MCS2000 Flashcode question

Post by MP 6.7 »

I'm looking at an MCS2000 that has a 000008-000000-2 flashcode which translates to H38/G51 Smartzone Operation. This might be a dumb question, but I never have definitively heard or read an answer. Will it do conventional as well, or is it confined to trunking only?

Yes, you can program and use conventional channels.

Cool, thanks! I have one that has a 000001-000000-9 flashcode which is conventional only. Wasn't sure if the flashcode had to say conventional to do conventional, kind of like the firmware in an old trunking Maxtrac.
