Start here:

Then go on to a search on this Board for P200.

On the P200 radios, (unless of course, the tags were not on the radio when bought), most of them come with the info already on the back. The info included on the back of the radio should be: the model number, serial number, as well as the info. on what band the radio is, along with the frequency. Any more info, goes as the others have already stated, do a board search, you will come up with a LOT of info.
Good luck !

Belated Thanks Folks ...
Though not much into electronics... as per this url ... http://batlabs.com/ht600pin.html
Can I just homebrew a cable, connect to the necessary pins at the P200 Radio end and the other end to the 9 pin male which will go to my computer and use the P200(low band) RSS ver D03.00.01 and program the radio for 2m use ???

Hope somebody can guide me if I am off track...

Thanks

You'll need an interface(RIB) to insert between your programming cable and your PC's serial port. And you'll need a PC that runs at an appropriate speed taking into account the version number of your RSS. Early versions of the RSS used only a single timing mechanism to pace reads from and writes to the radio interface, while later versions used dual timing loops allowing them to run properly on faster PCs. You can try the LB version of the RSS that you have, but I doubt that it'll allow a VHF hiband radio to be read or written because of the noncompatible bandsplits built into the LB version.
