4-2 Radio Programming: Entering Programming Mode
Although factory programmed with default PublicGroups, DTR Series radios require user-specific
programming in order to fully benefit from their digital features.
Radios can be programmed using the Programming Software (00230), which requires the
Programming Cable, or in a separate programming mode. The Programming Software is the
recommended method for programming DTR Series radios, as it has archive and report capabilities
that aid in both initial product configuration and fleet maintenance.
The separate programming mode allows access to modify and add contacts, update existing and
add new quick notes, and access manager features (DTR2450 only) such as Remote Disable and
Remote Monitoring. A mini keyboard is used to enter text into contacts and to modify saved text
messages.
