MCS 2000 Programming

Post by Exceler8r »

Hi all,

Hoping you can all provide me with your knowledge and experience with the requirements to program a MCS2000 (Remote Head) unit.

Basically I need to know:
-What tools are required?
-What PC and Software requirements are there?
-How simple/difficult is it to program?

Your assistance would be greatly appreciated.

A rib box on ebay for about $20

Thanks MTRBO.

Can you advise me if this CPS is freeware? If so, where can I obtain a copy?

What is the programming cable made of/from, are they easily obtainable?

Cheers.
