I am a newbie to programming radios and have done a large amount of research. I have recently set up a motorola account. I am looking for CPS to read and write to my Astro Spectra. The last CPS used was R05.03.00. When I look on MOL, I can't find the CPS listed under Astro Spectra. Does anyone know if this CPS is still available from MOL? Any help is appreciated.

Re: Astro Spectra CPS
Did you just set up a MOL account, or did you also purchase the software subscription for the needed CPS?

If your radio has old firmware, programming it with the latest CPS will not add any new features unless you have the latest firmware to match..
CPS = Customer Programming Software, Not CPS Software.

Re: Astro Spectra CPS
I just recently set it up and was looking where to find the item number and purchase a subscription.

Re: Astro Spectra CPS
When I did it last year, my account was set up, but I needed to accept the Software License Agreement before I could find the part number. Go to "Resource Center", "Software Support" and find the license agreement. Assuming you agree, accept it and you'll get an email in a day or two with an acknowledgement. Then, you should be able to add it to your cart and purchase it. Generally, I've been able to download it from the Resource Center directly once the order gets marked as "shipped." Saves a few days waiting for the physical disk.

Re: Astro Spectra CPS
I accepted the license agreement on monday march 7. I have been checking back periodically and have not seen it listed under astro spectra when I browse the catalog. I have tried putting in some item numbers that I have found on line and tried doing a search for them. All the ones I found show up as cancelled. Right now it is not even showing the programming/software menu for astro spectra. Any ideas? Am I not doing something correctly?
Thanks for the help.

Contact Motorola (800) 814-0601, and explain the issue you are having with the CPS not showing up in your MOL menu... They should be able to turn it on for download if your subscription is current, and you have a software agreement on file. RVN4183 is the Astro Spectra mobile CPS, and it's showing available for purchase.

Re: Astro Spectra CPS
For my account, software did not show up under Astro Spectra under resource center/software/2 way/astro spectra until I purchased it. It also showed up under software support/subscriptions after it was purchased.scoutss392 wrote:I accepted the license agreement on monday march 7.
