• 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.

I have a Vertex VXR-7000 I'm trying to program on ham band. I have the windows version 1.08 of the euro ce27 software and have been unsuccessful at changing the target path with the -d or /m to allow programming on ham bands. I have a bluemaxers49 cable, and can get it to read and write, but cannot get it to program on ham band, because i cannot get the dealer software to work. Can anyone help point me in the right direction?

That's what I get with-d /m and your shortcut. spaces, no spaces, quotations, doesn't matter. I haven't been able to find the right combo yet.

This is all I need to have full edit acccess to the .c27 file:
1787669143366.png
I am running Windows 11, and CE27 v. 1.08. -p is the only modifier.
No -d /m or anything else.

Of course, the program CE27 has to be located in "c:\Vertex Standard\CE27 for Windows"

Tried the "-d" argument in place of the -p. Same edit capability, but gives access the the call sign editing as well for CW ID.

Where did you get your software? Maybe my copy is missing the correct files.

I bought it from a Vertex Standard dealer directly back in the day when I bought the repeaters Started out with DOS, then Windows. Not much more than the .exe file, and associated help files. the .ini file is created when you first run the exe.

Your error in the screen post indicates that you do not have the CE27 executable in the directory that you are specifying, not an issue with CE27.
