Hmm, FPP? That would be nice. Not sure, didn't even think of to try that at all.. Well, after looking for feature I must give you a dissappontment, I did not find such feature on this item, maybe it is a missing EID entitlement or if it is even availabe at all..? Not sure about that one. Does an SL7...

I'm glad to announce the problem I wrote about is solved. First thing that I missed doing before anything was to read the device and look, what it says it is, instead of just looking at the label on the backside of the radio. Readind the radio made me to realize that the TANAPA type on this unit was...

So, I have got an SL7550 to my hands and I'm about to change its firmware version from AA version to EMEA version. This change is somewhat needed and useful, since all my other Motorola DMR-radios are EMEA, so the CPS is also EMEA version. It is still next to impossible to have two instanced of diff...

Well, the topic says it all. I'd like to get the part number for XTS2500 antenna connector. The connector is located at the RF-board. I tried to find the servoce manual first to find it myself, but - as one might guess - there is no manuals around available on the Internet to be viewed freely. The n...

Hello dear fellow Batlabbers, A while ago I purchased an XTS2500 to replace my XTS3000. However, I still do have a commander speaker microphone (aka monophone) RMN5023 w/o channel selector for the XTS3000. I found out that it does not work with XTS2500. Since the connector is quite similar and the m...

Hi all, im keen on purchasing an XTS3000 UHF 403-470 and was wondering what to look out for when buying one.

Hi all. I have a aftermarket ribless cable to use with my XTS3000, and a cable to use with a RIB.

Then I tried to solve the problem by uninstalling and re-installing the CPS but then it became unworking alltogether. oh2glg, Do you have any other CPS packages installed on this machine?

They're available from Farnell, for about $46 each. (Not $4.60, I mean forty-six dollars.) Yup, I concur that. Those are really expensive connectors.

Here's what I built on this weekend. I already had a ribless programming cable (kawarad or similar, from Ebay).

Hello all.

I tried to find from Batlabs site a drawing or schematic of a cable to connect KVL T3011DX to XTS3000, but for some reason I didn't find it.

Did such thing exist at all on the batlabs.com?

If someone here knows more about this cable it would help a lot.

What other purposes there are for the green color on the bi-colored led other than glowing during selftest?

I've also seen few of these radios with similar problems. Most of those have had either dirty or oxidated switch on the smaller (=mic) connector so it does not reconnect microphone path when lapel mic is disconnected.

Does the KVL prompt you for a KID immediately aftering a complete DES key? Aftering = after entering I believe? :) I checked 3011DX manual again and compared instructions to my KVL behaviour..

Well, CKR it was! After disabling it a few things changed. One thing remained same though, KVL still says "FAILED" when trying to load a test key into AS. Radio goes into KEYLOAD mode when KVL cable is connected, it didn't do even that when CKR was enabled.. Hmm. Correct me if I'm wrong, b...

Soft ID only works in the digital mode, and the best way to get it is thru your local Moto dealer. I think the option is fairly inexpensive. If you want to risk dumping in a loaded flashcode in it by other means, you could do that too. But, since the option is usually dirt cheap, I'd get it flashed...

Systems Sabers, like most trunking radios, don't use a battery save logic like the conventional only radios. Thus the battery life is shorter. Well, that explains it quite well.

As far as I know, model or serial number does not tell much anything about core version each saber is. Only way to tell for sure is to read the codeplug with RSS.
