GRE AMERICA, INC. Product: PSR-500 / PSR-600 Classification: Production CPU Firmware Release NOTE Firmware Date: Feb/19/2008 Release Date: Feb/19/2008 Last Firmware Version: CPU "U1.1" Supported OS. Windows 98SE Windows ME Windows 2000 (standard or Professional) Windows XP (Home or Professional) Windows 2003 Server ("standard" or x64) Windows Vista ("standard" or x64) ============================================================ CPU Production Firmware Version 1.2 release notes: - This is the user loadable version of the Factory 1.2 CPU firmware. Will display as "uP Appl Ver:U1.2" after loading and is identical to the factory "F1.2" load. - Please use with DSP version 1.2 or higher, otherwise some features may not operate properly New features: - Added brief ScanList tag and "ON vs OFF" display when toggling ScanLists on/off. This is displayed for >= 500 mS, depending on how large the toggled ScanList is - Added find by lockout status F1:"L/Out" feature to the PGM EDIT FIND menu for objects that have the permanent lockout set. - Added a low duty cycle battery icon blink (200 mS on, 1300 mS off) when battery charge is active (yellow vs black battery holder is not detected) - Added a "Is Mobile" bit to remote control Get Status PC/IF command - bit 5 of byte 1 (the byte with the RF squelch, mute, and DSP pin states). This will be described in additional detail within the updated user manual - Added FUNC+F1 to Sweeper and Limit Search. Allows access to alternate function that is not visible when a signal is being received (in Sweeper: toggles band; in Limit: enters the Limits menu) - Added within a TSYS object a "Check All CCs" option for MultiSite=STAT. If selected, on every SCAN mode pass, will force a check of all CC frequencies instead of stopping after the 'dwell' time expires. Fixes / Enhancements: - Improvements to P25 control channel message processing, particularly on non-800 MHz systems - Improved control channel hunt speed, should result in significant speed improvements for MultiSite STAT and ROAM trunking systems with large control channel lists - Corrected an issue where, in certain programming configurations, custom P25 trunking table information from one system could corrupt the stored values for another system - Fixed channel selection menus in channel-based search objects - Fixed CTCSS/DCS menu items (malfunction when F3 is pressed) - Fixed Sweeper lockup when moving from All Bands to Public Safety, with certain combinations of "enabled groups" - Changed default "EndtoneMot" value from 250 to 80. The value 80 is used to correct squelch tails at the end of voice transmissions on narrowband EDACS systems - Corrected minor discrepancies in Motorola 3600 trunking 800 MHz default and splinter tables - Improved AM unmute delay to prevent audio pops when squelch opens on AM transmissions. Uses current PGM FUNC GLOB "SweepAMDelay" parameter [150 mS]) - Minor corrections to help text for "SweepAMDelay" and "SweepFMDelay" - Fixed MultiSite=Stat mode problem, if active CC is the first one in the TSYS control channel list it was never checked - Changed GLOB menu's "default scan list" item to allow entries up to 22 (for Fav [Scan List 21] and SkyWarn [Scan List 22]), changed all areas of radio operation that allow a numerical scanlist value to be specified to allow values up to 22, allows Fav and SkyWarn to be specified as valid Scan Lists in addition to the normal Scan Lists 01-20 - Fixed issue with EDACS CCDump in Analyze mode, and corrected the order of the EDACS messages dumped within each two-message block - Changed Mot 3600 Site ID display format (analyze mode) to decimal - Fixed issue with CONV object delay time early expiration when priority check hits - EDACS I-Call 00000 problem fixed - Fixed blinking '000' in DCS Search mode menu item - Fixed Sweeper "All Bands" group 9 text - Fixed Sweeper line 1 display when toggling bands while "paused" - Fixed up/down key in SCAN mode when stopped on Wx Priority (1050Hz detected) - Fixed Private Call TGID display format in PGM menus - Fixed P25 CC quality display percentage "%" formatting in analyze mode - Fixed issue where a PSR-500 or PC application may not properly clone to a PSR-600 - Improved Tune mode ability to properly detect and display EDACS-Narrow control channel information - Fixed source / target radio ID display for P25 user-to-user ("private") calls. They were swapped previously. This is primarily a user interface issue, and did not affect the operation of the scanner.
