Over-the-Air Programming (OTAP)
Your radio can be updated by your dealer remotely, via OTAP,
without needing to be physically connected. Additionally, some
settings can also be configured via OTAP.
While undergoing OTAP, the LED blinks green.
NOTE: When the radio is receiving high volume data, the
channel is busy. A PTT button press at this time causes
a negative tone to sound.
Once the programming is complete, a tone sounds, and your
radio restarts (powers off and on again).
Utilities

locations may also be filtered out.
