XPR3500

Hello all,

Seem to have a little difficulty in finding a definite answer to this;

Does the XPR3500 have a top Orange Emergency Button and does it have a continuous rotary channel knob (can channels 1-128 be accessed directly without switching zones)?

I've played with a 3500 sample file in CPS and it looks like it has the Emergency feature, but I could only get 16 channels in a zone, although it says it 128 channel capacity.

Thanks for the help!

The XPR portable radios have 16 position encoder for the channel, not a continuous encoder, so unfortunately you are stuck to 16 channels per zone.

There is no top orange emergency button on that radio, you can assign side button 1 or 2 to emergency.

Also, if it helps, here is a link to the user guide for that radio:
