ID:  2059

Object Description

The VComm Set Radio/ICS Name object can be used in conjunction with VComm Radio Objects to create a name to be tagged onto the existing HLA RTI Object Identifier Name. This object only works with radios engaged in an HLA exercise. Using this object with a DIS radio has no effect.

To use the object, simply connect the output handle of a radio/intercom object to the radio handle input of this object. The data collected on the input pin is sent to the radio/intercom object and can be changed while V+ is running.
