Enter from 1.000000 to 520.000000 (though, of
course, the radio will only function for

Enter from 1.000000 to 520.000000 (though, of
course, the radio will only function for

Digital
Fixed DCC
Select “Enable” or “Disable”. When this is
enabled, the radio will only attempt to register
to sites utilizing the color code entered in the
Color Code column. This setting is primarily
used to distinguish between different systems
that utilize the same frequency (most
commonly in geographically dissimilar areas).

Prefer Last-
site
Select “Enable” or “Disable”. This sets the
search behavior of the radio when it is first
turned on or a new system has been selected. If
this field is set to “Disable” the radio will
always search for its home site first. If set to
“Enable,” the radio will always search first for
the site it was registered to when the radio was
shut off or the system was changed. “Disable”
may help the PassPort system operator reduce
network traffic; “Enable” will probably ensure
quicker end-user registrations.
