Is there a way to program the Motorola RDU4100 radio to the Motorola CP200 or visa versa to communicate on the same frequency?

If your CP200 is a UHF model the answer is yes. Both radios are dealer programmable to most frequencies between 450-470 MHz.

Best regards.

SOURCE: how to program frequences in a radius p110 radio

The P110 radio is computer programmable. The software is Motorola proprietary, so it is only available to Motorola dealers and a few select types of end-users. The best option is to have it programmed by a dealer. (Just for a cost example: Our dealership does them for $15 plus shipping.)

SOURCE: Motorola CP200, radio just beeps when im pressing any button.

It is possible your radio is not programmed, or has a bad/old battery.

It is normal for the side buttons 1 and 2 to beep when depressed to indicate you turned the feature on/off. Each of these buttons has the ability to be programmed a long and a short press feature.

If your radio beeps when your press the PTT button, on any or all channels, it indicates a low or nearly dead battery. Check your battery date code to see if the battery needs replaced.

If your radio emits a long tone on a channel, that channel is not programmed to function.

If your radio beeps a single beep when you turn it on, this is normal.

Charge your radio completely overnight, with the radio turned off. See if this solves the problem. If not, try a new/different battery to see if it will solve the issue. If not, drop by your local dealer and let them look at the unit.

SOURCE: need to program in 1-10 frequency...is this possible ?

Okay, I'm going to attempt to assist you with this. If your TalkAbout 200 has a screen showing your channel number and a smaller number in the upper right. It is possible your radio could be programmed to match another TalkAbout or FRS (family radio service) style radio. I cannot find an owners manual in English for the T200. Here is one you can translate from Czech http://www.cbradio.cz/doc/Motorola/PMR%20TA200/manual.pdf (Simply copy and paste this into a google search with the word translate in front of it.) It will give you the instructions for reprogramming your "interference eliminator code", aka CTCSS. Your radio has 14 built in frequencies. From your explanation I would assume you need your BIG number to be 1, and your small number to be 10.

If your TalkAbout does not have a screen, you will not be able to do the CTCSS #10. It is a CSQ model only.

Sidenote: If the other radios you are wanting to talk to are NOT FRS-type or TalkAbout radios, your radio will not match them.

SOURCE: Motorola SP50 Programming

The SP50 is dealer programmable. The software, cable and RIB (radio interface box) are necessary for programming this unit. If you are needing to match an existing unit, you can have the radio programmed at your local dealer or by shipping your radios to a service center. (Typically $15 to $25 US)

When looking for the second radio, be certain to get an SP50 with the same model number as your existing unit to ensure they will work together properly. Model numbers beginning with P93 are VHF and P94 are UHF.

My Cp200 can't connect to my new Motorola Talkabout T5720 (7 Channels) 2-Way Radio, need HELP

The CP200 is a dealer programmable radio which was available in UHF or VHF. You would need the UHF model to match. Then the radio itself would need programmed to the same frequencies as the T5720. This requires Motorola proprietary software, cable and radio interface box (RIB). Your best option would be stopping by your nearest dealer to have it programmed.

Cp200 and cls1110

If both radios are on the same bandwidth, ie. VHF or UHF, the answer is yes. They simply would need to be programmed to match one another. The CLS1110 is the limiting factor. You would need to choose a frequency from its frequency list and have it programmed into the CP200. The radio would need to be programmed by a Motorola dealer.

Can two different style motorola 2 way radios be changed to same frequency

Hi Kate,

The short answer to your question is: no, or "not readily". Here's why:

The Motorola 4900 radio operates in the FRS (family radio service) and GMRS (general mobile radio service) in the UHF band. This radio will work with any other FRS / GMRS band radios (no reprogramming of transmit and or receive frequencies is possible for these radios). The trick is that the numbering of the channels may differ from brand to brand ie: Ch1 on your Motorola may not necessarily be Ch1 on a Midland radio or other brand. A complete list of the frequencies and channel assignments for FRS /GMRS can be found on Pg. 17 of the manual. It is important to note that without a valid GMRS license, you are prohibited from transmitting on the GMRS only channels (Ch 15 through Ch 22). The combination GMRS/FRS channels (Ch1 through Ch7) and the FRS only channels (Ch8 through Ch14) are for individuals and family members that do not have valid GMRS licenses. If this is you, you should limit your transmissions to Ch1 through Ch14 only, as FRS does not require a license in the US. Unlicensed use of GMRS only Ch15 through Ch22 can result in fines and imprisonment if caught by the FCC.

Further complicating the issue are the so called "privacy tones". This is simply a very low or "sub-audible" frequency that is sent whenever transmitting. Motorola calls these "Interference Eliminator Codes". When another radio receiver is set to listen for a particular privacy tone, it stays silent until a transmission with the exact same privacy tone is detected. Again, these tones are listed in no particular order, but are generally listed as 1, 2, 3, etc. or a, b, c, etc. instead of the actual frequency in hertz. You can selectively set your radio to transmit & receive one of the 38 codes or, set the code to "0" to communicate with radio that do not offer these privacy codes - or does not use the same frequencies for these codes. You can read more on Motorola's codes on Pg. 19 of the manual.

The Motorola CP200 radio on the other hand is a commercial radio, and requires computer programming with Motorola software. The CP200 is offered as both Low & High sub-banded VHF and Low, Mid & High sub-banded UHF radios. You would need to have a CP200 that is designed to accept the Mid UHF band (438Mhz - 470Mhz) frequencies in order to program the 462Mhz & 467Mhz FRS / GMRS frequencies into it. The final obstacle would be what is called "FCC Type Acceptance". The CP200 is probably NOT Type Accepted for transmitting FRS/GMRS frequencies, and as such the Motorola dealer doing the programing might balk at putting them in. You can read a spec sheet on the CP200 here.

I hope this helps & good luck!

I can hear what others are saying however i cannot talk to them. I know that i'm on the right channel. RDU4100 Motorola Walkie Talkie

The "others" have an Interference Eliminator Code ( aka PL or code) applied to their frequency. You would need to program the same "code" into your radio.

Here is a link to the user guide: http://www.mytoolstore.com/motorola/rdx_userguide.pdf

You can with the manual determine how to program and/or read-out the radios.

Best regards.
