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.

Can someone explain what 16 actually does?
Dumb related question. My 100P lists most features by name, not number. Is there a way to read the features in RPM and associate them with the number, or get more information. Such as mine lists GPS, Bluetooth, then CERT 1 (unknown what that one is), then 54. I have to assume it is is a feature between 50 and 54, but doesn't quite make sense to me. Same earlier in the list, shows P25 Conventional, Encryption, Trunking. I have to assume Encryption is item AES, however, under Radio Info AES and DES also list (NONE).
Cert is 52 C-TICK certified operation.
‘Encryption’ on unity means AES and DES

To be clear, there’s no hardware module on a separate board to install or anything. You need software ENC modules that you can load at will, just like burn/boot/firmware… you just need to get them from your dealer.

Edit: Also, option 37 is all that’s required to do full multikey AES and DES encryption. Those higher feature codes are for single key DES or AES (also 61 is ARC4), so those are all of your encryption options, with 37 being the most full-featured…

That would be similar to the packet data option on Motorola.
There is no feature number listing available in RPM or the Maintenance Utility. If you had a mobile you could read them out by number if you had a CH-721 head but the CH-100 head acts the same as the 100P and gives you (mostly) names. A theory about why some are named and some numbered is that the numbered options were made compatible late in the product/firmware life.
CERT 1 is European ETSI certification, not Australian C-Tick. It's an empty feature just to show certification, there is no functionality added or removed.
Remember that not all features apply to all radios in the Harris MA/Com lineup. The feature codes aren’t bespoke to any one model. Reading the release notes for the firmware version you are running is the best way to glean what requires a feature code and what is included in the particular firmware you use. 16 is old…

16 is still a valid Unity option. It shows up on a 100P as 'P25 DATA'
But yes BMDaug is correct, not everything applies to all radios and many are old and deprecated. Everyone wants 34 in their radio and don't even realize it's baked in on the Unity line and just requires setting a maintenance password in RPM option.

I didn’t say it was deprecated, just that they pretty much go in order chronologically. They have been added to and added to up until the XL line came out. Now it’s an encrypted xml file…

I didn't say you said it was. I said many are, such as 34. 34 is newer than 16 and while 34 does not apply the older 16 feature does apply to Unity. So what order they went on the list is immaterial.
And I didn’t say it was material… it’s just an example of how the feature codes work. I said three words and somehow prompted paragraphs of debate LOL!
Bottom line: Harris MA/Com piled on features for 20 some odd years and the only way to know what applies to your radio is to READ THE RELEASE NOTES.

Since the XG-100P doesn't support Single-Key DES or Single-Key AES. Only ENCRYPTION (Multi-Key) AES-256, DES-OFB, and DES-CFB would apply to it.
Also, some of those features only applied to the older 40-Bit feature encryption and others only apply to the newer 80-Bit feature encryption.

It doesn't support either. That's why there is no provision in RPM to create or select the single AES or DES keys. The same is true with ARC4/RC4 keys. You can add every feature code to the XG-100P feature list. The demo units had every feature code enabled in the feature list on those.
Is EDACS, ProVoice, OpenSky etc... supported ? Nope.
