3.2PROGRAMMING A BASIC 16-CHANNEL MT2000 CONVENTIONAL RADIO

In this tutorial, we list the desired features, address the major decisions involved, and give step-by-step instructions for programming the 16-channel conventional portable radio.

3.2.1Desired Features

Let's assume the following features are desired:

16 Transmit/Receive Frequencies

Private Line/Digital Private Line (TPL/DPL) Codes

Assign Scan to the concentric switch and create two scan lists.

Enable Telephone Operation (for full keypad models only)

We will assume that factory defaults are suitable for most parameter values.

3.2.2Major Decisions Involved

To program the desired features above, the approach with the RSS will be:

1.Determine desired number of personalities (channels) desired.

2.Determine desired feature systems to use (basic, scan, signalling).

3.Determine desired features to program radio-wide (all channels).

4.Determine desired features to program per-personalities (individual channels only).

3.2.3High Level Programming Flow

The overview of the flow of programming in this example is as follows:

1.Read the radio.

2.Assign button/switch functions that differ from factory defaults.

3.Create a second scan list (list members not filled in at this time).

4.Set up the phone number list.

5.Create/configure Conventional personalities.

6.Assign personalities to switch positions on Zone/Channel screen.

7.Fill in scan lists with the desired zone/channel entries.

8.Program the radio.

This programming flow was chosen because it minimizes navigation between screens.

3.2.4Step-by-Step Specific Programming Instructions

We have designed a sample chart (Page 3-3) for a conventional radio for recording the features you wish to program into your radio. See Appendix E for a blank form you can use for future conventional radios.
