Throughout the balance of this manual you will see a designation such as MELC on the same line as a heading. This means that the section, in this example, applies to Motorola, EDACS, LTR, and Conventional systems.

Specifying the Correct System Type

In order for trunk tracking to work properly, you have to specify the correct system type when you create the system. Here are some tips for selecting the correct type:

Use online resources, such as the www.radioreference.com database, to identify the system type.

Even though a system has digital channels, it is not necessarily a P25 system. To be P25, the system type must be described as Project 25 (there are many Motorola 800 Standard systems that have some digital channels.

These should be entered as Motorola 800 Standard and not P25).

EDACS Wide is the same as EDAC Standard.

EDACS Networked sites are EDACS Narrow
