NX-5700 Programing Software

[kgood11]

Anybody know what the NX-5700 programing software is called? We just picked up four of them and I need to get them programmed but I'm having a heck of a time getting the right software from our Kenwood distributor. They continually send me the wrong stuff.

Also, anyone know of some good resources to learn how to use the software once I get ahold of it?

KPG-D1N
Trial and error is how I learned. It's complicated and has a pretty steep learning curve compared to the previous versions of Kenwood's programming software.

Wow, that’s surprising. No training anywhere, huh? Okay, thanks for the heads up.

Yup that is what I use on my nx5200 and nx5300

Kenwood does training, but it'll be out of their offices, not the dealers. If you have a good dealer, you may be able to buy the software and get them to have a tech sit with you for a bit and walk you through it.

Be aware, Kenwood changed their setup with the KPG-D1n, D2n, and D3n softwares. It's now tied to a specific computer and if you want to run it on multiple PC's you have to buy a software license for each one. Annoying, but their way of dealing with people selling pirated software online.

in addition to this mmckenna, you need to have a copy of your PC information, coz if your PC toasted and your activation still activate in that pc, you have a copy to send to the kenwood that you need to recover your activation key.

What PC info do they want? I've moved software from my old PC to my new one, but my old PC was still mostly working so i could free up the license.

Did you remove the license key 1st on the old pc
