XTS 5000 FPP drop and drag help?

Post by dick33 »

Hello all, there appears to be a problem when I try to drop and drag a non-fpp radio into a fpp radio ? same band m/n and versioning. The funny thing is that I can drop and drag from the fpp radio into the non-fpp radio ? This is my first go around with fpp radios I am thinking it may be the fpp feature preventing this or am I missing something else. Thanks for help.

never been able to drag and drop TO an FPP radio, even two identical FPP codeplugs from the same radio (XTS5000 and XTS2500).

I think it is a limitation in the codeplug structure.

Q53 is preventing the drag & drop. You can drag & drop into a R09 Q52 FPP radio, but once Q53 is in the mix, it pretty much puts the handcuffs on the radio as far as what you can do.

If your radio has old firmware, programming it with the latest CPS will not add any new features unless you have the latest firmware to match..

CPS = Customer Programming Software, Not CPS Software.

Use the Channel Picklist, import and export. It will save you a lot of typing.
