openGD77 RT3S Guide d utilisation

Post by F4JNW » Sun Apr 30, 2023 9:58 pm

Bonjour,
Déjà , merci a tous pour votre travail formidable et bravo.
1- Savez vous si il existe un guide d utilisation avec le paramétrage et les combinaisons de touches pour un RT3S ( GPS ) firmware d origine 19.06 dans lequel l OPENGD77 a été installé ?.
J'ai bien trouvé pour d autres postes mais pas pour celui ci.
2- Pensez vous que ce firmware améliore la sensibilité de réception ? avec le firmware d origine , en DMR , je le trouve assez sourd, même en mode monitor. il faut vraiment un signal fort pour qu il décode malgré le voyant vert bien allumé.( squelch a 1 ).
3- Lors de la programmation, y a il moyen de créer un canal incluant les 2 TS ?

Merci d'avance pour votre aide.

1 - C'est le guide de l'utilisateur de l'OpenGD77 . Le firmware d'origine n'a plus aucune importance ici, il est remplacé par l'OpenGD77.
2 - Le firmware tire le maximum de ce qui est disponible. On ne saurait faire d'un âne un cheval de course ;).
3 - Le firmware est en mode promiscuous par defaut, le TS peut être filtré, ou pas.

Je pense qu'il faudrait déjà lire le manuel, car la philosophie du fonctionnement est très différente de ce que l'on trouve sur les postes DMR, orienté pro (1 canal par fréquence, par TS, par contact, etc...)

Petit note: ce forum est en langue anglaise, il faut éviter d'y écrire dans une autre langue. Et un petit post par serait bien.

Cheers.

iv figured out a few key combos myself that may be handy (i have non gps model with verson 20230227201014 gd77 firmware)

button below ptt + rotate channel knob = cycles through zones

green + hash key locks ptt (same combo unlocks)

green + star locks keypad ( button below ptt + star unlocks)

holding up arrow goes into scan set group channels

button below ptt + star key changes from digi to analogue (shortcut)

pressing star key from what i can see changes timeslot

button below ptt + hash brings up contacts (group call menue name if press has whilst holding cycles through group,private,all)

button below ptt + green is channel details

button below ptt + up and down arrows adjust power (hold up arrow for few seconds on highest setting to goto un restricted)

button above ptt + green brings up quick menue

holding button above ptt brigs up quick info on current channel (talk group,freq,ctcss,squelch)

button below ptt + hash key opens dtmf contacts (when in analogue mode)


as for it being deaf from my experience so far with it it has not been deaf only to very distant repeaters it knows theirs a signal but its just not strong enough to pick up reliably had the same thing with the stock firmware myself outher's may have had diffrent experience (better antenna high up will help a heck of a lot with range)

you cant have both timeslots on the one channel you can change via one of the key combos above between them but most run ts2 for hotspots and repeaters some use both but not all

hope some of that info helped ill update if i find anymore combos

hello F1RMB , thank you for your answers. Thank you for the indications on the language to use. Sorry also for the presentation ... I was convinced it was but obviously not. It's corrected. Have Good day. ;)

MODERATOR EDIT:
User also replied this, but clicking on "report post" instead of "reply" button ;)

Code: Select all

Thank you very much Andrew M7RDN for all this information, it's great!
for reception sensitivity, I compared under the same conditions (exterior X200 antenna, same geographical location) with a RETEVIS RT73 with its original firmware, it decodes the relays located approximately 30KM away. The RT3S has the green speaker, but no sound. That's why I wonder about his reception sensitivity.

i might make a visual diagram like the outher radios that are on the user guide would be helpfull to have saved vs having to read through to find them having a cheat sheet would be nice
