My motorola T5422 would not transmit, how can I reset the settings?

Check your Code setting. Both the frequency and the code must be identical for the units to communicate. Shut off any special features and keep the radios at a simple setting until you get communications back.

You need to use the BTA-302 it is very difficult to find. I do have 2 for sale

The two radios share no frequencies in common. The T5720 has the US frequencies classified as FRS and GMRS, between 462-467 MHz. The T5422 has the UK frequencies classified as PMR and dPMR which are in the 446 MHz range.

A list of UK frequencies can be found in this forum: http://www.transmission1.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=23400

Best regards.

KNOWING ABOUT MOTOROLLA DEVICES

Motorola devices produce effects as one way communications. For example, device gets powered on from where user selects frequency transmission. User transmits entirely until receptacle device receives messages also replaying entirely until acquired. During the entire transmission processes, each entities waits to receive messages least expecting to transmit simultaneously. Motorola device are one way methods of sending messages also was an old fashioned method compared with recent telecommunications devices. Ascertain that a frequency has been determined from where message would be transmitted. Waiting for the receiver to reply confirms that message was transmitted. Usually with Motorola devices, alternate devices from where reception is captured waits to capture an impression. In a situation that the alternate device at an elsewhere location least transmitted a reply, reset several transitions frequencies to capture an impression as distress call from any alternate device that recognizes the caller at a frequency least prior determined.

WHAT IS EXPECTED FROM MOTOROLA DEVICES

Ascertain that the entity from where the message is derived has alternate methods of producing messages. For example, in a situation that the entity with the receptacle has another transitions device capable of being captured by the Motorola device makes an impression. For example, prior to calling contacts with the Motorola device, another entity that has means to transmit to the device being observed is heard. Ascertain that the device is capable of transmitting at several frequencies. A distress call from another device is captured from the device that has turned a frequency being transmitted distressfully. Ascertain that the caller is from a recognizable contact. In a situation that the caller is least recognizable least requiring any distressful condition requires to tune to frequency from where a recognizable entity can be captured for communications.

Unfortunately, parts were never offered for the T5400 series. Your best option is to find a used one on ebay to use for parts. Sorry I could not be of more assistance.

have motorola t5422 will not charge

If this is a new install, it is likely noise from the vehicles electrical system scrambling the processor of the radio. Put a filter on the power leads and check your install.

Here is a link to the T5000-T5500 user manual. 'http://www.motorola.com/mdirect/manuals/T50-T55_UserGuide.pdf'

From what you have stated, I can discern the radios will power up. You might try setting your interference eliminators to zero (off) to see if you are able to transmit at all.

You do not mention if you are using AA batteries or rechargeables. Either way a fresh set of charged batteries would be best for a test. It is clear you were getting power. However, it does take more energy to transmit than to receive. If your batteries are low or bad, pressing the PTT could us all the energy the radio has, and yet not transmit to the other units.

You might also check you VOX settings if any and be certain they are turned off.

It is not likely 4 radios would fail all at the same time. So it is probably a programming problem. Hope the user manual helps you find the solution.

Check your "code" setting. You may be on the same channel, but different codes. The code is the smaller number. Check your owners manual if you have one for resetting the radio to the factory default settings. This will clear any programming issues.
