RSS will let you assign a function (like RSS) to multiple pins, but the radio won't work properly if you do that (the programmer that created that RSS forgot to check for that). Before you upload a new codeplug to a radio you need to review the programming and make sure that you haven't multiply assigned a function. And note that some pins pull down, and some pull up. Pin 4 pulls up, pin 8 and 14 both pull down. Some are output only, some are input only, and some are bidirectional.
