Help programming G5

[DPJennings]

Hi, I purchased a G5 to listen to our local PD dispatch. They use a Phase 25 system. I've tried to program but for some reason simply cannot figure it out.

The municipality is La Porte, Texas. They are on the TXWARN system. I've tried inputting from the database, I've tried importing from the database. I get nothing. I think that if I can get one system working, I'll be able to understand how to program this thing but for now, I'm stuck.

Any help appreciated. I think maybe I'm using the wrong tower? Dows that make sense?

Your a premium subscriber to this site. You can just download into the software.

That's what I did to program my G4 by downloading the trunking data right from database on this site.

Use site 03-003. Also be sure you are using hex where appropriate and decimal where appropriate.

Give this a try... it might need tweaking, but you should hear something. Download this file, and change the file name from .zip to .unipps--then you'll be able to import the file into your G5.

Good luck!

Please tell us specifically and step by step how have you programmed your G5 . This perhaps will tell us more .

Thank you, that did the trick.

Thanks. I tried to rename it but it still registers as a zip file. I'll keep trying, I would like to see how this feature works. For now using the 03-003 site is working.

Figured out how to change the extension properly and it worked great! Thanks!

Glad you're up and running... There are a few features that you might want to enable in the profile that I sent over: you'll likely want the ability to hold / temporarily silence specific TGIDs. To that end, you should tick these two boxes in the PPS--see below. Good luck!
