Hytera HP605 radio- a few questions

[g8tzl2004]

I have a Hytera HP605 DMR radio but I have not yet sorted out the programming lead (PC152) or software.

I've checked out the Hytera HP605 User Manual but its not that helpful!!

There are only 2 programable side keys on the HP605. Are these multi-function keys ie short press, long press, double press etc... so its possible to program a number of functions?

I want to be able to program:

- high/low power
- scan
- scan nuisance delete
- zone up/down
- squelch open/adjust (for analog)

Is it possible to program the above with only 2 programmable keys?

Is there a Menu Option as an addition or alternative to using programable keys?

How many alpha tag characters can fit in the OLED display... it can fit "Hytera"..so its at least 6? I guess 8 would be useful to fit in, say, "146.5200"

Is it possible to program a HP605 using Bluetooth rather than a programming cable and can this be enabled without initially switching it on using a programming cable? This was briefly mentioned on a HP605 You Tube video but I've seen no mention anywhere else.

Thanks

Yes they are programmable buttons for single and press and hold

See this section for firmware and CPS

HP682 Firmware Issue

Have two HP682 MB00DC-V1-0-B, and fully purchased CPS and Firmware through Atlantic each year or so. I got the latest FW file and updated all the applications and completed the first FW update fine. Second radio gave me an error about Bluetooth, and the update failed. Issue: That radio is...

Thanks for the link.

I'm wondering if I should avoid V3.0 CPS and firmware and maybe use V2.6 (or whatever) to avoid the issues mentioned in the link?

My HP605 is currently running F/W A2.4.02.007 so I guess V2.6 CPS should work OK?
