Motorola XTL2500 Error

[viet5d]

You don't have to set it into programming mode to program it. If it is connected to the computer properly, when you click Read the radio will beep, switch from normal mode to programming mode, and show Program on the display.

Thanks for you help.
I have found that my Astro25 mobile CPS version is too old (R.12.00). It can not compatible with the radio (firmware, maybe).
Could you tell me the newest/latest CPS version ?
Thanks

Thanks Marshall...wasn't aware. I'll check MOL on Monday.

Is this a new radio? Or was it existing? Your CPS version is way old. We're up to 18.00.01 now. Probably why you can't connect to the radio if its new or newer. You can't read/write a newer radio with an old version of CPS.

You're right. My CPS is updated now (R18.00.03). The USB driver is installed automatically with new CPS version. everything is OK. Thanks for your suggestion.

You're right. It works properly with USB cable after installing new CPS version. Thanks for your advise.

PROGRAMING TUTORIAL

R19.01.00

Thanks MikeOxlong for version info !

I'm new with XTL2500 MOL radio. I want to program the radio to communicate with other one (same radio model) but I don't know where starting... Does anyone tell me step-by-step how to get this point ? I see the tutorial but it's not simple for me. Thanks !

If the radios are the same flashcode, then you can clone the radio. Read the radio you want to clone, then connect to the radio you want to clone to. Click Tools > Cloning > Clone Wizard. I don't have access to a mobile right now to detail the rest, but after you click Next I think you are given an option to change any MDC and Astro identifiers. After that there should be a write radio button.

Thanks for your help ! But both the radios (XTL2500) are NEW. Could I have some .cpg files (some where to download) for reference ?

Sample codeplugs should have come with your copy of CPS.

I don't see that.

CPS vs XTL2500

I'm receiving "USB error" message when trying to communicate with the XTL2500 from my CPS. (v19)

I'm using an Edgeport 1 USB convertor. What Com Port should my computer be set at?

Thanks!
