title | Why is the PRC version in programmer different from radio PRC? |
---|
|
PRC 1.0.3 is a database version. If the PRC version between the programmer and radio is not similar, it means that some features you see in programmer aren’t supported in the radio. |

title | Why is the programmer not detecting my radio? |
---|
|
There could be several reasons: the USB Driver is not installed. To find out if driver is installed or not, go to Device Manager the ‘Device Manager’ and look for Silicon Labs CP210x USB to UART Bridge (COMxx). If it is not shown when radio is connected, then driver must be installed first. The Programmer is out of date. The USB cable is not a data cable. There is a chance that the USB cable is only for charging and not exchanging data.

title | Programmer is not checking and downloading software updates |
---|
|
There could be several reasons. Ensure your PC’s firewall and antivirus is not blocking the downloads. Please allow programmer through firewall. Software update updates can be abrupted interrupted by a weak/slow internet connection. Please ensure your internet connection is stable. Try another network connection such as mobile hotspot if possible.
If the issue persists, all latest updates can be manually downloaded from Entel Dealer Portal |

title | Programmer says "Visit the update site your downloaded firmware is old". What does it mean? |
---|
|
It means the FW version of the radio is higher than the FW version in the programmer. You can run “Check for Updates” in the programmer to find any updates. There is also a possibility that the radio has a Beta (Unreleased) version, in that case, please ignore the message and program as normal. A future firmware update will sort correct this in time. |
