APX6000 power off channel change

Post by ai4ui »

Found an issue with our new APX portables. Since I'm the guy that made the template, I'm the guy that gets to find the solution...

If you change the channel on the radio when it is off via the channel dial when you turn it back on it powers up on the last channel it was on, not on the selected channel. Same for the A B C zone switch. Is this a template error or is it a firmware issue?

The numbers are:
Host R07.00.00
DSP R07.00.00
SEC R01.02.03
TUNE R01.10.00

Look in radio ergonomics, advanced, power up on last selected zone and channel

He's right, though. It's a CPS selection item.

Yep. I found it, now I get to fix it. I used the migrator tool and never even looked in that section. Default setting? I'm going to look around and see what else I've missed.
