Question

What is a TDFM or TFM radio?  How are they programmed?  

Answer

The TDFM is a product made by Technisonic that incorporates multiple radios into a single chassis with a common interface.   There are several models of TDFM, that incorporate different models and quantities of radios.

Because the radios inside the TDFM can be Motorola APX radios, those radios are programmed using APX Customer Programming software (CPS) and support for the general configuration and programming of the radios is provided by Motorola Solutions via the standard support methods for APX products.

Support for the hardware, physical connectivity, warranty and general support questions should be directed to Technisonic's support resources located here :  https://til.ca/

The Technisonic site also contains interface programming guides and default codeplugs for use in the device.
