Radio Discovery Tool (RDT) is available with RDT Live and RDT Pro.​
​
-
RDT Pro is an advanced tool for Icom radios to troubleshoot problems with radio communications and incident analysis based on information imported after the event from the SD card in select Icom radios. Includes all RDT Live capabilities.
-
RDT Live allows for real-time tracking of IP501H / IP501M and IC-SAT100 / IC-SAT100M devices.
Why RDT Pro
RDT Pro is a helpful tool for:
-
Determining actual coverage of systems
-
Investigating interference issues
-
Determining locations of users during reception, transmission, and at select intervals for troubleshooting analysis
-
Listening to the quality of actual transmissions
-
Listening to see if transmissions are being interfered with
-
Determining the actual channel selected upon transmission or reception
-
Whether voice quality meets requirements (DAQ analysis)
-
Easy creation of custom channel announcements
-
The ability to analyze recorded data from select Icom radios with SD cards for Icom's IC-F3400 / IC-F5400 series, IC-F7000 / IC-F7500 series, IC-R8600, and IC-R30 receivers
-
Includes all of the capabilities of RDT Live
How RDT Pro Works
-
Icom’s IC-F3400D, IC-F5400D, IC-F7010 & IC-F7510 series, and the IC-R30 can store received and transmitted voice when provisioned with SD cards. Each voice recording records the date, time, position, RSSI information, and much more.
-
RDT Pro converts the metadata stored in each voice recording the radio performs and displays it in both table and map formats for analysis and review.
-
Includes all RDT Live features – refer to that section for more detail.
Why RDT Live
RDT Live is for:
-
Determining the location of IP501H and IP501M users
-
Determining the location of IC-SAT100 and IC-SAT100M users
-
Historical tracking of where the users have been
-
Send messages (IC-SAT100/IC-SAT100M)
-
Emergency status
How RDT Live Works
-
Icom's IP501H and IP501M LTE CONNECT radios are capable of broadcasting their position in intervals as small as 30 seconds (application depending).
-
This position is relayed through the VE-PG4 or a fixed IP501M to RDT Live.
-
RDT Live then displays their position to track on Google Earth.
-
IC-SAT100 and IC-SAT100M radios can send their positions when the user transmits.
-
This position is relayed through another IC-SAT100 or IC-SAT100M to RDT Live.
