XPR 7550 Digital Private Call Contact Programming

[theevanleatherman]

Hello! I recently got a new XPR 7550 to go along with my current one. I was programming the other one and cloning it when I FINALLY got the radios to initiate a private call to each other when I pressed the PTT button on a digital channel. I went into CPS and messed up the programming by switching the contacts from one radio to the other. I have no idea how to fix it now.

I have two different contacts both with a Private Call under the Digital dropdown.

What I require: When one contact on one radio presses the PTT button, a private call is initiated to talk to the other contact on the other radio.

I am NOT looking for a programmer to hire for $9,918,827 an hour, just some quick simple help or an explanation from one radio enthusiast to another.

(The attached files below are the 2 contacts I have in CPS)

-Thanks, Evan Leatherman

Ah, you violated rule number ONE in programing! ALWAYS make a copy of the codeplug before making any changes, even little ones

Apologies in advance for peppering the forum with questions, but I am having a related problem. I can initiate a call from radio one to radio two, but not the other way round. I am guessing that I'm missing a contact or radio ID, but I'm far from certain.

I looked at this again, and both radios have a group list named "Call 1" whioh is a group call. Still, I can initiate a call to that from one radio, and not the other. I added a contact to the radio that CANNOT initiate a group call. This contact is a private call to the second radio, and it appears that this radio CAN initiate to the private contact, but I have to select it from the contact list.
