NX-5000 NXDN "Courtesy Tone"

[W6BAR]

Hi everyone,

I'm programming some NX-5000 portables for commercial use and have been asked about an audible PTT ID/ Roger beep/ courtesy tone that could be programmed into a specific channel so users know they're transmitting on that versus their main channel. For analog we have an obvious PTT ID that's audible that serves the purpose, but for the life of me I can't find any kind of similar feature in the programming software for specifically a NXDN digital channel.. Does anyone know if its hidden anywhere else or if it even exists?

Thanks!

It's a global setting, so if enabled, all channels of the type (either conventional or trunking or both) will have it.

Conventional:
Optional Features - Optional Features 2 - PTT Release Tone

Trunking:
Personal - Personal Features - NXDN Trunking - General - PTT Release Tone

Awesome, I will try this. Thank you!

This is a GLOBAL SETTING!
It sounds on any channel, it is not channel steered.
There is also Conventional PTT Chirp. That too, is also global and not per channel.

Do you know if there is an easy way to have the fleetsync IDs for the analog channel correspond to the NXDN digital chanel or do I need to transfer the list over?

You will have to paste that same info into the NXDN Individual list,
