There is no real "step by step" manual ever put out by Motorola that I'm aware of which covers the programming of radios. I even had one competitor pay me to program their customer's HT750 radios back in the day because their tech couldn't figure it out. If you never programmed a radio before, the CDM series might be a little difficult to figure out. If you get super lucky they will also align and calibrate the radio. They probable have the hardware and software. Crap, said friend handed me 4 used 1250, with new in box accesories, hooked me up with someone who sold me original remote head kits.Īt absolute worse case, you can contact a lmr radio shop or talk to someone in the government radio shop. It was the only way I could get v12.05 for the cdma1250. If you can find a friend online or real life you should be able to get a copy. You still may need a ris programming box, not all do. It is still available Motorola, charges roughly $300 for it. I just can't afford $2500 for a 5 watt 10 year old handheld. They are part 90 and although fcc doesn't want you to they understand that radios are much better then the 90% of the garbage on the consumer market. I mean it cost so damn much, most of the cost. Exceptions are rare.Also beware of "some people" that will chastise you for even thinking about using an XTL5000 on GMRS and watch out for the "experts" telling you that you will go to jail if you get a copy of the XTL5000 software. Officially, they don't sell any flash upgrades to any secondary market radios. Getting flash upgrades is nearly impossible unless you're an original buyer of the radio from Motorola directly. Note that these flash decoding tools may not be completely accurate, your mileage may vary. The interactive version is pretty cool too. You may want to check out the Flash Code Decoder if you want to see what is included in a particular flash code.

The software is downloaded from Motorola's dealer services website (you have to be a dealer to log in). A SmartRIB is not necessary for this application.

For example, if you're talking about PRO radios, the HT and CDM series, you need the re-flash adaptor, HLN9742, and a regular RIB and the Programming/Flash cable, or you can delete the RIB and just use the RIB-less programming cable. You don't always need a SmartRIB to do a firmware upgrade. It really does depend on what kind of radio you are dealing with. Now, don't confuse flash upgrading with firmware upgrading. SmartZone trunking supposedly runs about a thousand dollars per radio upgrade, while some other options like Modat may be only 100 or so. They vary in price according to what options they add to a radio. Motorola is the only 'official' source of Flashport upgrades. The software file itself remains intact, but the key is rendered useless for any further upgrades. The file on disk is not useful anymore once the key's allowed number of uses is up. A FlashKey can only be used for as many radio upgrades (and of the same type) as were purchased. It works with the RSS, and communicates with the SmartRIB and dongle to control the usage of the Flash file.

The last part of the system is the Flash upgrade software. The FlashKey is a 'dongle' which carries a program of its own in it. The physical requirements are a SmartRIB box, PC to SRIB cable (not always the same as the PC to RIB cable, you need a programming cable which has all the necessary pins connected properly and many aftermarket cables do not but the genuine Motorola article does), and a FlashKey, which is placed between the SRIB and the programming cable. New options can be 'flash' loaded into a FlashPort radio. well, here are the basics on how it's supposed to work Motorola Flash Programming Primer Motorola Flash Programming Primer
