Use the programming cable to plug radio into computer. After opening the CPS, your device(s) will display, along
with associated details: firmware version, serial number, and the profile currently saved to the radio.
Profiles are saved files that include every setting currently programmed to the radio, including frequencies and
privacy codes. These profiles are saved locally, and can be exported to be downloaded or emailed. A User can save
up to 99 Profiles within the software for future use. A radio does not need to be currently connected to create or
edit profiles.
Clicking on the three dots allows you to edit a profile (edit the radio settings stored in the profile), download a report
(download a PDF of all the settings in this profile) or export a profile (download a file that can then be saved, emailed,
sent to someone else). If a radio is connected, you can also write a profile to the device(s) you have currently
connected.
