What are 10-Codes?

The 10-Codes page holds the code list your units and dispatchers pick from on calls and see in the 10-codes reference window. You can have up to 150 codes. Open Customization → 10-Codes in the CAD admin panel. Changes are kept as a draft until you click Save Changes (Ctrl + S).

10-Codes

​
Adding Codes

1

Add a code

Click New code.
2

Name and define it

Enter a name, like 10-4 (2 to 12 characters), and a definition, like Affirmative (3 to 48 characters). Code names must be unique.
3

Order and save

Use the arrows to reorder, then click Save Changes.
When an officer starts a traffic stop, the CAD uses the first code whose definition matches “traffic stop”, so keep one in your list.

​
Pasting a Whole List

Paste a list into any Name field, one code per line, and Melonly splits each line into a code and definition. All of these work:
Bullet points are stripped, and a line without a code is added to the previous definition.

​
Importing from Sonoran CAD

1

Export from Sonoran

Export your 10-codes from Sonoran CAD as a JSON file.
2

Start the import

Click Import from Sonoran CAD and enter the separator between code and meaning (for 10-4: Affirmative it’s :).
3

Upload

Upload the file and click Import ten codes.
The import replaces every existing code and saves straight away, so Reset can’t undo it.
