BKR 9000 Keypad mute

[Smokie493]

Just received my BKR 9000 radio and I am very impressed with it. All programmed up and works flawlessly. Is there a way to mute the keypad tones? No option in the software to add a mute button. Still scratchin' my head....

Thank you for your help...

Good morning Smokie, so under Config MENUs (top of the RES, Radio Menu Configuration, there is a KeyPad Mute that you must add to the Menu Items. See how that works. I've seen it, just never used it.

Thanks for asking this, it reminded me to add it to my configuration. (Still waiting on the radio to arrive however, how long did it take for you?)

Thank you for the answers. I looked and it's not in the menu items, Conventional or trucked. Listed as something else? I'm running software ver Version 5.8.28.

It took approx 180 days for me to receive the radio..

Give me a call 805-714-8875 but first update your software to 5.8.38

Problem solved with the help of Rick -rsmith7799!!!!

So to finish up on a question Smokie493 had, in Software 5.8.28 this option is not there. But in 5.8.38 it is in there.

That is correct..

Did some testing with this, running into an issue where if the keypad tones are muted, then you cannot change zones.

You can click "ZONE", scroll to what you want, click "ENT", but it won't change. The moment you click "MUTE" again, it will take effect and you will jump to the selected zone.

This bug was corrected in the 5.10.37 firmware, which doesn’t look like it was publicly released (I received direct from support after highlighting same issue). There is finally a new public release on their site (5.10.43) that you should try if you haven’t already, should fix the issue.

I just tested, and that resolves it! Thank you!
