FPP Field Personality Programmer or CPS the Configuration Programmer

This is a how to install the Configuration Programming Software for the P25 enabled Simoco 9000 series radios on a Windows 10 platform.

Notes:
  1. I have not tried to get the 538 version working as the 536 works well.
  2. the patch files obviate the need for entering a password.
  3. I cannot see any 538 patch files in this set. Id there a password instead?
  4. The Simoco 9030+ behaves like two different radios. The FPP (PMR or analogue) profile is not seen by the IMBE (APCO 25) application.
  5. The Mode function on the radios changes between the PMR and P25 modes.
  6. In P25 mode you do not see the PMR channels and the option setting are unique to each mode which can be confusing.
  7. The P25 mode allows PMR analogue channels

FPP - Version 5.36

FPP-V536-About.webp

To install version 5.36:
  1. Download IMBE/P25FPPv536_Install.exe
  2. Run the media file IMBE/P25FPPv536_Install.exe to install the P25 FPP SRM9000 and SRP9100 configuration Programmer.
  3. Copy all the files in the IMBE/patch2v536 folder over the folder "Program Files (x86)/Simoco/SRM + SRP FPP/P25 FPP".
    The application now runs without asking for Licence Keys and writes to the radios.
  4. Run the instaled software and make sure the initial screen does *not* ask for licence keys.
  5. Go to the "Help" menu tab and select "About" from the drop down menu. It should read:
