Or uploading other software or manuals foe download points to acquire the software. Basically required the user to pay in time spent either chatting on a virtually dead site. But also locating one that didn't have a virus, malware, ransom ware or some other malicious code, Further several copies that proved to be clean. The internet proved to be a bit of a bastard when locating not only the proper software. The downfall was i had no software to program the radio. The blessing came in not only the cost of the radio but the fact it had never seen service, So it was a factory fresh radio. If anyone is out there in Cyberspace that can help me, please.Some time ago I had the pleasure in adding an MCS2000 to my Radio Operations. I have checked at and they don't offer any suggestions other than the build a cable myself. As for my attempts, I am at a loss of what to do. I have a brother that I will see in a cpl of weeks that has a genuine Motorola RIB as we works in the Telco industry so I will see how well I go. I really do need help as this is fantastic radio but as I live in SA, I don't have a use for NSW freq's as I can't hear them. Now I am unsure if these messages are all because I am using a non genuine RIB Box and Serial/RJ45 cable (Kawa Mall = supplier) or if my Integrated Circuit has been fried. So I decided to try booting the software (DOS Version 3.00.00) from DOS 6.22 and when I read the data, I get a 'Failed Busy Line' error or ' Wrong Codeplug Loaded' error. When I try the DOS based version 3.00.00 under windows, the radio goes blank but when I attempt to read the radio data from MCS2000, I get either, 'bad checksum' error or ' Nak Error'.

I have selected every port in the computer I am using and still replicates the same error message.

The MSC2000 CPS software then also says 'communication with the radio failed'. The radio then goes dull (similar to being unpowered) and then it beeps 3 times with every time having a slight (less than millisecond) 'static' noise on coming from the speaker. When I am able to plug in the programming lead into the RJ45 Jack on the remote head and run the MSC2000 CPS, I get the letters 'CSQ' displayed on screen. I have a remote head and I also have non genuine RIB (Kawa Mall) that I am using to plug into the RJ45 Jack on the remote head. I have purchased a second hand UHF MCS2000 (Motorola) and I am trying to reprogram using the Motorola MCS2000 CPS software as well as the old DOS version 3.00.00 but to no avail. This is my first post and from what I can see, there are not that many Aussies on this forum so we all should stick together First of, please allow me to thank those who actually read my post.
