These Programs are used for updating to the beta versions of the CS800D PLUS firmware. I would expect you can try it on the CS800D but it was never tested. Some of these programs require the GPS module to work. When the programs are finished, they will then no longer be comptabile with the CS800D because of the size of the flash memory and other reasons.

None of these programs are completely runing but they should give you an idea of how they will work. The CPS cannot be used at this time. The various programs have default setting for what the CPS would normally set.

The manuals to use these programs are in the product section of the website under the CS800D PLUS radio at the bottom of the page.

Load the programs using Flash Burn 3.00 into the radio in the following order:

CS800D PLUS Firmware Version MS.45.76

CS800D PLUS Special Voice File

Load the data using CPS R4.04.11 into the radio in the following order.

Firmware MS40.54.bin

CPS R4.04.07.exe

Voice Packet 2015-03-23.zip

Code Plug with 260,000 contacts.zip

April 21 , 2023

There are a few radios that are having problems reading or writing their code plug. Usually changing the computer solves the problem.

 

If that does not work or you want to use a specific computer, you need to first run the RCDB version of the firmware and then update to MS40.54.

 

Running the RCDB version erases the voice prompts so they will have to be reloaded if you want voice prompts.

 

This new CPS solves a problem where if the number of contacts is too large then the program crashed.

This is the first release of the CPS for the CS800D PLUS. This firmware will not work with the standard CS800D for three reasons:

CS800D PLUS
