Radio Programming: Adding Contacts 4-5
Programming a Unit ID (Private Calls Only)
The unit ID of a private contact can be read over the air or entered using the mini keyboard.
1. Scroll to select ID and press under Read. The ID screen appears.
2. Use the mini keyboard to enter an 11 digit ID. When the mini keyboard is connected, the left
becomes Change. After entering the ID, press under Ok to confirm the entry and
to return to the previous screen with the ID entered.
Selecting a Group ID
When programming a new PublicGroup, press under Change to select a PublicGroup ID from
1-100. IDs already in use on your radio will be preceded by an “x”.
When programming a new PrivateGroup, the radio selects your GroupID from your contact list.
Press
under Change to select another Group ID. Since the default GroupID is dependent
upon the contact list of all radios being the same, it is recommended to clone PrivateGroups to other
radios.
Entering a Home Group Number (Private Calls Only)
If a Home Group is selected for your radio, then it will return to that Group after 30 seconds of
inactivity. This ensures that any transmissions on this channel are not missed. Selecting a Home
Group also automatically adds the contact to that PrivateGroup.
1. Scroll to select the Home Group Number and press under Change. The Home Group
screen appears.
NOTE: A next to a selection indicates the present selection.
2. Scroll to select the desired entry. Press under Select to select the new item. The dis-
play returns to the previous screen with the new Home Group Number entered.
