Out of band hex edit for digital radio CPS

[yelmarb]

I've managed to hack analogue CPS programs to push the the frequency range of a given radio - i.e. 470Mhz - 490Mhz. But... just been trying this with a Mototrbo CPS and I'm not finding any joy.

This CPS has an upper limit of 470 but when I convert this to a hex format it can't find any instances. Converting 470000000 that is. I've tried a number of different options - 470, 471 472 etc but still no luck.

I would assume that the Astro software would be similar to the Mototrbo. Has anyone successfully hex edited these programs?

[yelmarb]

Just looked at some of my other CPS programs and noticed that the Commercial Series CPS for CM300 etc is the same. It's the same type of software and I can't hack that either. Just can't seem to get any instances of 470mhz realized. I've tried shift clicking and seeing if there was a higher limit... say 477 but just can't get any hex number to be recognized. Couldn't get the lower limits either.

You can look in the encrypted xml files,for that what you need.
Get the Mantisware TripleDES encryptor to decrypt/encrypt the files!
The password is: HAVNCPSLTDTUNERAIRTRACER

Thanks Andreas. Are you able to walk me through it as I'm an absolute novice at this.

So after I download Mantisware TripleDES, I'll then open up the encrypted xml files with the password. And then what should I do...

[AlexR]

Confirm, that's the right way for out-of-band
(and power levels as well) in Mototrbo.
The last thing to do is CRC in Security Block.

[yelmarb]

All sounding very good. But how do I "CRC in Security Block?"

[Andreas]

You have to decrypt the codeplug and edit 470.000000</RS_BANDMAXFREQ into 477.000000.
Encrytpt the codeplug and load it with the CPS.

Hello, Andreas!

TRBO codeplugs - this is encrypted XML data???

Or you mention others XML files?

[Andreas]

Yes,the codeplug and some other files are encrypted XML scripts.
Look at my homepage for the complete out of band edit!I updated it a few days ago.

Traditionally in german? :)

Yes!

This triplDes password has changed in the later version of the Mototrbo cps.
Any Idea on what it has changed to ?

[AlexR]

Yes, in CPS 4.6 the encryption has been changed (AES?). Also signatures added to each
encrypted XML document.
