Entry Level CPS's

I have a CP185 in my shop, cant get around the password on the cpg. Does anyone have a listing for the CPS Password Workarounds for the Entry Level Software?

Find out who programmed it last and ask them.

Why didnt I think of that... We took over the account from a shop that does not exist anymore.

I'm not familiar with that particular radio, but have you tried simply uploading your own programming to the radio? I believe it would allow you to programming the radio to your specs irregardless to the previous codeplugs password

So, this is a shot in the dark, but the CPS for the CP185 looks an awful lot like the TRBO CPS. However that being said, it looks like it takes serial-based programming cables so I highly doubt it talks via a network device like the TRBO radios do.

Any chance you tried the trick where you get to the point where the CPS prompts you for a password, then take a look at what's loaded into RAM via a HEX editor? The older Moto radios loaded the codeplug into RAM, got to a point where a flag was "ticked" saying it was password time, then just did a string match on the password in the codeplug (plain text). Not sure if the Entry Level radios do that, but it's worth a shot if writing a blank codeplug into the radio isn't an option.

Again, I know this worked on the Entry Level Professional (CT2xx/4xx), Commercial, and Waris-series stuff....
