Got a new G5 a week ago. Programmed a p25 system into z1/p1 every time I program my town police into z1/p2 it unprograms z1/p1, what am I doing wrong?
If I program z1/p1 then program z1/p2 l will lose z1/p1 on my radio z1/p1 will read unprogrammed. I'm using 2 different profiles. Am I correct in saying that u have to set up a new profile for every zone?
Tks. Troy deleted 1 profile and put my town on profile #1, it's working well. Hate to be a pain in the butt, but on p1-z1 l have my screen set up so it reads zone 1- waterbury in standby mode, then when transmitting it reads Wby PD disp. Etc. this is a trunked system. On z1-p2 it reads zone 1-Naugatuck in standby mode but when they transmit it just says (to 1) Is there anyway I can make it read Npd disp. This is a p25 conventional channel.
One thing I learned the hard way, is not to use the TG monitoring, it will monitor EVERY TG on ALL the systems when you select the channel with it set. I wanted to search for some additional TGIDs on one system so I set that zone/channel to monitor and when I turn to that position, I get all the encrypted channels on all the other systems.
I suspect - just like with scanners - you don't need to do anything at all differently regardless of if the talkgroup is Phase 1 or Phase 2. Generally, unless setup by the system admins to be "fixed" as P1 or P2, a talkgroup could be either at various times.i programmed my county and the neighboring county we run M/A to into a profile for the G5.i dont own one yet but will be buying soon. They are both phase 2 systems wich i know are not supported yet, hopefully in a few months. My question is(hypothetically i know) does anyone think i can use this profile setup and hopefully just change the system setting to phase 2 or do u think i will need an entirely new codeplug? i know none of the answers are going to be absolutely right unless someone from unication is roaming around, just looking for some previous users opinions.
I'd be happy to take a look. Post it.Also anyone with experience programming these to be strictly scanners be willing to look at what i have programmed so far to tell me if i did it correctly?
Troymail, I need to really retract my earlier post. I made a programming error for the one channel I set to monitor TG's.
I forgot to change the system from the first (which seems to be the default) to the system I wanted to monitor TG's. So I thought I was getting TG's from ALL the systems I had programmed in.
Basically in the 'knob-trunking system setting' window I didn't change the 'system' in the drop down.
My excuse, I'd only had the G5 for two days and was still figuring out the PPS and made a dumb error.
With the G5 is only the 700-800 band digital and able to trunk p25 systems, when looking at the pager to purchase it says “select analog band” them gives u VHF or UHF options. My home system is a 700-800 p25 system but the other system I want to program is a p25 500 digital system
