The 652 is really a PRO-197 with a new name - so anything applying to the 197 works here.

This article from our wiki has links (always blue) to just about everything you need to know to get started...

The only thing that will NOT work from the 197 to the 652 (and the 106 to 651) is the firmware files. Many people have tried and have effectively bricked their scanners trying to update the firmware.

Give WIN500 a try

There are several software programs that make programming scanners much easier. The programs provide a Trial period of use of 30 days before you have to pay to keep using them.

The program that I'd recommend is WIN500. Here's a link to the WIN500 web page:
Win500: WS1040, WS1065, PSR-500, PSR-600, PRO-651, PRO-652, PRO-106, PRO-197, PSR-310, PSR-410 Scanner Software for Data Management, Monitoring, and Control

I've found WIN500 to be very intuitive and easy to use.
