IDAS Solutions

With a VE-PG4 RoIP gateway, the IDAS conventional, Type-D multi-site trunking and Mode 3 trunking* system can interconnect with an IP phone, LTE transceiver, wireless LAN transceiver and analog radios as well as NXDN and dPMR protocols. A radio user can initiate phone/radio calls to talk with other users using a different protocol (for example; IP radio) between different systems.
* Mode 3 trunking will be available in the future.

The RC-FS10 Remote Communicator software creates a virtual radio/simple dispatcher on a Windows®-based PC. It enables you to remotely access IDAS repeaters using an IP network and communicate with IDAS radios or monitor radio communications even from outside of the radio coverage area. You can customize the RCFS10 screen interface for more efficient use.

• RC-FS10 is available with IDAS conventional and Type-D multi-site trunking system.

The IDAS radio can receive both analog and digital conventional mode signals on a channel and can reply according to the received mode. The IDAS system allows you to migrate analog systems to narrow band digital at your own pace and need, while running your existing analog system. It is a cost efficient way to obtain the latest digital two-way radio technology, while protecting your current system investment.

In conjunctions with the industry standard AMBE+2™ Vocoder and Icom’s DSP expertise, maximum voice clarity and background noise suppression within the 6.25 kHz channel is achieved.

IDAS radios also implement audio features and settings to compliment the performance of the vocoder.

When the GPS feature is used, the IDAS radio can automatically transmit accurate position data at programmed intervals. 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 in a microSD card memory.

The IDAS radio can be used as a transparent data modem which transmits the serial data received from a PC or various devices*. The IDAS radio can interface with other Bluetooth® devices for easy data entry.
* Third-party products required.

To ensure workers safety, IDAS handheld radios have the following four emergency related functions. If one of these functions are activated, the radio automatically sends an emergency signal.

The OTAP function enables you to distribute a radio configuration file overthe-air and remotely reconfigure radios while in the field. The system operator can edit channels, call lists, status message lists and more, and can schedule the updating from Specified time, Next power-up, Auto restart and Reactivation key. Save considerable time and eliminate the need to return the radio for reprogramming.

The system management software remotely monitors multiple repeater conditions and traffic statistics over the IP network. If it detects abnormal conditions, the software can send an email alert to the system administrator.

• RS-MGR1 for Type-D multi-site trunking
• RS-MGR2 for dPMR Mode 3 trunking

In addition to the digital modulation and demodulation, the digital voice scrambler gives your voice and data calls privacy against casual eavesdropping by a scanner receiver. When higher grade security is required, AES and DES encryption* are available. The OTAR (Over-the-Air Rekeying) function allows secure updating of encryption keys over the radio channel.

• AES/DES for IC-F3400D/F4400D and IC-F5400D/F6400D

The intelligent battery charger software checks the battery health, battery age and battery cycle count whenever a battery is inserted into an intelligent charger. The Eco mode stops charging at approximately 80–90% to extend the battery’s life. The batteries can be optimally maintained and an indication of timing for battery replacement is given.
