Motorola APX control head change

[Fire125]

I did a search here and nothing came up, wondering if anyone has a video or guide on how to physically change from remote config to O2 control head (APX6500). CPS part is all taken care of.

If you've already applied everything in your codeplug and mapped buttons over...you just swap the heads at the brick. Catch 22 is if you are using a high power brick, you need to make sure your control cable has a ignition sense setup on it.

So the radio is currently config for O5 remote head. We are ordering an O2, ive just never switched a head out! Just didnt want to start messing with it before asking someone.basically swapping the head at the brick is what im asking help for

It's fairly simple. In CPS you can actually go ahead and map buttons for different control heads regardless of the head that is actually installed. Then you just swap them when you are ready. If you have audio and ignition sense coming from the brick instead of the breakout cable on the back of the O5 you just continue to use what is plugged into the brick when you swap the head.
