Programming Talkgroups Pro-92

[scannerhead3]

can anyone explain to me how to program talkgroups into the pro-92. Especially EDACS and LTR types. I looked at the manual but hopefully someone can explain it a little better. THANKS

First get Win92 from Don Starr, it is free and you use the same cable (RS# 20-289) for 92/2067/93/2053/95/96/2096. Then just plug in the nubers into the right box and you will be set.

If you don't have a cable yet, use the attached shortcut.

Don Starr is the maker of the Win 9X series, the best software for all of the Pro-9X Radioshack scanners.

It depends on what cable you have.

If it has a male mono plug on each end, then it is a cloning cable and used only for cloning one scanner to another.

If it has a male mono plug on one end and a 9 pin serial plug on the other, then it might work providing it is this Radio Shack or Scanners Cables.com or BlackBag or GRE. This Radio Shack cable is not for this scanner.

i got the cord and everything works so thats good and i went and put in some freqs that are in LTR mode (ex. 0-05-048) but when i hit scan the scanner doesn't think there are any freqs in that bank. ANY IDEAS???

Freqs are in this format: xxx.xxxx.
Make sure they are on the left side of Win92 under freqs.


x-xx-xxx are talkgroup ID format.
Make sure they are on the right side of Win92 under Talkgroups

 

[scannerhead3]

yes i put them in on the right side but the scanner doesn't recognize them because it doesn't scan that bank

You've said this twice, if not scanning...what is it doing? Did you check LTR for each of the freqs and the bank as well in Win92?
