• To anyone looking to acquire commercial radio programming software:

    Please do not make requests for copies of radio programming software which is sold (or was sold) by the manufacturer for any monetary value. All requests will be deleted and a forum infraction issued. Making a request such as this is attempting to engage in software piracy and this forum cannot be involved or associated with this activity. The same goes for any private transaction via Private Message. Even if you attempt to engage in this activity in PM's we will still enforce the forum rules. Your PM's are not private and the administration has the right to read them if there's a hint to criminal activity.

    If you are having trouble legally obtaining software please state so. We do not want any hurt feelings when your vague post is mistaken for a free request. It is YOUR responsibility to properly word your request.

    To obtain Motorola software see the Sticky in the Motorola forum.

    The various other vendors often permit their dealers to sell the software online (i.e., Kenwood). Please use Google or some other search engine to find a dealer that sells the software. Typically each series or individual radio requires its own software package. Often the Kenwood software is less than $100 so don't be a cheapskate; just purchase it.

    For M/A Com/Harris/GE, etc: there are two software packages that program all current and past radios. One package is for conventional programming and the other for trunked programming. The trunked package is in upwards of $2,500. The conventional package is more reasonable though is still several hundred dollars. The benefit is you do not need multiple versions for each radio (unlike Motorola).

    This is a large and very visible forum. We cannot jeopardize the ability to provide the RadioReference services by allowing this activity to occur. Please respect this.

I am trying to activate Dynamic Mixed Mode in Mototrbo System. I have Motorola DR3000 repeater, I have more Mototrbo radios DP4800 and more GB300 series and GM series. In fact I tried to configure them by choosing a Dynamic Mixed Mode in the repeater and I configure digital channel and even analog channel on them and when I try to PTT in digital I hear tone as it is busy and on analog I hear voice not clear. Is there anyone can help me in this, please?
In another way, I heared that they use a DM4400 interfaced with the repeater by pins cable. Which way is the true and how step by step, please?
Many thanks

I have an xpr8400 (which looks similar to the DR3000) in mixed mode. I assume you already have only 1 channel setup on the repeater, and its 'dynamic mixed mode'? Make sure the color code matches on the radio and repeater. Is it a busy signal, or is it indicating it did not connect to the repeater?

Many thanks dear brother
I have only one channel setup on the repeater as ''Dynamic Mixed Mode''. For the color code, it's the same on the radios and the repeater.
It isn't a busy signal, but it's a contineous tone as it indicate that there is no connect with the repeater whereas the repeater signalizes the two slots together for the digital and the analog signal disappears.
In analog channel, when press PTT on the radio, there is a connect but the other radio doesn't receive a call but when left PTT I hear noise in the two radios. Where is the problem? and is this feature ''Dynamic Mixed Mode'' must be available in the radios the same as the repeater? or I just have to add two channels (one digtal and one analog). In radios, this feature isn't even available for purchase to activate it whereas I have FW version R02.09.

best regards

make sure you assigned a group id to the contact name under where you entered the transmit information for your digital channel. And its best to test with 2 people so the radios your using to test aren't right next to each other, sometimes the receiving radio will be unable to hear to repeater due to being too close to the transmitting radio

Thank you dear brother
Sure I did a group ID to the contact name and chose it in digital channel contact name.
For the nearness of the transmitter radio and the receiver radio, I don't think it's a problem coz I don't face any problem in digital only mode and in IP site connect but I'll try it.
As I read that in ''Dynamic Mixed Mode'' we can do three channels two digital each one in a slot and one analog. Is this configuration in this mode experienced successfully? And what are specific additional parameters configuration that should be added to make it successful?

I hope to get a help in this.
Best regards

Well.....technically, yes, but it is not 3 channels like you might be thinking it is. DMM cannot repeat digital and analog at the same time. So when an analog signal comes in, digital will not work. When digital signals come in, analog will not work.

You can have 2 digital signals repeat simultaneously. You can have 1 analog signal repeat. You can't have both. So if you believe that you are going to have 3 channels to use whenever you like, that is incorrect.

In fact I know that DMM can't repeat digital and analog at the same time. What I don't know is that why it doesn't work with me. Is there any additional parameters I have to set up?

Not really. It's pretty easy and straight-forward to set up. Do you have a screenshot of the CPS showing how you have things configured?
