1. Reading the Radio
- Connect the radio and turn it on.
- Open CPS 20. Click "Read" on the ribbon.
- The software will detect the model (e.g., XPR 7580e) and download the current codeplug.
- Always read the radio first before writing. This creates a backup.
Error 3: "Invalid System Key"
- Problem: You installed CPS 20 but haven't entered your entitlement ID.
- Fix: In CPS, go to
Help->License Management. Enter the 20-character key provided by Motorola. Without this, the "Write" button remains greyed out.
