SET MASTER and CROSS ENCODE CTCSS TONE or DCS CODE
This command is used to setup a master encode tone, this is a tone that is encoded regardless to the tone that was decoded.
The master encode is selected by omitting the cross decode tone number. Cross-encode is where you specify a specific encode
tone for each of the decode tones that you will be using. For an example, the controller can be set up so that when 100.0 Hz is
decoded, 127.3 Hz tone is encoded. Or when DCS code 023 is decoded, tone 151.4 Hz is encoded. This command also works
in conjunction with S-Command 25 to select the encode mode or when this tone or code is encoded. When setting up tones
for cross encode, a value of 000 in the tone encode field will force the controller to use the master tone for the selected decode
tone. To use the cross tone encoding mode, S-Command 22 must be set to mode 3.
Each tone or code has a number assigned to it as listed in the table in section 4.5.20. DCS is only available if you ordered
your controller with the DCS option installed.
SYNTAX:
21 [Encode Tone Number] <Decode Tone Number>
MINIMUM:
Encode 0 (No tone), Decode 0 (All tones)
MAXIMUM:
Encode and Decode 154 (DCS code 754)
UNITS:
Encode Tone Number 0 = No tone or Off, 0 = Master tone when decode tone is included, 001 - 154
Decode tone number (cross encode) is optional 0 = All decode tones, 0 – 154 tone number
DEFAULT:
Master tone = 013 (100.0 Hz tone), All cross encode tones = 0 (Select master tone)
EXAMPLE:
21 20
Sets master tone encode to 127.3 Hz
EXAMPLE:
21 0
Sets master tone encode to off
EXAMPLE:
21 013 020
Encode 100.0 Hz when 127.3 Hz is decoded
EXAMPLE:
21 025 041
Encode 151.4 Hz when DCS code 023 is decoded

TONE PANEL CTCSS TONE or DCS CODE ENCODE MODE
This command selects the CTCSS tone or DCS code, encode mode. Mode 0 will turn off all encoding. Mode 1 will encode
the master tone at all times. Modes 2 and 3 regenerate tones ONLY when valid COS/CTCSS tones are decoded on the
receiver input. Mode 2 is the most commonly used mode. Mode 3 can be used to cross encode, see S-Command 21. In all
modes, the controller stops encoding the tones ½ second before the PTT drops. Make sure you have S-Command 02 in mode
1 (HPF - CTCSS filter on) when using this command in Modes 1, 2, or 3. DCS is only available if you ordered your
controller with the DCS option installed.
SYNTAX:
22 [Mode]
MINIMUM:
0
MAXIMUM:
3
UNITS:
Mode 0 = Off or no tone encoded.
Mode 1 = Encode tone is on all the time (encode tone or code is selected by master tone).
Mode 2 = Controller regenerates last DECODED tone or code.
Mode 3 = Controller encodes tone or code selected by S-Command 21 (cross encoding).
DEFAULT:
Mode 2, Regenerate last decoded tone or code
EXAMPLE:
22 0
Turns CTCSS / DCS encode off
22 1
Enables CTCSS / DCS encode on at all times.
