Channels are assigned to zones from the channel editor. A/B Channel = the channel pre-selected on each VFO side when entering the zone (must be a zone member; empty = first/second member). Max 250 zones × 250 channels, names up to 16 characters. The No. is assigned automatically (1…N) — zones are renumbered on save, so unlike Channels / Radio IDs / Receive Groups they don't keep gaps.
| No. | Name | A Channel | B Channel | Members | Zone Hide |
|---|
Channels are assigned to scan lists from the channel editor. Priority channels must be list members; timing uses the CPS ranges (Look Back 0.5–5.0 s, Dropout/Dwell 0.1–5.0 s). Max 250 scan lists × 100 channels, names up to 16 characters. The No. is assigned automatically (1…N) — scan lists are renumbered on save and don't keep gaps.
A channel's start scan list is separate from membership: it is the list the radio scans when you start scanning on that channel, and it can be any list. Set it per channel with the radio button beside each list in the channel editor, or select a list here and use Start on members. Fill unknown uses each channel's first list wherever the start list was never read or names a list that is gone.
| No. | Name | Priority Select | Priority Ch 1 | Priority Ch 2 | Look Back A | Look Back B | Dropout | Dwell | Members | Started by |
|---|
The codeplug's contact list (TalkGroups.CSV). Channels reference these by contact name; Call Type and Call Alert round-trip into the codeplug. The No. is assigned automatically (1…N) — talk groups are renumbered on save (the radio compacts this list), so they don't keep gaps.
| No. | TG/DMR ID | Name | Call Type | Call Alert |
|---|
NXDN Talk Groups (NXTalkGroup.CSV): the NXDN talk-group / contact list channels reference in NXDN mode. Edits round-trip into the downloaded .rdt and the serial write.
| No. | NX ID | Name | Last Name | Attr | Tx Forbid |
|---|
Receive Groups (CPS "Group Call List"): named sets of Group Call talk groups a channel can watch. Channels reference a group via their RX Group List field. Max 250 groups, 64 contacts each.

MDC1200 Encode table (CPS "QDC 1200 Encode"): the analog MDC-1200 encode entries. ID is the stored slot number; Enc Type 0–6, Kind (0=PTT ID / 1=Emergency), ACK, and Group/Private ID. Names up to 24 characters.
Edits round-trip into the downloaded .rdt.
| No. | ID | Enc Type | Kind | ACK | Group ID | Private ID | Name |

MDC1200 Address Book (CPS "QDC Address Book"): analog MDC-1200 contacts. Type, Call Type, ACK, and Group/Private ID, named as this radio's own CPS names them. Names up to 15 characters.
Edits round-trip into the downloaded .rdt.
| No. | ID | Type | Call Type | ACK | Group ID | Private ID | Name |
|---|
QDC1200 Setting (CPS "Analog > QDC 1200"): the Encode/Decode dialog scalars — Side Tone, encode timings, resend count, remote-allow flags, and the Private/Group Self-IDs. Saved values override the codeplug's block at build time and round-trip into the downloaded .rdt and the serial write.
FM broadcast presets (CPS "FM" list): slots 1–100 (sparse slot numbers allowed), frequency 60–108 MHz, a name up to 16 characters, and a Scan setting (Add = active preset, Del = deleted slot the CPS keeps). The radio's FM-VFO records are preserved automatically.
Edits round-trip into the downloaded .rdt and the serial write to the radio.
| No. | Frequency [MHz] | Scan | Name |
|---|
AM airband channels (CPS "AM List"): receive frequencies (typically 108–137 MHz, 4-decimal precision) with names up to 16 characters. The radio's AM-VFO record is preserved, and AM Zone memberships follow automatically when channels are removed or reordered (a zone must keep at least one channel).
Edits round-trip into the downloaded .rdt and the serial write to the radio.
| No. | Frequency [MHz] | Name |
|---|
AM airband zones (CPS "AM Zone"): each zone groups AM List channels, with a selected A Channel (the VFO-A channel on entering the zone, always one of the members) and an optional Scan subset. Add channels to a zone via Member Channels. A zone must keep at least one channel; names up to 16 characters.
Edits round-trip into the downloaded .rdt. On a serial write the zone name + members reach the radio; changing a zone's scan list or the number of zones may need a full (no-base) write.
| No. | Name | A Channel | Members | Scan |
|---|
Roaming channels (CPS "Roaming Channel"): the channels the radio roams between, each with a receive/transmit frequency, a Color Code (0–15, or "No Use") and a Slot (Slot1/Slot2/No Use). Roaming Zones group these channels by their list position; names up to 16 characters.
Edits round-trip into the downloaded .rdt.
| No. | Name | RX Freq | TX Freq | Color Code | Slot |
|---|
Roaming zones (CPS "Roaming Zone"): each zone groups Roaming Channels. Add channels to a zone via Member Channels. A zone must keep at least one channel; names up to 16 characters.
Edits round-trip into the downloaded .rdt.
| No. | Name | Members |
|---|
GPS Roaming (CPS "GPS Roaming"): 32 fixed slots. Each ties a zone to a geographic circle — a centre (latitude/longitude in degrees + minutes, N/S and E/W) and a radius in metres — so the radio switches to that zone inside the circle. Set On/Off off (or the zone to Off) to disable a slot.
Fixed 32 slots (edit only); edits round-trip into the downloaded .rdt.
| No. | On/Off | Zone | Latitude | Longitude | Radius [m] |
|---|

Edits round-trip into the downloaded .rdt.
| No. | Code | Call Type |
|---|
Digital Contact WhiteList (CPS "DMR → Repeater Whitelist → Digital Contact WhiteList"): the DMR radio IDs a cross-band repeater passes. Code is the DMR ID (0–16777215). Up to 1000 entries. AesApp WebCPS stores the full ID (the CPS truncates IDs > 65535 when saving — a CPS bug).
Edits round-trip into the downloaded .rdt.
| No. | Code |

Pre-defined SMS (CPS "Pre-defined SMS"): canned text messages the radio can send. Up to 100 messages, each up to 200 characters; messages may span multiple lines.
Edits round-trip into the downloaded .rdt.
| No. | Text |
|---|
Hot Keys (CPS "Hot Key"): what each programmable key does. A key is either a Menu shortcut or a Call, and a Call is Analog, Digital, or Off.
The keys are a fixed set of slots, so rows can be edited but not added or removed. Editing a key marks it to be written — keys you leave alone keep exactly the bytes the codeplug arrived with.
Edits round-trip into the downloaded .rdt and the direct serial write.
| Key | Mode | Menu | Call Type | Contact | Content |
|---|
Auto Repeater Offset frequencies (CPS "Auto Repeater Offset Frequency"): the repeater-offset presets the radio auto-applies by band. Each is an offset in MHz.
Edits round-trip into the downloaded .rdt.

Edits round-trip into the downloaded .rdt.
| No. | Number | Name |

The bulk digital contact database. Not editable here — keep the list from your imported codeplug, or replace it wholesale with one of your own. The choice is applied when you build/download the codeplug and when you export CSVs.
You have no contact lists yet. Add one on My Contact Lists — that page lists where to get a contact list CSV.
The APRS identity, beacon timing (TX power / transmit delay / pre-wave), the TX frequency and slots 1–8, the digital reporting channels, the fixed location and Fix 2–8, symbol/icon, report-type flags, receive filters and the other analog settings on this tab are written into the codeplug and to the radio. What you leave untouched keeps the value in the project's template (the imported codeplug, or the bundled base). Reaching the codeplug only: the Alt Data unit, and on the D890 the East/West of Fix 4–8, which its radio has no place for.
