Pro 107 Not receiving Edacs

[Droid53]

Has anyone having problems with their Pro-107 with recieving Edacs trunking groups? I downloaded the data base in the playlist for Brevard County and I'm not recieving any groups. The only thing I recieve is the few conventional channels I put in. Any feedback on this would be appreciated.

Thanks

You need to place the frequencies in the proper LCN (Logical Channel Number) scheme. In other words, if a system starts with LCN 05, start entering the data in channel 05 of a bank and so on. If a transmission is a digital transmission, you may not hear it. You may want to ask this in the Florida Forum.

I'm importing the Library from the RR database. I don't see anywhere in the software where you can set up the Frequencies for the proper postion for Edacs.

Other then LCN mentioned by N1BHH, insure you mapped the talkgroups to a scanlist and have that list toggled to ON.

What I'm confused about is...Wouldn't the RR Library have the Edacs Rebanding up to date. What I'm doing is get the Edacs groups from the RR Library and uploading to the scanner. I don't really see in the software where I can set up the LCN in Logical order. Maybe I missing something. I wish there was Win software for this scanner.

RR Database is only updated when a user in the area submits data for the update. Thus, rebanding is a solution for users in your area.

Most software should list LCN's as listed in Database, however, EDACS systems must use each sites LCN's in separate TSYS but TGRP Objects can share same scanlist number. Each TSYS will need it's own TGRP Objects.


Edit:Oops, yours is a 107 not 197. Do you even need software for this scanner?

Yes, There's talk groups in my aera that are not in the RR database.

EDACS works great in the radio, it must be something wrong on your end or in the DB Make sure you are importing sites as well as groups or the system will not import at all. Did you check out the video in the sticky I referred you to earlier?

Under the "General" tab, Display Settings, turn Simple Display OFF. You will now see a trunking tab where you can manually create and edit trunked systems.

How about submitting them so others can benefit from this? Problem solved

If they are sensitive groups I wouldn't post them.

No problem, I also recommend reading the quick start guide that came with the radio, if you haven't already done so.

If they are sensitive groups I wouldn't post them.

There is no such policy on Radio Reference.

With the help of everyone...I finally figured out on how to program this scanner.

Thank you all for your kind help.

Glad to hear you got it worked out. I'm still considering the purchase of a 107...

In the RS supplied software with the 107, there is a Systems Frequencies tab that will allow you to see what they are and the order that they are in similar to what is in WIN500. Not sure you can do that on the radio itself. When you selected the System it should have imported them in the correct order.

Wow, picky picky! I didn't say posting sensitive talkgroups was against RR policy, did I? But I did say "if it's a sensitive talk group I wouldn't post it." So where's the wrong in that statement? Are we jumping to conclusions prematurely now? Are you done twisting my words around now?

Oh gee, this is going to get me a demerit or something, isn't it?

Seriously, grow up. I wanted to make clear to everyone reading that one person's paranoia about "sensitive" information being in the DB doesn't mean there is a policy against the posting of such information, and thus, one not to be discouraged to submit such info to the DB.
