Please document any tips and tricks for programming DMR and MOTOTRBO systems, manually or with ProScan or ARC-XT, here


Required: The following firmware versions are required to copy DMR / MOTOTRBO / NXDN. These are paid upgrades and applied (using the front port on the BCD996P2) using BC VUP3


Why won't my scanner receive DMR on Slot 1 and or Slot 2
  • Try reversing Slot numbers compared to System's Slot numbering.


On DMR I can't see the Flavor Type, Color Code or Slot
  • Display Mode 1 - will show the flavor (CON, CAP, XPT, etc).
  • Display Mode 2 - will show the Color Code.
  • Display Mode 3 - will show the slot.


Is there a way to calculate the frequency from the LCN in a Tier III system?


If the system is in the database as a Capacity Max or Connect Plus system, where can I find the color code, LCN and LSN?
Site Frequency Table
  1. Go to the database listing
  2. Click on a site name under Name
  3. On the next form, go all the way to the bottom and look on the left for the Site Frequency Table. An example is shown on the right


How Can I find the correct LCN to use in Uniden scanners for a Tier III System?
Site Frequency Table
  1. If it's in the database, go to the frequency listing
  2. Click on a site name under Name
  3. On the next form, go all the way to the bottom and look on the left for the Site Frequency Table. An example is shown on the right
  4. Take the channel number, reduce it by 1 and divide the result by 2. This will be the LCN that Uniden scanners will recognize


Can You Program a frequency on the 325P2 or 996P2 to show NXDN information?
  • Yes. When you program it, press Hold and set the mode to Digital`
  • Press Func + 6. There are 3 modes; Mode 1 shows NXDN or DMR, Mode 2 shows CC or RAN, Mode 3 shows slot or UID


Can the 325P2 and 996P2 search for a NAC (P25), Color Code (DMR), RAN or Area (NXDN)?
  • Yes. Go to Srch/CloCall Opt, then Tone/Code Search, then NAC/CC/RAN/Area.
