XPR Selectable Encryption/Privacy Keys on XPR7550e

[dmason04]

Howdy,
I've set up a new XPR7550e and programed the Enhanced Privacy keys onto the radio. When I program a channel, I can only select one key. Is there a way to select a different key on the radio through the menu like the APX or ASTRO series or is this not a thing with MotoTRBO?

Are you talking on the radio or in CPS?

I just opened CPS16 and added 3 keys. Under a digital channel, you check Privacy and below is the dropdown of keys.

On the radio, I know about the dropdown but I was curious to see if the are selectable in the radio's menu like the APX series.

I've never done it on the radio.

Have you enabled "Dealer" for the Front Panel Password?

I do have it enabled but it doesn't show an option for key selection on the menu. I would assume this means it's not a thing on TRBO.

After doing some reading, it appears that Keys are not accessible at the radio level, can only be changed with CPS/RM or OTAP, and the radio user can only on/off privacy, not change between keys.

trbo is not like apx where the user can select encryption keys. they are strapped to the channel in question.

That sounds like something Motorola would make an APX only feature. Might have to just add the same channel with different keys if you want to switch.
