  1. I need help programming my Motorola MCS2000.  When I attempt to read the radio I receive an error, "Communication with radio failed".

     

    Here's how I reproduce the issue:

    1. Connect radio with USB to radio's mic port
    2. Open MCS2000 CPS software
    3. Choose File > Read Device
    4. Select COM1 (the port associated with the USB cable), choose "OK"
    5. Receive error, "Communication with radio failed"

    Here's my setup:

    • Radio Model M01MX+713W
    • Radio ID M01SHL9PW4AN.
    • Software: MSC2000 CPS Ver. R02.02.00. 
    • Cable: MSC2000 FTDI USB Serial Cable (ordered from BlueMax49ers)
    • Cable USB driver: FTDI ver. 2.12.28.0 (Date: 8/16/2017)
    • Computer OS: Windows 7 Home Premium SP1, 64-bit Operating System

    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you,

  2. I just purchased a Kenwood TK-880 off of Ebay and a programming cable (BlueMax49ers FTDI USB Serial Cable).  I installed KPG-60D for windows and I get an error when I attempt to communicate with the radio.  I choose "Program" then "Read from Radio", and get error "Check radio type.  Retry or Cancel".  I verified the COM port.  The radio shows "Program", but the software isn't getting past this message.  On other forums I read that software KPG-49D is used for this radio.  I downloaded the program but it won't install on my Windows 7 PC.  Any assistance would be appreciated.  Thank you.
