Recommended Procedure Over Wi-Fi |
(Learning and Programming CPS Tools) |
Recommended Procedure Over Wi-Fi includes the general cases of the codeplug and radio firmware update using the Radio Management System over Wi-Fi. This recommendation is a guideline but many variations of this procedure are valid.
|
Motorola recommends that the Wi-Fi network used for radio provisioning be configured as a secure network. WPA is more secure than WEP, but both are supported. Enterprise level security is not yet supported. |
|
The radio can be provisioned with up to 20 distinct Wi-Fi access points. Additionally, network priorities are programmable such that if the radio is within range of multiple pre-configured networks, it will connect to the network with the highest priority (1 = highest priority). If the radio is within the range of multiple networks of the same priority, it will connects to the network with the highest signal strength. |
|
When the radio connects to the Wi-Fi network,the radio will notify the Device Programmer (DP). If the DP has any scheduled jobs for that radio, the job will initiate in the background. |
|
After the radio receives the update, the user will be alerted by a tone. Additionally, if the radio has a front display, the options “Accept” or “Delay” will be shown. |
|
For codeplug only updates, the codeplug will be updated after the user turn on the radio. |
|
For firmware updates, if the radio has a front display, the options “Accept” or “Delay” will be shown. Radios with a top display will show “Update?” and the user needs to press the long key press of the top side button of the radio to accept the update. |

The radio will be out of service for several minutes during the firmware updates. |
