Radioddity™ Codeplug Extensions

This section collects all device specific extensions to the codeplug for Radioddity™ and some Baofeng™ devices.

These extensions are applicable to Radioddity™ GD77 and Baofeng/Radioddity RD-5R radios.

Radio settings extension

This extension allows to set the device-specific general settings for Radioddity™ radios. It extends the settings section of the codeplug.

Example 4.3. Radio settings extension example showing default values.

Radio settings fields

preambleDuration: This sets the preamble duration in milliseconds. Default 360ms.
monitorType: Specifies the monitor type. Must be either Open or Silent. Default Open.
lowBatteryWarnInterval: Specifies the interval in seconds, at which the radio will warn you about a low battery voltage. Default 30s.
callAlertDuration: Specifies the call alert duration in seconds. Default 120s.
loneWorkerResponseTime: When lone worker is enabled, specifies the time in minutes before the radio will start to remind the user. Default 1min. See also Lone Worker.
loneWorkerReminderPeriod: Specifies the period in seconds for the lone worker reminder. Default 10s. See also Lone Worker.
groupCallHangTime: Specifies the group-call hang time in milliseconds. This is the time-period the user can answer a received group call by pressing PTT. After this time has passed, a press on the PTT button will call the default contact on the selected channel. Default 3000ms. See also Hang Time.
privateCallHangTime: Specifies the private-call hang time in milliseconds. This is the time-period the user can answer a received private call by pressing PTT. After this time has passed, a press on the PTT button will call the default contact on the selected channel. Default 3000ms. See also Hang Time.
downChannelModeVFO: If true, the channel-up button will tune the VFO. If false, it will step through the channels. Default false.
upChannelModeVFO: If true, the channel-donw button will tune the VFO. If false, it will step through the channels. Default false.
resetTone: If true, the call-reset tone is enabled. This tone indicates (if enabled) that the call hang-time has passed. Default false.
unknownNumberTone: If true, the unknown number tone is enabled. This tone indicates (if enabled) that an incoming call is from an unknown number. Default false.
artsToneMode: Specifies the ARTS tone mode. Must be one of Disabled, Once or Always. Default Once.
digitalTalkPermitTone: If true, the talk permit tone is enabled for digital channels. Default false.
analogTalkPermitTone: If true, the talk permit tone is enabled for digital channels. Default false.
selftestTone: If true, the self-test passed tone gets enabled. Default true.
channelFreeIndicationTone: If true, the channel-free indication tone gets enabled. Default false. Please note that the manufacturer CPS for the RD5R has a typo.
allTonesDisabled: If true, all tones are disabled. This overrides other tone settings. Default false.
powerSaveMode: Puts the radio is a sleep mode when in idle state (no traffic on the channels). This allows for some power saving. However, the radio will need some time to wake up. Consequently, all other radios in the network need to transmit a wake-up preamble. Default true.
wakeupPreamble: Enables the transmission of a short wake-up preamble allowing receiving radios to wake-up in time for the actual transmission. Default true.
allLEDsDisabled: If true, all LEDs are disabled. Default false.
quickKeyOverrideInhibited: If true, allows the user to transmit on a busy channel irrespective of the channels admit criterion by double pressing the PTT. Default false.
txExitTone: If true, enables the so-called TX exit tone. This likely means a tone when releasing the PTT button. Default false.
txOnActiveChannel: If true, the radio will transmit on the currently active channel (if double-wait) is enabled. Default false.
animation: If true, the boot animation is enabled. Default false.
scanMode: Specifies the scan mode. Must be one of Time, Carrier or Search. Default Time.
repeaterEndDelay: Specifies the delay after the end of a repeater transmission in seconds. Default 0s, off.
repeaterSTE: Specifies the repeater STE (what ever that means) in seconds. Default 0s, off.
progPassword: Specifies the CPS programming password. If empty or not set, the password is disabled.
