2.20 FRONT PANEL PROGRAMMING (FPP) MODE - OPTIONAL
One or more of the bands may have the capability to program channel information such as
frequencies, PL tones, modulation types, etc from the front panel. ‘FPP’ will show up as one
of the soft menu items at the bottom of the screen if this option has been ordered. When
the FPP soft key is pressed, you will be prompt for channel information. Wait until the
cursor is flashing then press ‘OK’ for the next input or press ‘QUIT’ to finish and get out of
the programming mode. All changes up to that point will be saved. The prompts are as
follows:
TX Frequency
– Enter the desired transmit frequency using the numeric key pad. If the
frequency entered is not within band limits or not on proper channel
spacing, the frequency will automatically be changed to the closest valid
channel.
RX Frequency
– Enter the desired receive frequency.
TX PL
– Enter the desired transmit PL tone frequency. After the last digit is
pressed the radio will verify that it is a valid frequency and flash the first
cursor again. Press ‘OK’ at this time. The transceiver supports all standard
PL tones. (Also known as CTCSS tones) TXPL tones are generally used to
open repeaters or in talk groups where the receivers are squelch protected
by PL tones. Enter ‘000.0’ for no tone. PL tones are used by analog mode
only.
RX PL
– Enter the desired receive PL tone frequency. Enter ‘000.0’ no tone –
carrier squelch operation.
TX DPL
– Enter the desired DPL code. You can not have both a PL and a DPL at the
same time. The one that is entered last will turn the other off. A DPL of
000 means off. DPL codes are also known as DCS codes.
RX DPL
– Enter the receive DPL code as above.
TX NAC
- Enter the desired transmit P25 NAC code if using digital, otherwise just
press ‘OK’. The code is hexadecimal therefore the letters A to F could also
be used. Press the ‘A-F’ soft key to use buttons 1-6 as A-F. A NAC or
Network Access Code is used like PL tones but are only used by P25
(digital) mode. A value of 293 is considered to be the standard code for
open channel.
RX NAC
– Enter the desired receive P25 NAC code as above.
RX TYPE
– Select the receive mode using the UP and DN keys – Analog, digital or
mixed. The mixed mode will allow the receiver to decode analog and P25
digital signals as needed.
TX TYPE
– This prompt will only come up if you selected mixed for RX. Select
analog or digital.
BANDWIDTH
– Select 12.5, 20.0 or 25.0 kHz using the UP and DN keys. Bandwidth
may also be called ‘Channel Spacing’.
CHANNEL
NAME
– Use the UP and DN keys to scroll to the desired letter and press the NXT
soft key to get to the next character. Press ‘OK’ when done. There will be
a delay while the channel is saved, then the display will return to normal.
