Warning:
----------------  

1) If your PC is running the first release of Microsoft Windows 95
   and Internet Explorer has not been installed, you may experience
   problems in installing and running the CPS due to certain
   components of the operating system being out of date.

   To eliminate this problem two Microsoft patches have been included
   on the CPS CD. If you experience any problems under Windows 95,
   please go to the CD and run:
     /Win95Patches/40comupd.exe
     /Win95Patches/dcom95.exe
   and then re-install the CPS. 
 
2) On some PCs, the CPS may abnormally terminate if Print Preview
   is attempted on the Print Custom screen. This problem only occurs
   when Print All is selected. This problem has been observed on 
   Compaq Windows 98 computers with the following programs running:
      * Easy Access Internet Program (cpqEasyAcc.exe)
      * Compaq Internet Watchdog Program (watchdog.exe)
   If this CPS function is to be used, it is recommended that these 
   programs be removed from the PC startup.  

3) On some printers, the columns in some printed tables might be
   slightly wider than they should be, causing the table to spread 
   horizontally onto a second page.

4) On certain HP Laserjet printers the Print Summary option will only print
   one page. If you experience this problem, it is recommended that you first
   save the information to a file and then use any Editor (Word, Wordpad, etc..)
   to open the file and print the summary information.

5) When using Windows ME and Windows XP, sometimes an extra set of scroll bars get 
   displayed when viewing certain screens.  

6) When using Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8 OS, please ensure the DPI setting is default 100% 
   or enable the checkbox of "Use Windows XP style DPI scaling" in Custom DPI Setting window 
   to avoid CPS GUI incorrect layout problem.

7) When using Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8 OS, you may experience a "CPS failed to launch help files" problem.
   The problem is due to Windows help program will not be shipping as a feature of Windows Vista, Windows 7 or Windows 8,
   so please download WinHlp32.exe from Microsoft Download Center to solve the problem.

8) When using Windows 8 OS, you need install .NET Framework 3.5 automatically on line as following steps: 
   'Control Panel' -> 'Programs' -> 'Programs and Features' -> 'Turn Windows features on or off' ->
   enable the checkbox '.NET Framework 3.5 (includes .NET 2.0 and 3.0)' and its 2 sub checkboxes. 
   This action can be implemented before or after CPS installing. Then Launch CPS, CPS can work normally.


Note: while programming radio,the most possible reasons (but not all) to see the secondary 
      pop up warning message are:

      (1) The target radio model number mismatch CPS archive file.
      (2) The target radio region ID is not supported by the CPS.
      (3) The target radio codeplug mismatch with the CPS.
      (4) CPS password verification failed when write radio.	
      (5) CPS and radio communication error.





Programming Hints:
------------------

1) It should be noted that a new/added conventional personality 
   must be assigned to a zone/channel position. To add a zone to 
   a radio click the "+" in a Personality Assignment to Zone 
   Window. To add a conventional personality to the radio, click 
   the "+" on a Conventional Personality Window. To add an 
   additional conventional personality to a zone go to the 
   Personality Assignment to Zone:Channel window for the 
   desired zone.  Click the right mouse key within the channel 
   table to add a conventional personality entry. Please read 
   the CPS help for additional information. 

2) Speed Dial buttons should not be programmed to the P1, P2, and
   P3 buttons on radios, which overlay these buttons with the menu 
   navigation keys. The speed dial buttons will not operate 
   in this configuration because the buttons function as the menu
   navigation keys when phone mode is entered. 

3) When adding a new conventional personality, verify that the
   bandwidth selected on the Conventional Personality  Basic screen is 
   correct.  Incorrect selections will lead to poor radio 
   performance.
