The PD502i is the entry-level model with 32 channels and 3 zones, suited for straightforward single-site deployments. The PD562i adds a full alphanumeric display, 256 channels, 16 zones, and an enhanced keypad — making it the better choice for larger fleets, multi-site systems, or deployments requiring text messaging and contact management on the radio. Did Hytera replace the PD502i and PD562i? Yes. Hytera released the HP602 as the modernized replacement for the PD502i, and the HP682 as the replacement for the PD562i. Both offer enhanced digital features, improved audio, and more rugged designs. Contact Atlantic Radio to explore HP6 series options for your fleet. Do the PD502i and PD562i need to be programmed before use? Yes. Both radios must be programmed with your licensed frequencies before use. You’ll be asked at checkout whether you’d like programming, or you can add it via our Atlantic Radio Programming Services page. To program yourself, you’ll need the Hytera CPS software and a PC63 programming cable, both sold separately. Are the PD502i and PD562i still available? Both models are End-of-Life and have been discontinued by Hytera. Atlantic Radio has remaining refurbished stock available while supplies last. Contact us to confirm current availability before ordering. Can the PD502i and PD562i work with existing analog radios? Yes. Both radios operate in analog and digital (DMR) mode, allowing them to communicate with existing analog radios while you transition your fleet to digital over time. What is the UL913 version and do I need it? The UL913 version is intrinsically safe and certified for use in hazardous locations where flammable gases, vapors, or dust may be present — such as oil and gas facilities, chemical plants, or grain handling operations. If your environment does not have these hazards, the standard version is appropriate. What licenses are required for Priority Interrupt and Remote Monitor features? Priority Interrupt, Remote Monitor, and Radio Enable/Disable features require the Hytera SW00051 software license. Contact Atlantic Radio for licensing options and pricing. Warranty Refurbished units are covered by a 1-year warranty. As End-of-Life products, warranty service and parts availability may be limited.
