G-Series Trunking Free Scan Beta Test II

[kruser]

Does the link to the beta 1.3 with Free scan Includes the PPS update or the FW imbedded ?
Regards,

The first beta was also ver 1.4 but possibly an earlier sub-version from what beta II will include.

Yes, the email contained separate links to the PPS and the Free Scan firmware. While I can't say for sure but I'd suspect this beta will be the same.

See this post.

Omitting the Delay N timer did work for me but David at Unication may be able to help you more.

David actually had my file and tried tweaking it, still no luck, only thing I can think of is that my stacked tone pair is the same two tone pair coming one after the other, maybe the pager sees that it already alerted to that 2 tone pair so it doesn’t recognize it till it’s reset, but I need it to alert on both of them

How long is the normal wait time to get the email from Unication after submitting the form for Beta 1.4?

Are we talking days or talking weeks?

per jordans post
Plan to release beta test firmware around end of May, we are busy to fixed the issues which we found on last version

I have read that the upcoming firmware 1.30 will include a TG hold and resume, is there a list of other new features it will include?
I want to know because it will help me decide whether to go with trunking freescan or stay with normal firmware.

Steve outlined the entire features by FW on the #1 message here .

thank you

Post #1 shows all the changes using the 1.40 freescan update. My question is about the Normal 1.30 firmware
I am looking for the new features in the 1.30 firmware ONLY.

This is a clear case of Version Confusion!

I do everything its ask me to do, and everytime I try to register and upload my code plug it gives me this message

Hello,

Sorry for any inconvenience caused. You can email all your information (including the PPS profile you want to upload) to me and I will upload them to the Unication server manually on my side. Email: steve_chen@uni.com.tw

Thanks,
Steve

Hi Steve-
Just successfully registered for the Beta. I'm a new user and with the help of all of the great folks on this forum, I am learning more and more everyday about my G5. I now have it programmed correctly to start. I am hearing transmissions. I will be tweaking my program over time to add more and more information. Thanks to all and can't wait for the Beta. I plan to use my G5 as a scanner.

How long after we register for the beta do we get the beta software, I was under the impression that we could download it almost immediately after submitting an application.

They have not sent out the link yet from my understanding. I believe they will do it in a batch. They were talking the end of May sometime once they fixed some issues from the last beta test.

They fixing the current errors previously noted before releasing the next test

Any word when the beta firmware will be mass emailed? June 2 now

Any word when the beta firmware will be mass emailed? June 2 now

I was wondering the same thing, they said by end of may but they are trying to fix issues that were brought to light by the first set of beta testers, unication stopped giving timelines I thought due to ppl wanting to skin them for not making those deadlines

 

[bkramm]

Please give them the time necessary. I have dealt with software/firmware and sometimes when you fix 1 thing
it breaks something else. I have found on the other hand the consumer will find things that the programmer
never even thought of. Just need patience.

Hello,

We're getting more and more customers to require re-open the Trunking Free Scan Beta Test again in the past few weeks. Therefore, after discussion in the internal meeting, to show Unication's gratitude to your long-term support to Unication, we decide to re-open the Trunking Free Scan Beta Test for you guys.

This time everyone can apply to the beta test qualification but with one condition. Unication would like to gather your PPS profile for the researching purpose.
Actually, we're building a PPS Sharing Center Platform (like the PPS profile database.) This is the nonprofit platform and we hope all the Unication users can help each other on it. By sharing the PPS profile to each other, everyone can benefit from it.

So, if you're willing to share the PPS profile to the platform, Unication will provide you the V1.40 beta firmware (as the same, the update will lock to your S/N)
Please be noted that your PPS profile information will be shared with others, so before you upload the file, please delete the private setting and keep the other setting.

Trunking Free Scan Beta Test Application Page: Unication Codeplug Sharing System
1. Click the page link above.
2. Select "Trunking Free Scan Beta Test Registration" to apply the qualification.
3. If you're not interested in the 1.40 beta test but want to share your PPS profile with others, you can select "Profile Sharing Center User Upload."

1.40 Beta Software Release Note

In the voice call receiving mode, users can change the talk group ID receiving setting of the current knob by operating the pager’s hard-key. Users can keep listening to the voice message of the current TGID broadcasting until the users Un-Hold the TGID or turn the knob to another knob.
2. Allow the pager to have the “temporary remove” function of the talk group ID in the Trunking Multi-TG Scan receiving mode. In the voice call receiving mode, users can change the talk group ID receiving setting of the current knob by operating the pager’s hard-key. Users can temporarily remove the TGID that us listening to from the original TGID list until the users Un-Hold the TGID or turn the knob to another knob.
3. Added the Trunking Free Scan mode to the pager’s receiving mode. When the knob is set to Trunking Free Scan mode, the pager supports the “All band scan” and “Trunking Multi-System Scan” mode.
4. Added the new function that the users can set and display the alias of the dispatch ID or the alias of other sending devices.
5. Added the Trunking Free Scan mode to the pager’s receiving mode. When the knob is set to Trunking Free Scan mode, the pager supports the “Talk Group ID Scan Delay Time” function.
6. Added the Trunking Free Scan mode to the pager’s receiving mode. When the knob is set to Trunking Free Scan mode and the pager is under Trunking Multi-System scan mode, the pager supports the “Site Stay Delay Time” function
7. Added the Trunking Free Scan mode to the pager’s receiving mode. When the knob is set to Trunking Free Scan mode, the users can change the original function of the “RESET” key on the side of the pager to the “TG-Hold” key function and change the original function of the “Playback” key on the top of the pager to the “TG-Block/Remove” key function.

Caution! Please read the items below before you upgrade your G-series voice pager to the V1.40 Free Scan Beta version.

• Once you upgrade to the V1.40 Free Scan Beta version, you CAN NOT downgrade to V1.30, V1.20, or older firmware version.
• This V1.40 Free Scan Beta version has included all the improvements and updates in the official V1.30 firmware that is going to be released in several weeks.
• Trunking Free Scan feature only exists in the V1.40 Free Scan Beta version. The coming regular V1.30, 1.40, and even 1.50 will not include the free scan feature.
• Unication will constantly update the V1.40 Free Scan Beta version if there occur any issues in the future.
• If the users do not want to have the free scan feature in their pager anymore, they have to wait until V1.50 to update their voice pager.

Thank you and please let me know below if you have any questions.

I uploaded a profile yesterday and signed up at the same time. Now that the end of June is rapidly approaching I’m hoping that I’ll get a link to the beta 1.4 soon. Also signed up for the Facebook beta testers group at the same time, fingers crossed.
