Hardware Recommendations

· The application takes approximately 16 MB of free disk space on your PC. However, you may want more space to allow you to save archive files of your radios. Each archive file varies in size depending on the features of the radio that are enabled. A good rule of thumb is 75 KB per archive file.

· For processor speed and RAM, nothing is required beyond the recommendations given by Microsoft for the release of the operating system that you are using.

· The graphical user interface is best displayed using 1024*768 and 65536 color display or better (use small font).

· A CD-ROM drive.

· A serial port or USB to serial port adapter. The BAFO(R) BF-810 USB to serial port adapter has been tested successfully with the CPS application.

4. Installation, Removal

Installation

You need to have Administrator rights on the target PC in order to install the software if you are running Microsoft Windows NT 4.0, Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional, or Microsoft Windows XP Home/Professional Edition.

Proceed as follows:

• Insert the CD-ROM containing the installation into the CD-ROM drive.
• If the installation application doesn't start within 30 seconds, the auto-run feature for CD-ROMs for you operating system is likely disabled. Browse to your CD-ROM and run the autorun.exe program. For example, if the E:\ drive is the CD-ROM, run E:\autorun.exe.

Removal

5. Important Notes

The following issues are known problems with the latest release of the Motorola PR860 CPS.

• If the display setting's font size is set to "Custom setting" instead of "Small Fonts" or "Large Fonts" the Toolbar and Conventional Personalities folder may not display properly.
• The installation doesn't set the default path to save archive files and therefore the user will need to migrate to the directory of their choosing the first time they save a file.
