5.11 SELECT ZONE/SYSTEM

A System is a group of channels or talkgroups that share a common set of parameters as
programmed using RPM2. For example, a Trunking system defines the parameters needed to
communicate on an infrastructure by agency or geographical region, such as WACN, System ID,
Talkgroups, etc. A conventional system defines the channel set used and any specific signaling
attributes (see RPM2 online help for more information on System attributes).
A Zone is an OPTIONAL container that can hold channels or talkgroups from a variety of systems
(see Section 6.3). In other words, each member of a Zone belongs to an underlying system. Zones
are always listed first in the Zone/System menu and are designated by the

If your system has more than 64 groups/channels, a button on the radio can be programmed for
the SEL CHAN/GRP option. This allows you to select a "super bank," providing access to
groups/channels beyond the first 64. ZONES have a limit of 64 entries per zone and cannot be
"superbanked."
If enabled via radio programming, systems are not displayed in the ZONE menu,
only zones are displayed.
