CONVENTIONAL MODE FEATURES

34

Keypad programming allows conventional 

channel parameters such as the transmit and receive 
frequency and Call Guard squelch code to be changed. 
In addition, several conventional mode timers can be 
changed. It cannot be used to reprogram disabled 
channels or any SMARTNET/SmartZone/P25 
Trunked information.

5.17.2  MENU DESCRIPTION

A menu system is used to select parameters in the 

keypad programming mode. A flowchart showing the 
keypad programming mode menu structure is located 
in Figure 5-1. When the keypad programming mode is 
selected by the Keypad Programming option switch or 
menu parameter, the first menu parameter “CHNG 
ZONE” is displayed as just described. Press the Up/
Down switch to scroll through the available parame-
ters which are listed below. 

•

CHNG ZONE

•

CHNG CHAN

•

SYS PARMS

•

CHAN PARMS

Press the F2 (Select) key to select a highlighted 

parameter, and press the F1 key from one of the main 
menus to exit keypad programming. Pressing it in the 
other menus returns to the previous menu. Additional 
information on this parameters is located in the 
following sections.

5.17.3  ZONE PASSWORD

NOTE: 

Make sure that the zone password(s) are not 

lost because they cannot be overridden in the field. 
The PCConfigure software must be used to display the 
lost password or program a new password.

Each zone can be programmed with a password 

by the PCConfigure software to prevent unauthorized 
reprogramming of zone by keypad programming. 
When this password is programmed, it must be entered 
before system or channel parameters in that zone can 
be changed by keypad programming. The zone pass-
word is programmed in the Zones > Edit Zone screen 
of the PCConfigure programmer. This screen is 
displayed by clicking the Edit Zone button. A different 
password can be programmed for each zone. 

When an attempt is made to select a system or 

channel parameter in a password protected zone, 
“PASSWORD” is flashed. The password is always 
eight digits long and is entered using the same proce-
dure as used for the power-up password described in 
Section 3.2. After the password is entered, system and 
channel parameters for that zone can be reprogrammed 
normally.

5.17.4  ZONE CHANGE PARAMETER

The “CHNG ZONE” menu parameter selects the 

zone containing the conventional channel to be repro-
grammed. It does not change the zone selected for 
normal operation. 

Press the F2 switch to select the “ZONE CHG” 

parameter and then scroll through the programmed 
zones by pressing the Up/Down switch. When the 
desired zone is displayed, select it by pressing the F2 
switch.

5.17.5  CHANNEL CHANGE PARAMETER

The “CHNG CHAN” menu parameter selects the 

conventional channel to be reprogrammed. Disabled or 
SMARTNET/SmartZone/P25 Trunked channels 
cannot be selected. This does not change the channel 
selected for normal operation. 

Press the Select switch to select the “CHNG 

CHAN” parameter and then scroll through the 
programmed channels by pressing the Up/Down 
switch. When the desired channel is displayed, select it 
by pressing F2 switch.

5.17.6  SYSTEM PARAMETERS

NOTE: If “PASSWORD” is briefly displayed when 
attempting to select a parameter, see Section 5.17.3.

The “SYS PARMS” menu parameter selects the 

conventional mode timers to be reprogrammed (see 
following). Press the F2 switch to select the “SYS 
PARMS” parameter and then press the Up/Down 
switch to display the desired parameter. Then press the 
F2 switch again to select it.

SCAN TIMER - 

Selects the Scan Hold timer. 

Press the Up/Down switch to increment/decrement
