Motorola saber programming software6/11/2023 ![]() And even with a DOS computer the software may be quirky and you may have to try a few times to make it work. May or may not work with the 16550 (buffered) serial port. ![]() Unless someone can confirm that it does work? Thanks!I have tried DosBox with the sibling radios MX1000/2000/3000 and it won't work, you need a true DOS computer with a real 8250 or 16450 serial port to be able to program them. But I have not tried programming with it. I do have DOS Box, and I know that the software opens. ![]() The version 8 of System has some funky operating requirements so I avoid it. BTW whether it's Saber or System Saber some things above apply. I still use a lot of the RSS software packages for Saber, Spectra and Clean Cab Spectra.Īlways use my 486-25SX and have never had any issues. For the most part installing is just a matter of selecting the install prompt. Find an old 386 and you won't have any problems, as far as the program being zipped you may have to unzip it on a newer machine and then transfer it to possibly 2ea 720k floppies depending on the version. If you try and program with anything faster than a 486-25 mhz SX and not DX you chance corrupting the code-plug, but not bricking the radio (using the DX model with the math coprocessor sometimes causes a divide by zero error). ![]() The main problems with the old Saber and other DOS RSS programs is the hard coding in the software for serial port, that plus the speed.
