ASTRO 25 Radio pdf manual download. “FLASHing” Procedure (CPS) “FLASHing” or upgrading your radio requires the Customer Programming Software (CPS) which is used during normal radio programming and servicing procedures.
ASTRO 25 Tuner R05.04.03
- Windows 7 is supported in R15.00.00 CPS and higher.
- The vendor has phased out support for the parallel port adapter DS1410E. Therefore
Motorola does not support the parallel port on Windows 7 or x64 bit machines.
- If both portable and mobile CPS's are used, it is recommended to update
both at the same time, and tutorials should be installed with BOTH versions.
- POP25 feature is NOT supported with VISTA operating system.
New CPS Features Supported:
- Conventional Channel Revert with Emergency on Trunking Channel
This feature provides the ability to revert to a conventional channel when
the emergency button on the radio is pressed while the radio is on a trunking
channel. When the emergency is exited, the radio will return to the original
talkgroup channel.
Detailed information for each of these features can be found in the CPS
help. Help can be accessed from the CPS menu by selecting Help-> CPS Help
Topics.
New Radio Features Supported:
IMPORTANT NOTE: Firmware version R17.01.01 is required for the following features to
work in the radio:
- Conventional Channel Revert with Emergency on Trunking Channel

Astro 25 Programming Software
Peripherals Microsoft Windows supported Mouse or TrackballMicrosoft Windows supported Serial Port
for radio communication
Microsoft Windows supported Printer Port
for report printing
CD-ROM for software installation
NOTE: For computers that are not equipped with
a serial port, radio communications may be
possible with the use of an off-the-shelf
USB to RS232 converter, such as the IOGEAR
USB to Serial/PDA Converter Cable.
Known Issues:
1) Drop down items in table fields cannot be accessed when using Windows XP
Professional 'Windows XP Style' display. If this issue is encountered,
change the display setting to 'Windows Classic Style' for proper
functionality.
2) Attempting to Read from or Write to a radio with the CPS while the Tuner,
Data Link Manager, or synchronization software for a PDA is open and
communicating with a radio will cause a communication failure.
3) Due to French import laws, the Microsoft encryption support used to
create archive (.cpg) files with the CPS (Customer Programming Software)
is not available on the French version of the Windows Operating Systems.
Therefore, there is no way to save archive files when the CPS is
installed on the French version of Windows. Until import laws are
changed such that Microsoft can provide encryption support, this feature
can not be addressed.
4) Under Tools->FLASHport->Read Radio Configuration, closing the dialog box
by pressing the 'X' in the upper right of the dialog while the application
is still busy (the cursor is shaped like an hourglass) may terminate the
application.
5) Memory issues have been reported when 3 or more sessions of the CPS are
open at the same time.
6) Please install the CPS before attempting to connect the radio to the PC
using the USB cable.
7) If Logitech MouseWare version 9.76 is installed on the PC, it causes
Tools>Reports to fail and enter corrupt data in the registry. This occurs
when an ampersand is entered as part of a Zone Channel name. If the
MouseWare is either removed or upgraded to MouseWare version 9.79.1 or
later, it resolves the problem.
8) Once starting to read or write codeplug via POP25, the process can't
be cancelled. Depending on the size of codeplug, this process could
take long time (3 to 8 minutes).
9) Please avoid saving an invalid codeplug with '~' characters in table fields.
Doing so may cause the application to terminate.
10) If an Advanced System Key(ASK) fails to load, close the currently open
codeplug and reopen it. The System Key should be active, even though an error
message may appear.
11) When formatting an Advanced System Key, the 'Initialize' message may appear
several times. Please select 'Cancel' to proceed.
12) 'Failsoft Connect Tone' field can only be Advanced System Key protected if
'Connect Tone' is also protected. Specific protection for this field is not
supported.
13) Voice Files do NOT get copied when using POP25 feature.
14) 'Preset Zone and Channel Enable' should NOT be enabled when using a DTMF
mic.
15) Help files may not open after importing a csv file. If so, close and re-open
CPS for the help files to open successfully.
16) Codeplug archive names should not exceed 30 characters on Windows 7 and VISTA.
17) Users of the Network Radio Programmer on Windows 7 64-bit machines may see a
'Program Compatibility Assistant' popup displayed during installation. This is
due to Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 compatibility issues with those machines.
After continuing the installation by clicking the 'Run program' button on the popup,
the Network Radio Programmer feature can still be used on the machine.
18) Attempting to Read from or Write to a radio with the CPS before the radio has
enumerated will cause a communication failure.
19) Please note that the 'Emergency Revert Channel' field in the ASTRO tab
for each Conventional Personality will become invalid if it references a
Channel whose system is a DVRS ASTRO System with Dynamic Regrouping Enabled.
Installation:
1) It is no longer required that the previous version of the application be
uninstalled before installing this release. Note that this does not allow
multiple versions to be installed, rather the already installed application
will be upgraded.
2) When the Installation CD is inserted into the CD-ROM drive, the
installation will start automatically if auto start is enabled for
the PC. Follow the on-screen instructions to install the software.
3) Please refer to the CPS Programming Installation Guide, which is
included with this software for more detailed information.
4) If a file installed by the CPS later becomes corrupted, the Repair
option on the Installation CD may be used to restore it. It is very
important that the Installation CD for the same version that is
installed on the computer is used for Repair. Use of a different
version in an attempt to Repair an installation will result in further
corruption.
5) If the PC has never had a 1-Wire USB device connected to it before, such
as the USB dongle used for FLASHkeys or Advanced keys, then plug it in right
after installation to complete the USB install. If it is not recognized or if
auto-detect can not locate the USB device driver, then point the New Hardware
Wizard's Driver installer to it in the install drive, such as
'C:'. The wizard should then find and install the driver automatically.
Connecting the PC to the Radio:
Do not use the Radio Interface Box (RIB), Smart Radio Interface Box (SRIB)
or any of the cables that plug into those boxes. Use only the following
direct PC to radio cables:
XTS 5000 / XTS 2500 / SSE 5000 / XTS 1500 / MT 1500 / PR 1500:
RS232 cable = RKN4106
USB cable = RKN4105
XTS 4000:
RS232 cable = NKN1027A
USB cable = NKN1029A
When using the USB cable, be sure to always click 'Yes' on the Digital
Signature window whenever it is displayed by the operating system. Note
that the USB cable can be used only with Windows XP Service Pack 1 or higher operating
systems. The CPS or Tuner application must first be installed before attaching the USB
cable and turning the radio on.
For additional cables information, go to Help-> CPS help topics -> Index ->
Part Numbers.
For POP25 Operation:
TCP Retransmissions on your machine needs to be set to 5 or higher. Motorola
recommends that if the following registry keys are defined on your system,
they be set to the following values for POP25 operation:
On Windows 7, Windows Vista and XP:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
SYSTEM
CurrentControlSet
Services
Tcpip
Parameters
TcpMaxDataRetransmissions - 5 or more
On XP Only:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
SYSTEM
CurrentControlSet
Services
Tcpip
Parameters
TcpMaxConnectRetransmissions - 3 or more
For help on editing registry values, read Microsoft online support at http://support.microsoft.com
/kb/256986.
- While the POP25 operation is in progress, do NOT attempt to start a second session until the first is done.
- In order to do a differential write during POP25 (OTAP), the radio must
first be read via POP25 and then written using the CPS Write Device function.
Differential write is only effective for one read/write session. After one
differential write, the radio must be read again to perform another
differential write otherwise a full write will be done for subsequent writes.
Note: Differential write is not supported for any Clone feature. When doing
a Clone operation or Full write to a radio, please ensure that the
'Update Only Modified Fields via OTAP' field in
View -> Options -> POP25 Parameters page is NOT enabled.
Programming Hints:
1) For trunking customers, the first time the CPS is started, navigate to the
User Settings Dialog under the Tools menu and set up the directories where
the system key files will be stored.
2) To retrieve data from XTS 3000 or ASTRO Saber codeplugs, first read
the codeplug into the ASTRO Saber / XTS 3000 CPS and use the top node
drag and drop feature to copy the data into the XTS 5000 or XTS 2500
codeplug. Drag and drop is a very powerful and time-saving tool, but the
data should always be verified before writing to a radio. The Drag and
Drop Report can help with this verification. Please view the Drag and
Drop Tutorial included in Help for more information.
3) To get help on a field, press F1 while focus is on the field, or click on
the Help button on the tool bar (an Arrow with a question mark) and then
click on the field for which help is desired.
4) For more information on the features available in the Windows CPS, we
suggest viewing the audio-visual help tutorials. They can be accessed
from the CPS menu by selecting Help->CPS Help Topics, and then double-
clicking on CPS-User..Audio & Video Tutorials, then The Tutorials Menu.
Then select the appropriate tutorial.

1) When you insert the Installation CD into the CD-ROM drive, the
installation will start automatically if you have auto start enabled
for your PC. Follow the on-screen instructions to install the software.
2) Please refer to the CPS Programming Installation Guide, which you
received with this software for more detailed information. It is
essential to follow these instructions in order for communication
between the PC and radio to work properly.
Connecting the PC to the radio:
Do not use the Radio Interface Box (RIB), Smart Radio Interface
Box (SRIB) or any of the cables that plug into those boxes.
Use only the following direct PC to radio cables:
XTS 1500/ XTS 2000 / ATS 3000/ XTS 2500/ XTS 5000/ MT 1500/ PR 1500 RS232 cable = RKN4106
XTS 1500/ XTS 2000 / ATS 3000/ XTS 2500/ XTS 5000/ MT 1500/ PR 1500 USB cable = RKN4105
SSE 5000 RS232 cable = RKN4122
SSE 5000 USB cable = RKN4121
ASTRO Spectra Plus / XTL 5000 RS232 cable = HKN6155
XTL 5000 (with 'O5' Control Head)/
XTL 2500/ XTL 1500/ PM 1500 RS232 GCAI cable = HKN6183
XTL 5000 (with 'O5' Control Head)/
XTL 2500/ XTL 1500/ PM 1500 USB GCAI cable = HKN6184
HPD 1000 USB Cable = HKN6177A (6 ft) or HKN6178A (16.5 ft)
Note: When using the USB cable, be sure to always click 'Yes' on the
Digital Signature window whenever it is displayed by the operating system.
Note that the USB cable can be used only with Windows XP Service Pack 1 or
higher.
Known issues:
1) In the event that PC to radio communications fail even after
attempting to read the radio multiple times, it might be necessary
to reset the communications by either turning the radio off/on or
by disconnecting/reconnecting the cable connected to the radio.
2) PC to radio communications will sometimes fail if you attempt
to read the radio immediately after closing the previous tuning
session. Wait for the 'hourglass' to disappear before reading
the radio again.
3) When entering data in the Transmit Power Characterization screen,
the values used must be measured values, any other values might
generate unpredictable results.
4) The XTL radios and the HPD modem take longer to reset than
the ASTRO Spectra Plus radios. When tuning these radios, allow enough
time for the radio to reset before attempting to read/tune the radio
again.
5) During HPD BER testing, the Rx Frequency should NOT be changed while
the test is running. If the Rx Frequency needs to be changed, please
STOP the test, change the frequency, then start the test again.
6) During the HPD BER testing, it is not recomended to transmit while
the Rx test is running.
