TM 11-5895-1412-12&PThis chapter describes the various PAM selections used to generate random SOIdata.Use this chapter to learn how to generate call signs (see Gen CallSigns, page 2-69), frequency information (see Gen Frequency, page 2-69),SINCGARS information (see Gen SINCGARS, page 2-73), suffixes and expanders(see Gen Suf/Exp, page 2-78), signs and countersigns (see Gen Sign/Cntr, page2-79) and smoke and pyrotechnic information (see Gen Smoke/Pyre, page 2-84).Generation of random data is divided between six different generationroutines.This separation allows for flexibility in generation sincegenerated data is not always needed for each section.An initialization vector, supplied by NSA, is required for random SOI datageneration.A new vector is required for each complete set of SOI generation.It is a violation of doctrine to use one initialization vector for multipleSOI data generations.The generation routines are called from the BECS PAM Menu shown in Figure 2-48.Figure 2-49To initiate a generation routine, move the arrow cursor to the name of thedesired routine and press either <f1>, START APPLIC or <RETURN>.After selecting any of the generation routines, confirm if this is a mergeddata base.Do not perform a generation of data that has been passed from2-67
