| Post subject: | NEED HELP - Prob. entering data to WIN95 for PRO-95.... |
I am having a problem trying to enter some additional talk-group data into my WIN95 program for my RS Pro-95 and need some splanin' if someone can lend some smarts... I downloaded the WIN95 software and have the RS USB/scanner cables. And, I have been able to upload and download from the computer program to the scanner and back, but I am still having a problem when I try to enter some "new" TG data into the Program. After I enter the talkgroup a WIN95 window pops open that says: Bank 5 Talk Group 0-1 "TFD F4 Fire", Invalid ID, (3413) ID must be in range 0-2047 (0-7FF HEX) I for the life of me can not figure out what is going wrong. Can anyone help guide me? Thanks in advance. Keith in Renton |

What system are you trying to listen to? If it's a Motorola Type II system, valid talkgroups are divisible by 16. |

I BELIEVE that it is Motorola II (Des Monies, Auburn, Algona-Pacific, Enumclaw, etc) and I may have figured out that I did NOT have the "TYPE" switched from CONV to MOT at the top of the page. (SO, it seems to be accepting the TG's I am entering now). I guess I just don't know that much about "radios" and don't quit know what all of the tabs and boxes are for on the WIN95 program. Example: I don't know what the DEC - HEX - or AFC tabs are for next to the area that you enter the talk groups. I accept any lessons.... Keith in Renton |

Pouser, I have not used the program you are using, but I think I can answer one of your questions. The "HEX" vs. "DEC" should represent 2 different ways to enter the same "talkgroup" info. In Motorola systems, the actual system technicians likely use the HEX values to identify each talkgroup. Hex = Hexidecimal, or counting in sixteens. 0, 1-9, A-F. However Hex is cumbersome for non-technical folks to use, and can often be misunderstood, so many of the trunking scanners interpret those id's into decimal values. I haven't looked at the lists here for a while, but I think they show both values. Either way, the HEX and Decimal values are just 2 different ways of looking at the same thing. Welcome aboard, I hope you find that radio is FUN! There are many many fine people here, and only 3 ugly ones. (Sorry Deja Vu) 73, Nick N7QOR |
