Rebanding and P25
The current system configuration is a trunked P25 system as the ACPS system page indicates. Unlike SAFE-T, the ACPS system does not transmit the band plan in the P25 messages, requiring scanner operators to manually enter the bandplan as detailed on Software Support for Uniden Rebanding.
Agency Codes
Most Allen County law enforcement agencies (excluding the Indiana State Police post in Fort Wayne) use a close derivative of the known ACPD signals. The common signal codes that are still in use by Allen County law enforcement agencies are not currently on the wiki in a traditional sense. An image of the codes when they were, at one time, on the wiki is available, though it is not perfectly up to date (several codes above 120 are not listed). Below is a typed version that can be updated as code purposes are rediscovered or learned.

ACPD Unit Numbering
ACPD officers use their three digit badge numbers as their unit identifiers on the air unless they are a part of the command staff, in which case they use identifiers in the form of "AC1", "AC2", etc. Occasionally, a unit will identify itself by its car number. When a confinement officer is performing a transport, they may be heard on the air using a unit prefix of "C" (though this is unconfirmed, it is likely). When multiple units are on duty in a single commission, one unit nominates itself as the sole contact for the commission (synonymous with "vehicle") for the shift.
Geography
ACPD has enforcement power within the entire county, though the patrol division is assigned outside of the city limits; despite this, many enforcement activities are performed by ACPD within the city. FWPD officers are firmly limited in jurisdiction to the city limits. ACPD has divided the county into districts which are identified alphabetically; the range and number of these districts is unknown. References to districts are rarely used, though they likely describe the patrol area of a particular unit. It is more common for ACPD units to use Signal codes to identify a particular location (e.g. Signal 121, Woodburn).
Monroeville
Despite being within the jurisdiction of ACPD, Monroeville maintains a town marshal; the currently appointed marshal has held the position since 1986. ACPD still services calls within Monroeville, however. The marshal maintains a separate job within Monroeville. The marshal has his own commission, one of the earlier Dodge Chargers to appear in service within Allen County, appearing white in base color with blue, reflective accents. It also appears that the commission is equipped to carry a K9 partner (like several past commissions). It is unknown, though likely, that the marshal's commission is equipped with an ACPS radio. The commission may also have VHF capability, as Monroeville often relies on VHF for emergency communications. There is photographic evidence that the marshal is also equipped with a mobile radio.
New Haven
Despite appearing to be conjoined with Fort Wayne, New Haven maintains its own police agency and has a several fire houses under the control of the Allen County Fire Department, Adams Township. FWPD appears to have jurisdiction within New Haven, though patrols do not emphasize this area due to the empowerment of NHPD. NHPD relies mostly on marked Ford Police Interceptors, though is known to have unmarked CVPIs, one or more marked SUVs, and a marked Dodge Charger.
