New user here, looking for some help with Midland programming software.
I just installed the Midland programming package and have had no trouble with MRFP (firmware) or MRA (adjustments). However, I'm banging my head on a brick wall trying to get MRP P25 to cooperate with the dozens of ST-III's I need to update.
When I open the app, it starts off checking database file, which I have not loaded yet so it errors out. Then a pop-up window appears as "SQL Connection Login" and needing a username/password. It gives a default username of "sa" and blank password. If I cancel out 3 times or enter an arbitrary password, it errors out and locks me out of all programmer options, leaving me red in the face. I've tried numerous times to get through this or find a workaround but so far no luck. I've created blank databases and loaded my custom builds and pointed the software to those databases but the issue remains. I'm not even sure how to set username/password in my builds so I'm rightfully confused. I must be missing something somewhere, but I can't seem to find any sort of help in the app, online, Midland site, or in the manuals.
Midland tech support is rather... shaky. My understanding is that they have ONE lead engineer dealing with tech issues and I've already left a few colorful voicemails. Not finding much help there so I'm hoping there may be folks around here that can shed some light on my dilemma.
Not sure if these elements matter, but I'm on a Windows 7 64x machine
Any help is greatly appreciated!
