NX5K Muted at powerup

[tweiss3]

Firmware 5.00. All audio is muted until any button is pressed. This happens on 5200 & 5300 as well as the KCH-19 5700/5800 in the car. I thought it was related to power down while scan was running, but I've paid enough attention that its not related to scan at all. I can power on in the morning, and watch the receive light come on and off, but no audio until I hit any button.

Is this normal operation, or is there a setting I am missing?

upgrade to 5.10 FPU and FW.

Retest and post your results

* 5.00 had this issue, and has been corrected with 5.01 and newer

Confirmed, bug is no longer present in 5.10

That was an easy one, if I would have remembered to do the codeplug backup via bluetooth instead of the cable. Was also a good opportunity to change the few things I've been putting off because I just didn't want to drag a laptop to the car.

Well, I'm still having the issue.

Last night, tested a few times while there was a net going on, and it started up and the net was unmuted on startup.

This morning, turned on the car, see its receiving transmissions, but nothing. Hit any button, it unmutes. I double checked firmware by holding volume up at power up, still indicates 5.10.00. I also turned the radio off and on a few times, no change, still powers up muted. Any other ideas @kd4efm, I can live with it, but I thought if I could fix it, then I would.

I did reprogram with D1N 5.10 as well.

I've had this problem forever, the speaker only kicks on once I hit a button. I've experimented with all speaker options in KPG, but nothing has changed it. Any help would be great.

Good to know I'm not the only one. Curious, do you have ignition sense enabled at all?

I don't think so. But when I turn on my power supply at home, or hit my switched relay they come on anyway.

Email me your codeplug, and a small write up so I can send this in to tech support for review.
That is a stump'r to me, but then again, I dont run dmr but on my nx3300.

 

[tweiss3]

Ok, I will email you. Do you want the combined OTA file, or separate deck files?

This is happening over analog.

separate files. Make that note as well in the write up.

 

[tweiss3]

Email sent.

Got it, sent in for review, Thanks Thomas.

Has to be a setting somewhere. We've got thousands of those out in the field and we've never seen that. Only a few DMR, but everything else.
Weird...
