PRODUCT PROGRAMMING
Install the MPS programming software if you have not done so already. The unit is programmed through the radio
using the Motorola RIB box and cable or RIBless cable and Midian’s MPS programming software.
Start the MPS software. From the product selection screen on the MPS software, locate and select the SVR-1-
MPP1/MPM1 and click OK.
Configure the programming software by selecting File->Preferences and make certain there is a check mark next
to ‘Rib Box Enable’ by clicking on it. Also select the appropriate COM port.
Set the parameters of the software to fit the application. If any clarifications on a feature are required, move the
mouse cursor over the feature name until the question mark appears and right click, an on-line help for that
feature will be shown. The MPS always defaults to “Conventional MDC Portable” as the radio type. On the basic
settings tab it is necessary to select the proper radio type.
After entering the parameters, save the file by going to File - Save As. Enter the file name in the File Name block
and click Save. Saving the file will allow for quick and easy reprogramming of units. Turn power on to the radio
and then the RIB. Click ProgramUnit! in the MPS software. You will hear 1-3 beeps from the radio if programmed
successfully.
To read the parameters from the unit, Click on ReadUnit!.
The radio and RIB should be powered down for 3 seconds after reading or programming.
