In short, Integrating the older DTR and newer DTR radios can be done if you change the settings in how they “look” for another radio within range. They will work with the older DTR410 and DTR550 radios, but it takes a bit more work because they program differently. The new DTR600 radios use the same programming software and programming methods as the Motorola DLR radios. So I’ll close there, leave you to research and hopefully get input by someone with a real guru insight to actual Motorola gear and migration experience.
It’s imperfect if possible, how much effort it saves if possible I’ve no gauge of, but in the DMR radio world, it’s been a life saver and sanity preserver that such is possible on DMR gear. I’m assuming that the CPS used differs, but if the data exchange described scope exists, potentially you may have a simple solution regardless of differing CPS’s or a common CPS.Īt the very least, it bypasses the security lockouts that usually stop a CPS easily migrating data though loading an alien compatible profile that should be technically writable to a compatible radio. Given the DMR has origins with MotoTrbo (a Motorola system), I suspect some means exists somehow to migrate at least the basic data without a full ground up profile creation of that same data into a new profile/project.Īt the very least, see if importing and exporting of data is implemented on the CPS for older equipment and likewise for the later software for the destination radio. It may require fine tuning as some settings specific to one model may not fit a later equivalent or different series, but the more common part (frequencies, channels, simplex or duplex or repeater mode per preset channel, ‘selcall’ type function data such a tone squelch and group identity operation stuff) should be migratable by some means other than laboriously re typed in manually to create a new baseline template for new equipment.Īnything specific to model and CPS I can’t help with since I’ve no access to Motorola CPS or foreign market models to test the principle out with.īut in essence, that principle is how we typically have converted MotoTrbo style codeplugs used in DMR sets between sets so enabling the core presets etc to migrated between makes of CPS between different make radio codeplugs. So assuming the Motorola CPS does offer this, the data exported would lack the specific individual ID of donor radio, but potentially if the data profile was truely compatible between two series/models, the data from old radio could be (via export and subsequent import into the programming project file for the new radio type. I’m not familiar with the Motorola CPS software, but many CPS’s allow you to export data to CSV format or similar, where you would use a spreadsheet say to do large data changes and save as CSV to reimport into a blank project.
