I just went through this in another feed with a Motorola system. EDACS is modified as follows:
Storing known EDACS trunked frequencies
1. Press MANual, Press three digits to get the bank and channel number desired then press MANual again.
(Upper left should read Mxxx for your bank and channel number)
2. Navigate to channel 1 (not 0) using the Up/Down button.
3. Press PGM, (upper left should change from M to P)
4. Press TRUNK
5. Press MODE until EDACS is displayed.
6. Press PGM
7. Enter the frequency
8. Press Enter
9. If text is desired for the freq, Press TEXT. Use the numbered keys and text in up to 16 characters.
10. Press Enter
11. Repeat steps 6 through 10 until all frequencies and text (if used) are entered in selected bank. If text are not used, skip step 9 and 10.
Note: Your EDACS system should be channel 1 through channel 8
Storing known Talkgroup ID’s (in the same bank)
1. Press PGM
2. Press TRUNK
3. Enter the 4 digit DEC EDACS Id number (if AFS is used, use the (.) for the dash)
4. Press ENTER
5. Press TEXT
6. Using numbered keys, text in up to 16 characters.
7. Press ENTER
8. Press Up button
9. Repeat steps 3 through 8 until all are entered.
A 25 dollar cable from Radio Shack (20-047) and Win97 (also 25 bucks) from
