GP 380 Programing

[N2SWD]

I am using the motorola programing software from Hong Kong, and I need an idiots guide to setting up scan lists and removing squelch tails.I have tried setting up scan lists but I keep getting errors.I need some one to walk me through this.

1) Create a scan list under the scan menu

2) Add that scan list to every personality in its respective 'scan' tab.

3) Put the personalities in a zone

4) Go into the scan list's config and add that channels you want scanned to the scan list.

As for squelch tail elimination stuff, you must know the PLs used, if any, and program them into the RX side.

If they use non-Motorola radios and you still get the squelch crash after transmissions, there's a tab in the personality for "non standard reverse burst"

Since you have the software and cable, trial and error is a fine method of learning the software. Nobody gave me a manual for RSS or CPS. It's not all that hard to figure out unless it's no in English.

I have my scan bank set up but everytime it switches to a scanning frequency and then back to the original frequency selected the radio beeps. How do I get that to stop from occurring each time?

I bought a GP380 on eBay from a Hong Kong merchant. I'm am trying to install the programming software that came with the GP380, but the .rar file will not unpack / install on 2 different machines running Windows XP. I found a Windows Moto software package which starts to read the radio, but but it chokes, saying Codeplug version not supported so I suppose it is the wrong version.

If some has the programming software that came with a radio purchased in Hong Kong, I'd appreciate it if you could post/email a copy to me.

Thanks.

Hmm... not too many responses. Issue resolved by seller.

please share

can you post or e-mail me the resolution to our issue of getting the program to read the radio. i'm using the software and cord provided by the seller from hong kong too.
software runs fine but i can't get it to communicate with the radio.
it wants to use a Com port and i have a USB cable

I think that the seller emailed or sent me the software that was not a .rar package - which resolved the issue. The USB has a com port associated with it. Depending upon what version of Windows that you use, you can edit the USB com port using Device Manager.

I'm using XP home.
any ideas how and where in device manager this can be done?

 

[fairjon]

can you send me that file???
