XPR7550's in simplex mode (configuration options)

[michy]

We are getting four XPR7550, and want to set them up in simplex mode for now. We have two licenses (Canada) for one frequency but its for analog (we need to convert our licenses I assume if we use digital mode).

I was expecting to get the motorola reseller to do some basic programming for us at purchase time but wondered what we could configure if they are set to simplex (we probably won't use repeaters).

In simplex mode can we configure/enable:

1) both analog and digital channels?
2) them with basis or enhanced encryption (on digital channels)?
3) them with private/group(2 groups of two radios) calls
4) Radio check/monitor
5) set one radio up so it can enable/disable the other three radios.

We'll have access to the CPS software as well so we can modify the programming later if need be.

Thank you
Michelle

1- Yes, you can program analog and digital channels in the same zone.

2- Yes, you can choose basic or enhanced privacy.
Choose "enhanced" if you're going to enable any privacy.

3- Yes, the radios can do group calls (one to many) or private call (one to one).

4- Yes, you can enable radio check, disable/enable, and remote monitor.

5- Yes, program one radio with the above abilities.
