Updating the Console Configuration
Define Patch Groups
Predefined sets of channels are configured for Group Patch using the Group Patch
Definition menu. These patch groups are activated from the “Patch Groups” menu
selection of the “Group Menu” menu. When the Group Patch Definition menu is selected,
the Miscellaneous Menu is replaced with a list of 16 patch group buttons.
To define a group, press the desired setup button. The group patch buttons are replaced
with the channel list buttons. Channels that are included in the group display in green;
those not included are displayed in white. To add or remove a channel from the group,
press the channel button. For multi-frequency channels, the current channel frequency
selection is saved with the group. When the group is activated, the channel frequency is set
to that stored with the group and then the channels are patched.
To save the group setup and return to the Miscellaneous Menu, press the Save Setup
button. To cancel the setup, press the Cancel button. Further groups are defined by
repeating the above steps.

Insert the floppy disk containing the RDPS configuration files into the A: drive on the
console PC. Press LOAD SCNDRY CONFIG. Press COPY FILES to start the copy
process. The program copies the configuration files from the floppy to the hard disk.

program loads the correct configuration files.
