Description

PLEASE READ THIS AUCTION CAREFULLY:
The radio IS NOT INCLUDED with this auction.
Advanced Features and Front Panel Programming (FPP) Installation and Service for Motorola MotoTRBO XPR 5550 / XPR 7550 / SL7550 including the eSeries.
We are an authorized distributor for the original developer who developed this product for Motorola, but because of business issues, Motorola never sold this product to the public after development.
The current developer is in the Motorola Application Development (ADP) program.
BEWARE - This IS NOT some back door hack that requires you to use a NON-US Region CPS that is a logistical nightmare and causes depot issues.
BEWARE - This is NOT some back door hack that cripples the radio and defeats standard features and entitlements like IPSC, etc.
These advanced features will work on any Motorola Generic Option Board (GOB), nothing else can be running on the option board.  Typically, Connect Plus and LTR/Passport trunking run on the GOB.  While Capacity Max and Capacity Plus do not run on the GOB.
These advanced features are certified to work by a Motorola ADP Partner with the MotoTRBO models specified and is authorized for US Region model and CPS use.  These advanced features will also work on other Region radios such as EMEA or Europe, and will work with either the old Option Board PMLN5718AS for the regular series or the newer Option Board PMLN7324AS for the eSeries when the option board is added to EMEA models, check with us when in doubt for compatibility.
This auction is for the installation of the software, firmware and license to enable your Motorola MotoTRBO XPR 5550 / XPR 7550 / SL 7550, including the new eSeries to do
Front Panel Programming (FPP) as well as many other advanced features, please see below.
Everything necessary is delivered to you electronically via email or dropbox link.
The process of generating the firmware and license key takes a few days.
We also provide all of the necessary instruction guides and manuals in PDF softcopy via email, a hardcopy will be sent via regular mail with tracking to comply with eBay tracking requirements.
We can refer you to You Tube videos that show the advanced features working and will be happy to provide a list of satisfied customers.
The Motorola MotoTRBO XPR 4550 / XPR 6550 must have the 3rd party option board or expansion card installed (because of cost we are NOT offering this publicly at this time, but feel free to contact me). The features will not work on the standard Motorola Generic Option Board (GOB) on these models.
The FPP option for the Gen 2 is available for the XPR 5550 / XPR 7550 / SL 7550 including the new eSeries and can use the Motorola OEM option board so the cost is less (no 3rd party board required).
If you need to purchase a new or used Motorola MotoTRBO XPR 5550 / XPR 7550 / SL 7550 including the new eSeries, please contact us for pricing.
If you need to purchase an Option Board, please contact us for pricing.
Both the radio and the cost of the advanced features can be invoiced to you after you purchase the listing.
This auction is not for a special front housing or case for the radio.
FPP is in no way a substitute for the Motorola Computer Programming Software (CPS), FPP is only for "on the fly" temporary programming of frequencies only.
NOTE: On the fly means that if you power off the radio or change channels, you will lose the saved memory.
The FPP parameters are called "virtual personality" and they can't override channel steering from the radio (radio reboots on last channel selected). So when you change channel (or power off radio) they expire.  You can save FPP memory channels to the option board but when you restart the radio you will have to load the memory from the radio menu in order to recall it as an extra step (the memory channel will not appear automatically).
Warning: The FPP standard feature on the Gen 2 radio that comes from the factory is merely only for the turning on/off of menu items and features.
NOTE: Although the functionality works perfectly, p
lease remember that this is developmental software that is providing functionality that was never intended by the original manufacturer.
The following functionality will be added to your Motorola MotoTRBO radio:
- RSSI measurement in dBm on analog and digital channels
- VFO: allows to modify channel parameters temporarily (digital and analog) using the radio keypad (FPP)
- GPS info on radio display
- OTA Monitor: allows to trace over the air DMR data traffic on the channel
- Audio Monitor: allows listening all digital calls in the channel (also private call)
- 5 tone signaling (encode and decode 5 tone signalling)
- ETS 300-230 FFSK based signaling (encode and decode FFSK signaling)
- RSSI Datalogger stores RSSI measurement with GPS position in the internal flash memory of the board
These advanced features will not officially function on Capacity Plus or Linked Capacity Plus Personalities, but some users have had some limited success.
OTA and Audio Monitor will work only on one designated time slot and color code at a time (which can be changed on the fly).
The difference between dealing with US and the Developer is that we streamline the process, save you costs (bank transfers and currency fees), we are located IN the US and we provide support FROM the US (US Time Zones) and in the ENGLISH language.

SHIPPING, HANDLING & INSURANCE
Most of our items are in stock in the USA. There is no need to worry about getting your item delayed, lost in Customs, or having little or no recourse when buying from Overseas.  Handling time averages 24-hours from the time we receive your order. Orders ship via USPS or FedEx and are generally received within 2-5 business days to anywhere in the US. In the unlikely event the item is on backorder from the manufacturer we will notify you immediately and give you an estimated delivery date. Please note, if the item is large, it may be shipped via FedEx Ground (6-9 business days). We are proud of the fact that we get 99% of the orders to our customers within 3 days. Should you require your order sooner, express shipping options are available, please e-mail or call us for rates. Shipping fees are not refundable and will only be given on a case by case basis.
We primarily use USPS with delivery confirmation for smaller items, FedEx Ground for larger items, and insurance for high value items. The shipping & handling rate is not negotiable.  We use Shipping & Handling fees to cover shipping, handling, packaging, labor, time, driving to drop off, and to offset some of the eBay fees.  We reserve the right to change shipping vendors or class of service without notification.
We offer International shipping via USPS and FedEx to most countries. Please message us for shipping options and rates to your location.  All duties and taxes are the responsibility of the buyer, as they are not included in your shipping fees.
We do not combine shipping and handling unless stated otherwise or previously agreed to.  Shipping & Handling charges do INCLUDE Insurance.  We are self-insured so that if there is any lost, stolen or damage claim, you receive the value of your goods immediately and are not waiting months to file a claim or have the claim denied for various reasons with the carrier.
If you desire local pick up or a different class of shipping service, such as expedited or overnight, please contact us for prior arrangements.
In most cases, we typically ship same or next day, once payment is received.   For bids that close with payment after business hours on Friday or on the weekend, we will ship on the following Monday.  We ship on the following business day if there is an observed holiday.
Please allow the standard USPS allotted time for delivery, see the USPS website. Remember, we are relying on a third party (USPS) for shipping. If you have not received your item after the allotted time, please contact us so that we can resolve the issue with the USPS.

FEEDBACK
We love to give good feedback for good transactions.

If for some unforeseen circumstance that you are not happy and feel that you cannot leave us a high Detailed Seller Ratings (DSR) rating as well as positive feedback, please contact us before doing so and we will gladly try to work with you to resolve any issues that you may have with our products or service.  Your satisfaction is our top priority, so buy with confidence.
If you, as the buyer, pay on time and provide a smooth transaction with good communication, we will leave you positive feedback, but only after we receive feedback from you.  We find this serves as an incentive for many customers to leave the appropriate and deserved reciprocal feedback.
