I have an XTS2500 ver B with a GPS RSM. I know the GPS/Channel change RSM is compatible with the 2500, but for the life of me I cannot get the RSM to function. It does work on another 2500 and I swapped the case on the 2500 in question and it still won't work. Am I missing something? Could the radio...

I have a GTR8000 that I'm looking to key using E&M (via an NXU2A). I have the GTR Base radio manual and the replacement guide as well but they leave me scratching my head a bit. Essentially I will use the provided system connector/wireline cable connected to a 66 block and from there I will make...

I have a dash mount CDM1550 that seems to be having some issues. - Radio will only power up with the ignition sense, CPS is set for "ON/OFF & Ignition". Shouldn't I be able to power it up now without the ignition sense cable? - Control head has 0 backlighting. CPS is set for High inten...

Has anyone used the APX travel charger (RLN6434). I have the occasional need to charge a battery, but not enough to install a drop in charger.

Does the charger maintain the batteries' fuel gauge and # of times charged?

Thanks!

How does one detect if you have a development radio?

David

pluto1914

Were you able to find out how to get the PTT on the accessory connector? I have a similar project coming up.

David

pluto1914

I was in a mobile EOC and I saw they were using the MC1000 L3213AC. I asked further and found that they were using it as local control not tone. Anyone seen the before or how its possible?

Thanks.

David

pluto1914

I did this already. Only exception i mine is a remote mount. Let me know if you still need the info.

pluto1914

If your interested in parting ways with a UHF VRS750 I am interested!

pluto1914

OK. I did as suggested and I haven't had a problem since. Thank you Rob for your insight. I have shared this information with other in our Fire District as we all have the same radio.

David

Thats the idea and the radio, L3276 and remote are all under one roof. We only use two frequencies in the radio, repeated and simplex. But if you toggle through the channels on the radio they are in there more than once.

pluto1914

Um....If memory serves me it is "Base Interface Package".

pluto1914

So if I cannot determine the noise I could trick the radio by programming the primary channels in the unused channel slots? **Strike that...I just checked the code plug and that has already been done. I put a ferrite coil on the phone line coming into the radio to see if that fixes the problem. David

We have low band BIP with a Motorola tone remote adapter (L3276). Every so often the CDM1250 in the cabinet comes up and says unprogrammed. When I power cycle the tone remote adapter the radio recovers and returns to normal. I had originally thought it was the console it was attached to but when I d...

pluto1914

Awesome. I'm going to start my search. Is there any firmware issues that you know of between the XTL and the VRS750?

pluto1914

So my only hope at obtaining one of these is here on eBay.

Is the integration as easy as plug and play with an XTL5000?

pluto1914

What does Motorola make that is comparable to the VRS750?

pluto1914

Anyone know what the list price is on a Motorola VRS for an XTL5000?

Thanks,

I have one console without the audio delay on the tone board and it works fine but the audio is clipped becasue they cannot wait to talk.

On the consoles that have the tone board with audio delay, if I disable the Mic Bus delay the noise goes away. It's very strange and annoying.

David

pluto1914

We ave a few Zetron 4010 in our dispatch center. We recently added a new tone remote board with audio delay. Since setting the audio delay to .5 seconds there is a noticeble hum whenever the the PTT button is depressed. Its not the wiring to the console or the mic as we have disconnected both. The c...

I have an XTL5000 with a flash code of 580208-001C80-9 and in that is G182 Radio Control Protocol. I am trying to add S/W BAsed ADP to this radio and I'm being told by my vendor that Motorola says that this radio cannot have G182 in it so it must not be an XTL5000???? I figured I would ask here and ...

pluto1914

So it is confirmed. You do need the "H869 Enable Multikey" option flashed into the APX inorder to support multiple keys even for software based ADP. This is unlike the XTS/XTL series of radios that this was not necessary for software based ADP. Seems to me that Motorola should do a better ...

pluto1914

I called Motorola today and they believe that I will need Multikey added even for ADP. I passed this onto my Motorola Rep so I will be awaiting what he says. As for the Error 15/10. I had enabled "External Accessory Enable" under Radio Ergonomics Wide/Advanced. I was under the impression t...

pluto1914

Hmm...good idea.

I have to call Motorola Support I guess. I also get a FAIL 15/10 when the radio powers up.

David

I received an APX6000 today. I am trying to programing in a few ADP keys.

According to the help "Up to 64 encryption keys are possible". I am only able to add one key, the plus sign is grayed out.

Anyone else encounter this?

David

pluto1914

I have an EX600XLS Model:AAH38SDH9DU6AN

I am curious if this radio is capable of being setup to like a Minitor pager so that it could alert to QC tones.

Thanks.

David

I have an XTL5000 and I have a channel I do not want to be scanned. This channel is designed for special operations only and they should only be on the channel when instructed to do so.

Can the radio do this?

David

pluto1914

Does any of this affect a dash mounted XTL? I have an older one that I want to upgrade the control head on.

David

pluto1914

I hope this helps. I have an XTL5000 with 2 O5 control heads installed as a base station. They are both on 115ft control head cables and both come from the radio itself. The heads are powered by independent power supplies. Now the catch. This radio was purchased over a year ago and had to go back to...

True. a Fluke meter will do the job, but sometimes if you tell a telco tech (at least one that's been around a few years, and is not just a green button-pusher) that you've used a TIMS, and a particular model, it might enhance your credibility; Also, a Fluke DMM doesn't have a way to 'bridge' or 't...

I tried a BK meter that I have here and it did ok... I think I'm looking for something more designed exactly for what I am trying to do.

I'm looking for a portable meter that would allow me to determine the frequency of a pilot tone generator as well as it's strength. Thanks!

Sounds good. I have looked at the CTI soluion before. I'm exploring upgrades to our infrastructure and one of the items on my list is remote comparator control.

I'm looking to see if the AstroTac comparator comes with any type of remote control capabilities from Motorola?

I'm trying this from both angles. I have two portables. One is a M3 XTS2500 (encoder) and the other is a M3 XTS5000 (decoder). I'm looking to try and stun a radio.

I am being told by a local vendor that I can use a full keypad portable radio to take advantage of the "Selective Radio Inhibit" feature if programmed properly. I cannot find this option. Can anyone offer any insight?

David

Maybe I have another problem. I tend to leave the radio with the scan mode on. When I take it out of scan it will not unmute when the channel becomes active. The activity light comes on and the MDC decodes on the screen, but there is no audio. David This is something different. Check your personali...

I wound up pulling the radio out of the trunk and connecting it up in a car that has an O5 control head. Not the preferred method of course, but it worked. In the mean time I will be looking for the correct programming cable.

Thanks.

David

pluto1914

I tried un plugging the O3 control head and I still couldn't read the radio. I tried unplugging the 25 pin accessory cable and I still couldn't read the radio.

Any other thoughts?

I'll take a stab at it on Monday and let you know! Thanks again!

You will not be able to use the CGAI USB programming cable with that setup. You will need to switch to Serial CGAI, or utilise the rear accessory connector Serial/USB programming/data cable.

This is something different. Check your personality and under the "MDC" tab and make sure that the logic is set to OR instead of AND. It defaults to AND but should be the opposite. As for the firmware, I have to do a compare and identify if it is a confirmed bug. Essentially, I have to pro...

Where I am only going to have one MC1000 in the building I guess I won't need the J Box.

It will be connected to an XTL5000 high power. Assuming I want to use the 25 pin connector on the transeiver what pins would I need to use?

David

Ok, I was looking at the documentation from Motorola. See th below URL and they mention a junction box for local control.
