PROGRAMMING FEATURES
CUSTOMER PROGRAMMING SOFTWARE
(CPS)
Figure 1: Setting up the radio to the CPS
The easiest way to program or change features in
your radio is by using the Customer Programming
Software (CPS) and the CPS Programming Cable(*).
CPS Software is available for free as web based
downloadable software at:
www.motorolasolutions.com/RDX
To program, connect the RM Series radio via the
Drop-in Charger Tray and CPS Programming Cable
as shown in Figure 1 on page 44. Toggle the cable
switch of the CPS Programming Cable to ‘CPS
Mode’.
CPS allows you to program frequencies, PL/DPL
Codes as well as other features such as: Bandwidth
Select, Time-out Timer, Power Select, Scan List, Call
Tones, Scramble, Reverse Burst, etc. CPS is a very
useful tool as it can also lock the Front-Panel Radio
Programming or restrict any specific radio feature to
be changed (to avoid accidentally erasing the preset
radio values). It also provides security by giving the
option to set up a password for profile radio’s
management. For more information, refer to Features
Summary Chart Section at the end of the User Guide.
Note: (*) CPS Programming Cable P/N#
HKKN4027_ is an accessory sold
separately. Please contact your Motorola
point of purchase for more information.
Time-Out Timer
This timer sets the amount of time that the radio can
continuously transmit before the transmission is
automatically terminated. The default setting is 60
seconds and can be changed using the CPS.
Power Select
Power Select allows you to select between high and
low transmission power per frequency in each
