activity on a radio resource and allows a dispatcher to see at a glance what the status of a resource is at any
moment.
2.2.9.5 Calf Alerting
A dispatch operator can “page” an unattended radio or console through a series of beeps and an indication of the
sender's ID. When available, the radio user or dispatch operator will see the unit ID of the calling dispatch operator's
console or radio ID and be able to return the call. Additionally, a Call Alert can be used to trigger an activity. For
instance, a Call Alert may cause a vehicle’s horn to sound and its lights to flash. The dispatch cperator can even
send a call alert to a user who is involved in voice and data communications over the network.
2.4 PROTECTING CONSOLES AND COMMUNICATIONS
The MCC 7500 dispatch console enables end-to-end encryption from the operator position to the ASTRO 25 network,
so that The City's of Nashua and Manchester communications will not be undermined by unencrypted transmissions.
Each dispatch operator will be able to fully participate in secure communications while being confident that
sensitive, vital information will not be heard by unauthorized individuals.
2.4.1 Secure Access to the Console
To use the dispatch console, a dispatch operator must enter a valid radio system user account name and password.
The dispatch console validates that information with the radio system's network manager and allows the user to
access only the resources for which the user has access rights. This also applies te third-party applications that use
the dispatch console's API.
2.4.2 Secure Communications at the Console
The console encrypts and decrypts radio veice messages. Thus, radio voice messages are encrypted end-to-end,
from the field radio user to the dispatch console. The dispatch operator can choose whether to encrypt their
transmissions on a particular trunked resource. Dispatch operators can interface with agencies that have different
encryption configurations without any manual intervention or delay. The MCC 7500 console can support up to 60 calls
simultaneously, using up to four different algorithms and multiple encryption keys.
2.5 INCORPORATING CONSOLE CONFIGURATION AND MANAGEMENT
The MECC 7500 console system is configured and managed by the same configuration manager, fault manager, and
performance reporting applications as the radio system. The user can define exactly which resources are available
and how they are presented to the dispatch console user. This will provide The City's of Nashua and Manchester
with a single point for configuring and managing the entire ASTRO 25 system. Changes are automatically distributed
throughout the system. This centralized approach saves valuable time and effort for system administrators and
technicians, and reduces the errors that can occur when radio IDs and other data are entered at multiple locations.
In addition, call traffic and performance reports for each console can be generated from the system's network
manager, enabling administrators to quickly and easily ensure optimal effectiveness and efficiency.
