Out of band CP180

[iulisan]

Hello . Does anybody knows how to program out of band the following model : MOTOROLA CP180 ( MDH65KDH9AA4AN ) 146-174 MHZ ? I understand that CP040 can be tricked by changing some data in codeplug as follows :
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The task: Program CP040 H50KDC9AA1AN 146-174 at 145.500 MHz.
Read radio with CPS and save file codeplug.cps.
Open file codeplug.cps in HexWorkshop, find Hex "BBA5A5A5A5A5A5".
You will find it three times.
First entry is "A4A5A6BBA5A5A5A5A5A5". It is Motorola VHF Base frequency - 103.000000 MHz.
Second entry is "A4A1A3BBA5A5A5A5A5A5". It is lower limit - 146.000000 MHz.
Third entry is "A4A2A1BBA5A5A5A5A5A5". It is upper limit - 174.000000 MHz.
So alphabet seems as follows:
A1 = 4
A2 = 7
A3 = 6
A4 = 1
A5 = 0
A6 = 3
AD = 8
BB = "."
Change lower limit to "A4A1A1..." and save file.
Open file with CPS , enter frequences and program radio. Save codeplug on disk.

Problems: Radio possible to program ONLY ONCE.
Radio works orderly, but is not read and is not programmed by CPS.
Needed to save data from EEPROM IC and restore at need of reprogramming,
or use Radio Firmware Kit.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Thank you.

Messing arround with the codeplug is too painfull. read up on hexing the >exe from batlabs.The basic steps can be learned from reading the Gp300 page. Once you have the concept read the spectra page and then use the info there to mod the CP180 exe.

Thanks gary but i'm looking for a answer and it seems that : "hexing the >exe from batlabs" will not work so if anyone knows the answer , please post. Thanks.

Try the old trick of typing the frequency numbers with the shift key held down. Don't hold the shift key for the period, just for the numbers. It works on some radios and not on others.
