← USA Crypto FILL
The device is housed in a rugged green die-cast aluminium enclosure that
measures 130 x 64 x 38 mm and weights 350 gram, battery included. It has a
male U-229 socket
for connection to a host device — either directly or via a
fill cable.
At the front is a hinged lid, below which an 8-bit reader is located, that
accepts 8-bit ASCII format punched paper tape, which is
pulled through the reader manually. As the synchronous
DS-102 protocol
is used, the sprocket holes in the key tape generate the clock pulses.
The host device will signal whether the transfer was successful.

As the device does not contain memory, it can not hold any cryptographic keys
and, hence, can not be used as a key fill device. Instead it should be used
to transfer a key directly from tape into a
cryptographic device or
to transfer the key from tape to a
regular key fill device like the
KYK-13 or the
KSP-1.
The KOI-18 is equivalent to the KLL-1,
made by the German manufacturer ANT.
