Has anyone heard of a way to put a remote (using an external adapter) on a MOTOTRBO repeater running digital.
I suspect it is a no go at this time, but I was wondering if anyone has seen it on a roadmap.
Remote control of MOTOTRBO repeater running digital

Re: Remote control of MOTOTRBO repeater running digital
You're correct. In the digital mode, the XPR8300 doesn't do anything but 'repeat' what it receives. There is no analog-to-digital interface in the repeater that can be accessed from the accessory port. So the only way to get remote control of the repeater is to do it over a network connection (with the repeater in IPSC mode).

TRBOnet lets you do a IPSC Remote and change talkgroups.

TRBOnet doesn't provide remote control of a repeater, only a control station (XPR-series mobile).
I believe Avnet may have the capability of interfacing their Scout IP-based console system into a TRBO repeater, at the IP level (IPSC mode). But, for a simple remote, that's probably way overkill (and quite expensive).
Another product, c-Bridge, has the capability of using a pc-based remote application to directly access/control a TRBO repeater over an IP connection (no control station needed).
