Global TX Multiplier – DISABLED
Radio Inhibit – DISABLED TX Multiplier – 1
Radio Check – DISABLED Silent Override w/Mon – DISABLED
CAI Data Registration – ENABLED
ASTRO CALL LISTS – Displayed by pressing F4 ! F6 ! F5 ! F4 from the Main Menu. This menu configures
group and selective calling features. It is not implemented and therefore should remain blank.
ASTRO CONVENTIONAL TALKGROUPS – Displayed by pressing F4 ! F6 ! F5 ! F6 from the Main
Menu. This entire menu is used to configure Conventional ASTRO mode talkgroups, much like trunking. This
feature is not supported at this time and therefore this menu shoud remain empty. Any data shown on the menu is
the factory default and may remain.
CONVENTIONAL MESSAGE ALIAS LIST – Displayed by pressing F4 ! F6 ! F8 from the Main Menu.
This is used to configure various short messages to send via the radio. It is not supported in the Flexcomm
integration. Any entry showing on this screen is the factory default and may remain.
CONVENTIONAL STATUS ALIAS LIST - Displayed by pressing F4 ! F6 ! F9 from the Main Menu. This is
used to configure various short status messages to send via the radio. It is not supported in the Flexcomm
integration. Any entry showing on this screen is the factory default and may remain.
ZONE / TALKGROUP (CHANNEL) ASSIGNMENT – Displayed by pressing F4 ! F8 from the main menu.
This menu is used to assign any of the possible 255 Personalities to a specific zone and channel. The radio module
has the capability of 16 zones each containing 16 channels. While each personality MUST be assigned to at least
one zone/channel location, there is no requirement that all zone/channel locations be filled.
NOTE: One VERY CRITICAL requirement for the proper integration of the ITM with the Wulfsberg
system is that the personality assigned to Zone 1 Channel 1 MUST BE A REPEATER. Any repeater
personality will fulfill this requirement.
“F” Keys are used to add additional zones (up to 16) and additional channels (up to 16) within each existing zone.
Zones may be given an alpha-numeric name, though this is not required in the C-5000 integration. Additionally,
each channel location within a zone may be given an alpha-numeric name. Although it has no functionality in the
C-5000 integration, the channel locations within a zone should be labeled with the proper name of the frequencies
that are loaded into the respective personality. This will aid greatly in viewing printouts of the codeplug data. If a
given zone has more than 8 channels assigned to it, use the page up or page down buttons to slew the display screen
to the opposing set of 8 channels within the zone. “F” Keys are also used to move between zones, although you may
also place the cursor under the ZONE NUMBER entry and either use the up/down arrow keys or enter a specific
zone number to view. All zone/channel entries will be CONV which stands for Conventional (as opposed to
Trunking). The Personality Number is derived in the Conventional Personalities section of the RSS software (Main
Menu – F4 ! F6 ! F3) A record must be kept during programming as to what frequency set (channel) is assigned
to what zone/channel location.
To add an additional zone, press F2 and then F3. This adds a new zone to the end of the existing zones. If it is
desired to insert a new zone between two existing zones, press F2 followed by F2. New zones may also be copied
from existing zones by entering the source zone number in the field that states DEFAULT DATA after pressing F2
to add the zone. Zones may be deleted using the F5 key. As with zones, channels may be added to the end of
existing channels, inserted between existing channels, and copied from existing channels.
When adding new channels, first generate a new channel location using the F6 key. Then TAB to the CHANNEL
NAME and enter the proper name of the channel. Next, TAB twice to the PERSONALITY NUMBER field and
enter the specific number of the personality where the channel frequency and related information have been
previously entered. Continue to enter new channels until all 16 channel locations in the current zone are full. As the
actual display of the ITM is not used, personalities may be assigned to zones and channels sequentially beginning
with zone 1 - channel 1 on through zone 16 - channel 16.
