XPR 5550e

[firemedic01]

Hello all, my department is programming an XPR 5550e to alert specifically for our tones. At night, the radio is having to be reset each time by the outgoing apparatus. Is there a timer function that can be enacted to keep the radio from remaining on monitor?

i.e. The radio reverts back to alert after three minutes.

Thank you.

Thank you.
Another question, I tried programming the 2 buttons on the side with both combinations of short and long press and can't seem to get the scanning function to work. Is the LED supposed to flash differently when scanning or something, maybe it is working and I am not aware of it since there was not much chatter when I tested. The weird thing I saw in CPS, the radio buttons show as long button and no dot, round button, the accessory section show 4 buttons. I can't see both round buttons as an option. The one with the dot is not showing as a buttont to program. I was programming the radio buttons in my attempts. Thank you in advance!

2 buttons on side must be dealing with a portable radio now is there is no side buttons on 5550e.
From my 7550e in CPS:

Not sure if the configuration page is exactly the same, can't remember. But you can configure the side buttons on the dtmf mic when used with a 5550.

This is for 3300e. Does LED blink Orange when scan is on?

Well for starters this thread was about a 5550e until you brought along your 3300e issue.

There's a few things that go into making scan work and if you don't complete all of them, scan won't work. Firstly, scan usually is a short press button not a long press.
