Because I had such a hard time getting this done I am explaining it for those who are pulling their hair out
1- This applies to CPS 2.0 for Mototrbo Radios: XP7550 is my model
2-The issue is that zones are programmed but Setting is "Channel in all zones" in the General section, of the Control button menu folder, of the GENERAL folder
you attempt to use your zone button, and it does not work and the channel select knob cycles thru ALL channels regardless of zone.
3-The fix: in CPS, under the 'General' folder, find the "Control Buttons" subfolder, then click till the menu displays to the right of the file tree. Then under 'General' at the top of the page is the 'Numeric Keypad' setting, click the drop down menu and choose 'Channel in Home zone'
4-save and write to the radio
5-Your Zone button should bring up a list in the display you can use the arrow key to select the zone you want
6- My solution is for a xpr7550, other radios like the R7 and xpr355 may be different in thier display
Most solutions I searched for were for CPS16.
The 'Channel in all zones' setting will allow you to direct enter a channel number, so if you wish to set up channels by number this feature may be of use to you
