
break-in (refer to Voice Break-In, p36).
SIMULTANEOUS - This allows you to
transmit voice and data at the same time.
With this type of network, the data is limited 8
to a channel access window of two seconds
maximum and is subject to the standard
MACA2 channel access requests.
This setting allows you to send Mixed-
Excitation Linear Predictive Vocoder (MELP)
voice without interrupting IP data and
Situational Awareness (SA) reports on the
net (with limited data throughput).
CWR - This is used for country-wide
repeater systems where Voice and Data can
be sent locally or over a repeater backbone.
Net Name > QL3 HOP RATE For Quicklook 3 (QL3), Free Channel
Search (FCS) and slow hopping is encoded
and transmitted at 16 kbps, while medium is
sent at 12 kbps, and fast is sent at 2.4 kbps.
AUTO will choose between FCS and the
configured QL3 Preferred Hop Rate.
Net Name > MIXED MODE For Quicklook 3 if AUTO is selected above,
HOP select a preferred hop rate of Slow, Med, or
Fast.
Net Name > MODULATION Refer to Table 12.
Net Name > Not user selectable. Refer to Table 12.

Item Description

Net Name > BIT RATE Select bit rate for data operations. This
setting is based upon the bandwidth,
channel access, and transec setting for the
net. Data rates range from 1600 bps to
192000 bps. For 75 kHz bandwidth, use
4800 to 192000. Refer to Table 12.
Net Name > CRYPTO SYNC If crypto mode is CT, select crypto
MODE Synchronization (Sync) mode.
• MINERR (default mode) - crypto
synchronization must take place before
an encrypted transmission can be
decrypted. Supported on Simple and
Wireless Internet Protocol (WIP) nets.
• RESYNC - allows a CVSD enabled
radio on simple voice/data nets to
receive an encrypted transmission
8 already in progress. More susceptible
to noise than MINERR.
Net Name > HOPSET Empty, or hopset name. Used for Quicklook
Wide, where separate Rx and Tx hopsets
are not supported. [PGM] > TRANSEC,
p129.
Net Name > RX HOPSET Enter receive hopset that was previously
configured per [PGM] > TRANSEC, p129.
Net Name > TX HOPSET Enter transmit hopset that was previously
configured per [PGM] > TRANSEC, p129.
Net Name > RX FREQUENCY Enter receive frequency from 30 - 108 MHz.
Net Name > TX FREQUENCY Enter transmit frequency from 30 - 108 MHz.
Net Name > RX SQUELCH Select noise, tone, digital or none. If tone is
selected, all radios must use tone for TX
squelch.
Net Name > TX SQUELCH Select tone or none.
Net Name > FM DEVIATION Select FM deviation of 5 kHz, 6.5 kHz, or 8

ADDRESS TYPE Select whether static or dynamic address is

used. For dynamic, radio must be connected
to a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
(DHCP) server.
STATIC IP If static Internet Protocol (IP) address type is
selected, enter the IP address.
STATIC NET MASK If static IP address type is selected, enter the
net mask.
STATIC GATEWAY If static IP address type is selected, enter the

MULTICAST GROUP Define Multicast Group name(s) and the IP
address(es) to be forwarded. If configured to 8
forward multicast data only, one wired
interface will be used to forward data. The
Ethernet and RNDIS interfaces are preferred
over the PPP interface. Ethernet and RNDIS
are mutually exclusive due to the USB mode
each uses.
The radio must be configured for wireless IP
operation for this feature to function. To
forward UDP multicast data for a particular
multicast group address, the address must
be configured on each radio that bridges the
networks between the multicast server and
clients. The multicast address configuration
is part of the radio’s existing IP configuration
group.
MULTICAST TTL Set Multicast Time To Live value (0 - 255
seconds).
MULTICAST MODE Set Multicast Mode to Host or Bypass.
Host programs the radio to act as an Internet
Group Management Protocol (IGMP) Host.
IGMP is a communications protocol used by
hosts and adjacent routers on IPv4 networks
to establish multicast group memberships.
Bypass programs the radio to bypass all
IGMP traffic.

GROUP CALLING CONFIGURATION
A radio can be a member of up to 10 Talk Groups. This allows designated
net members to communicate between themselves without involving
other members. Channel Access must be set to MACA2 to allow Group
Calling. Each Talk Group on a net has a defined name and address
(similar to a MAC address). Telephony is supported, but only when calling
8
from a phone into a radio network.
To make a Group Call, press the Call soft key from the Radio TacChat
home screen. Go to the Talk Group choice and select from a list of talk
groups on that net.

PTT Talk Groups

Assign a Talk Group to PTT1 and/or PTT2. Keying a PTT with an
assigned Talk Group allows you to communicate with just the members
of that group (as opposed to broadcast). This will still hold off voice and
data from all other stations like a normal broadcast PTT or a call.

In order to support vertical navigation, multi-line text fields have a
navigation mode and an editing mode. When in navigation mode, use the
arrow keys to move up, down, back, and forward. When in editing mode,
the traditional alphanumeric entry keypad is active for character
insertion.
Text prediction is another feature of the enhanced text editing. When
active ([PGM] > PREDICTIVE TEXT), this feature will attempt to make
intelligent predictions about which of the available characters to cycle
through first. For example, when the letters “MA” are entered followed by
pressing 6 on the keypad, the options are: M, N, O, or 6. If the word
“MAN” was previously used, text prediction would first put “N” in place,
repetitive presses to 6 would cycle through the remaining options. Only
text entered with the feature turned on will affect the predictions
performance.

KEYWORDS
Alert messages have the capability of including keywords at any point in
the message. Actual insertion of this dynamic information is done after
the command to send the message and before the message is sent.
Keyword substitution is configurable. Substituting multiple keywords in
one message is supported. If the substituted text is larger than the
keyword, the overall message may be truncated if it would otherwise
exceed the maximum message size. Keywords are:
• {LOC} = Radio’s current GPS location (CT nets only). PT nets
are sent {LOC}. If the radio has no GPS fix, “UNKNOWN” is
sent. If the radio’s GPS position is not current, then the location
string is preceded by the words “LAST KNOWN”.
• {NAME} = Radio’s name.

STATUS DISPLAY
The Status display is a send-in-progress screen that includes an ABORT

WEB USER INTERFACE

WEB USER INTERFACE

Harris RF-7850AP-SW101 is a purchasable option that provides the user
with a Web-based User Interface (Web UI). The option is loaded on the
radio as a .RUF file. Access to the interface is via your local IP network.
Connect your radio using either direct ethernet, Remote Network Driver
Interface Specification (RNDIS), or to a local network. Either Dynamic
Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) or Static addressing is used to the
local network. A browser supporting HTML5 can be used:
• Google Chrome (latest version)
• Mozilla Firefox (latest version)
• Internet Explorer (IE10 or higher)
You may need to adjust your browser settings for Trusted Sites. The Web
UI can automatically adapt to and take advantage of device-specific
properties such as screen size, graphics capabilities, and touch screen
support.

NOTE
For voicemail playback support, an audio plugin (such
as QuickTime) is required.
10
The applications available on the Web UI mimic some of the APPs in the
radio’s menu structure. The following applications are available with the
Web UI. Ground Force Tracker and Configuration come standard with the
radio while the others require the RF-7850AP-SW101 option.
• GPS Force Tracker - view local position, along with any
received Situational Awareness (SA) reports. Allows you to
place friendly forces on a map.
• Configuration - Access radio configuration features. User level
password restrictions apply to the Web UI the same as for front
panel programming.
• RF-7850AP-SW101 option provides access to TacChat, file
system browsing, custom applications, soft KDU, diagnostics,
and video.

Function Specification

SVD Simultaneous Voice and Data (SVD) support allows you to

send MELP voice without interrupting IP data and SA
reports on the net (with limited data throughput). Voice is
sent in two second bursts, and the data rates are the same
as other MACA2 nets. SVD is only available when using
MACA2 channel access.
Rates will be reduced significantly during voice traffic.
Waveform data rate remains the same, but throughput is
decreased due to time slots taken for voice.
Dual PTT Dual Net Push-To-Talk (PTT) is supported
LAN Direct Connection to Local Area Network (LAN) and USB
Devices.
SNMP Support for V1, 2, and 3 Simple Network Management
Protocol (SNMP).
Digital Data Narrowband Frequency Shift Keying (FSK) in hopping
modes (QL1A/QL2/QL3).
FSK in PT and Cipher Text (CT) fixed frequency.
Wideband FSK used for Quicklook (QL) Wide hopping
nets.
Trellis Coded Modulation (TCM) in CT and PT fixed
frequency.
MACA2 Multiple Access Collision Avoidance generation 2
(MACA2). A wireless network node (or station) makes an
announcement before it sends the data frame to inform
other nodes to keep silent. When a node wants to transmit,
it sends a Request-To-Send (RTS) with the length of the
12 data frame to send. If the receiver allows the transmission,
it replies to the sender with a Clear-To-Send (CTS) with the
length of the frame that is about to receive. A node that
hears RTS would remain silent to avoid conflict with CTS.
A node that hears CTS should keep silent until the data
transmission is complete.
Legacy MACA Support for interoperability with RF-5800V-MP, RF-
5800M-HH, and RF-5800V-HH in Wireless IP and Directed
nets is provided.

FILE TRANSFER SETUP

Data files are sent from the radio’s internal memory or directly from
attached USB devices. File transfers use the same protocol as the
RF-6705 Tactical Chat IP application. Transfers between radios or
between a radio and PC running Tactical Chat IP are supported.
See Figure 113 for a radio setup example. This example uses Wireless
Internet Protocol (IP) for transfer between two radios as well as a physical
Ethernet connection. Only the wireless IP connection is required for
transfer between two radios. To support file transfer:
• Physical:
• Use cables as listed in Optional Accessories, p250.
• Net settings:
• Channel Access = Multiple Access Collision Avoidance
gen2 (MACA2)
• Circuit Type = NONE
• In the example shown in Figure 113, radio 1 must have an
added route of:
• Destination: 192.168.101.0
• Mask: 255.255.255.0
• Gateway: 192.168.0.2
12 NOTE
Refer to [APPS] > IP CONFIG, p89 for instructions on
adding a route.
• USB mode ([PGM] > USB MODE) must be set to AUTO or
HOST.
