DMR-6X2 Pro Support

[thom1879]

Are there any plans for support for the BTECH DMR-6X2 Pro Model?

If the DMR-6X2 Pro relates to the DMR-6X2 like the Pro versions of the D878UV relate to the originals, the DMR-6X2 Pro should work out of the box. If the device, however, is not detected, I need to investigate that. Then, the Pro device identifies itself differently to the CPS and there might be some differences in the codeplug structure.

Is that the same model as in #260 ?

Yes, thanks, I didn’t see that.

For the time until qdmr supports the DMR-6X2 Pro: I remember to have read that you can flash the corresponding Anytone firmware on the device - http://anytonetechzone.byethost7.com/878techmods.htm has some hints. I do not know whether that works without exchanging the boot loader (which means opening the device), which was needed when "upgrading" from an 868 or DMR-6X2 to an 878 (https://www.f5uii.net/en/convert-at-d868uv-to-at-d878uv-analog-aprs-roaming/)
