Bug #4839
openBTECH UV-25X4 Missing ANI definition option.
0%
Description
I have a BTECH UV-25X4 , using chirp-daily-20170518.
It appears that there is no option to ANI number (setting 48) within Chirp.
I have found the ANI length setting under the tab Settings, Basic Setting between the Transmit status display and the Relay Signal (tone burst) setting. But I can't seem to find a location to define the ANI number itself.
Am I missing something?
Thanks.

Since 4 years had passed, I doubt this will ever be addressed to properly.
I have since acquired the vendor software to change this setting. Used to be upon request from Baofeng Tech, but the link has been removed.

Use the DTMF Codes (1 - 15). They are basically the same thing as ANI. There are 15 DTMF codes to choose from. DTMF Codes are a per-channel setting (DTMF Code 1 could be used on channel 1, DTMF Code 2 could be used on channel 21, etc). ANI if it was implemented, is global (the same on all channels) and requires that you still program a DTMF Code for it to piggyback upon.
So what are you trying to do that you can't do with one or move of the 15 DTMF codes?

This issue came up because a user by Scott Turned emailed me regarding to this issue yesterday. As for what I was doing, it was something I was working on 4 years ago for a fairly complicated set up for use at a convention. I believe if the function is there, then it should be available regardless the reason.
It's really a moot point now since we are able to define it using the software I've attached.
also, according to the same user, Btech support no longer seem to be aware of the existence of this piece of code. I only happen to have gotten it from them years ago because I had a discussion with their tech regarding this issue , as well as access to a hidden administrative menu on the radio, accessible via the front panel.

How are you configuring ANI with the OEM software? It has a place to edit the ANI code but it doesn't have a place to enable it. That is why it was left off.
