• To anyone looking to acquire commercial radio programming software:

    Please do not make requests for copies of radio programming software which is sold (or was sold) by the manufacturer for any monetary value. All requests will be deleted and a forum infraction issued. Making a request such as this is attempting to engage in software piracy and this forum cannot be involved or associated with this activity. The same goes for any private transaction via Private Message. Even if you attempt to engage in this activity in PM's we will still enforce the forum rules. Your PM's are not private and the administration has the right to read them if there's a hint to criminal activity.

    If you are having trouble legally obtaining software please state so. We do not want any hurt feelings when your vague post is mistaken for a free request. It is YOUR responsibility to properly word your request.

    To obtain Motorola software see the Sticky in the Motorola forum.

    The various other vendors often permit their dealers to sell the software online (i.e., Kenwood). Please use Google or some other search engine to find a dealer that sells the software. Typically each series or individual radio requires its own software package. Often the Kenwood software is less than $100 so don't be a cheapskate; just purchase it.

    For M/A Com/Harris/GE, etc: there are two software packages that program all current and past radios. One package is for conventional programming and the other for trunked programming. The trunked package is in upwards of $2,500. The conventional package is more reasonable though is still several hundred dollars. The benefit is you do not need multiple versions for each radio (unlike Motorola).

    This is a large and very visible forum. We cannot jeopardize the ability to provide the RadioReference services by allowing this activity to occur. Please respect this.

You have to “purchase” for zero dollars it in the shop *AND* the entitlement conferred on your account *FIRST* or else it will not be visible to you in MyView. To find it in the shop to purchase it you first need to login to the shop itself. The "Motorola Shop" and “MyView” are not the same website and require separate sign-ins.

it worked

but it says no job running in device programmer dm me pls

And just to be certain we are starting from the same place, you have all these programs installed on the computer you are working from:

I can get RM Device Monitor, Job Processor Config, and Config Client to install, but every time the Server Utility tries to install, I either get a "Failed to copy files," "Encryption Error," or "Failed to manipulate" error. can anyone help with this because MSI sure can't

Just what I needed an update on the SI500. Thanks to oSPANNERo for the write up ! Pretty straight forward once get all the SW needed. I was able to activate a unit that I have had DOA for years ! Works as advertised but one issue I seem to have found. The DOA unit that I have revived has firmware 2.60.00 It would appear that while connected to a APX wirelessly when PTT'd the mic audio is muted almost 90% ?? I hook the mic up via cable and no prob. Recorded video audio no prob. Record audio no prob. Just TX audio while wireless. I have a unit with firm 2.10.02 I have no prob with that one. I just need to do the factory reset and reconfigure for the SD option. I thought I would play with the DOA unit first just to test the process. Yes I have tried down grading firmware it push's and downloads to SI but after the SI reboots you get an error, pulled the batt. it reboots just fine back into 2.60.00
Was you able to figure out the mic almost completely muted issue? I have 3 of these all with different firmware but this same issue.

I am having issue with almost completely muted only when used in Bluetooth mode after firmware update. I have 3 of these, the si500 running 2.60.00 firmware being the worst 2.20.02 works but seems that gain is down on mic. I played with Bluetooth mic gain setting in APX radio with no success. Has anyone solved this problem?

Hello?
I have a Motorola Si500 (not the LTE version).
When I turn on the power, there is the QR code recognition screen appears and nothing happens.
I read all the posts in here.
I tried to find the Radio Manager program based on the information you provided, but when I clicked on the link, I couldn't see the page.
It said "Unable to access
You are not authorized to view this page."
Would you please help me?
and Have a happy day to everybody in here :)

That likely means you were not logged into the Motorola store. To log in you need an account. If you don’t have an account you need to follow these instructions:

Thank you so much for your reply! :love:
I logged in to the Motorola Store, but it seems like I don't have permission.
When I try to download the program, I only see the screen below.
I don't know what to do.
Please help me :cry:

I just checked and it’s working for me. I would suggest opening a support ticket with Moto and asking them to look at your permissions in the shop:

Right behind you !!
I have not found a fix for the bluetooth audio loss with the newer SI500 firmware myself. But it looks like tomsr1971 may have with newer CPS and radio firmware I am thinking ? I can see the new bluetooth feild with CPS ver 33 but it is grayed out.

Thank you so much for your help and kindness.
How are you? :giggle:
I've been very busy with work lately.
and I'm happy to be able to write today.
Finally I found "Si500 Radio Management Administration"
Can I use the Si500 through this program?
Do I have to purchase it?
and I have 2 of Si500s. Should I buy two of these?
The cost is not small, so I want to know for sure before purchasing.
Have a happy day for you :love:
