The Uniden EDACS format: (Agency Fleet Subfleet)
Using this example (586 DECIMAL = 04-092 AFS = 24a HEX):
(1) 586 decimal = 01001001010 binary (talkgroups are 11-bit binary)
(2) Split the binary as follows 0100 | 1001 | 010
(3) Convert each group to decimal 04 09 2
(4) Format as 04-092
The HEX translation would be:
(1) 586 decimal = 01001001010 binary
(2) Split binary as 010 | 0100 | 1010
(3) Convert each group to HEX 2 4 a
(4) Write as 24a
The BC245 can do the DECIMAL/AFS conversion internally, and the
user can choose either mode of entry and display. So it won't
be necessary to do this by hand.
