What is CPSProgrammer?
DMR (Digital Mobile Radio) is a digital voice (DV) modulation scheme,
which becomes more and more popular in amateur radio (ham radio). To be
able to use the radio transceivers, all frequencies (channels) used must be
entered as a „memory channel“ into the so called codeplug (CP). There is
a huge number of local radio repeaters, as well as analogue FM repeaters
and simplex frequencies, which all have to be entered into the CP by typing it manually into a programming software (CPS). Only
in Germany we currently have about 300 DMR repeater, which expand to
about 700 channels (2 timeslots + many mixed mode FM) only for
DMR.
. Principle of the CPSProgrammer: CPSProgrammer is designed to interact with the existing vendor-provided CPS software. The vendor's CPS software must be running for CPSProgrammer to update the codeplug that is open in vendor's CPS software CPSProgrammer will make that work much more simple. All DV channels can be downloaded from the DMR database and than can easily be managed and extended by analogue channels, using Excel. A CSV file, to be generated from the Excel table, then will be used by the CPSProgrammer to program the channel information into the CPS. CPSProgrammer directly accesses the CPS windows controls to transfer the programming information from the CSV-file into the codeplug. The automatic transfer of a few hundred channels into the Radio Programming Software takes a few minutes only. CPSProgrammer requires a well prepared codeplug and a well prepared database (CSV), to be able to minimize your typing work on the codeplug. Additional information can be found at this Yahoo group (founded in April 2016): https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/DMR-CPS-programming/info Features and Limitations

CPSProgrammer is an automatic programming (programming robot) of the channel information of a CPS.
CPSProgrammer reads all input-information from a CSV file. CPSProgrammer is designed to interact with the existing vendor-provided CPS software. CPSProgrammer does not read or write codeplug-files (.rdt, .rcd, .rcdx). The vendor's CPS software must be running for CPSProgrammer to update the codeplug that is open in vendor's CPS software (see picture above: "Principle of the CPSProgrammer"). Currently supported CPS software.

A tool providing help to create a channellist with proper coding for the
CPSProgrammer is provided online:
Just go to
http://www.spacesupport.de/repeater-liste.php and select "create
channel list". The DMR repeater list will directly be taken from the DMR
database, which grants an up-to-date channel list.

To automatically generate and fill scanlists, a CSV with a specific format is required. The file contains one line for each scanlist, starting with the name of the scanlist and followed by the channel names.

To generate scanlists, you may comfortably use DO1JG's scanlist & zonelist CSV-generator
For a Roaminglist the same structure is valid, as for a Scanlist. The keyword in the CSV, line 1 is "RoamList". Please note, that roaming is not supported by all devices.
To automatically generate and fill Zones, a CSV with a specific format is required. The file contains one line for each zone, starting with the name of the Zone and followed by the channel names.

CPSProgrammer can read the controls of the CPS and therefore export the channels of an opened codeplug into a CSV file. This can be used as backup, or as a base for codeplug development, to start from. This may also be used to copy channels between different DMR transceivers, which codeplugs are not interchangeable. Before you start "export channels", you have to open any channel with your CPS!
The picture above shows the export of channels from a CPS. The exported
channels are written into a edit field in CSV notation first, where you
can edit the data before storage. You may enter text, delete text or copy
(ctrl+c) and paste (ctrl+v) text in the edit field. The red out channels
are re-compiled into the CPSProgrammer format, where up to 3 channels
(TS1, TS2, mixed-mode-FM) can be packed into one line, if applicable.
While exporting the channels, CPSProgrammer collects information about the
used ScanLists, RXGroups and TXContacts in the codeplug being exported.
This information is shown in the boxes under "Code Plug information" and
can be saved in a text file by clicking the "Save Code Plug Information"
button.
You may also define a range in your codeplug within the
selected channels will be exported (a channel number can be found next to
the navigation buttons in your CPS). With the default setting 1 ... 1024
ALL channels of a codeplug will be exported.
Exporting zones is shown in the picture below. The operation of exporting zones, scanlists and RXGroups as well, is quite similar to exporting channels, described above. Once the zones, scanlists or RXGroups are written into the edit-field, you can edit the CSV or save the data in a file by clicking "Save as".
CPSProgrammer provides list generators for DMR and FM
channels, to automatically
generate channel-CSVs with consecutive frequencies, such as consecutive simplex- or
repeater-channels. The generated channels are written into a edit field in
CSV notation first, where you can edit the data before storage. You may
enter text, delete text or copy (ctrl+c) and paste (ctrl+v) text in the
edit field.
Below is an example, how to generate the European
FM repeater channels with its former naming pattern R70, R70x ... R101x (x
equals 12,5 kHz offset). The naming pattern for repeater channels now is
different, but this example shows how powerful the channel list generator
can be used.
The callsign ("channel name") to be displayed is generated automatically and made by a concatenation of up to 6 input fields. The following functions are available for each of the 6 fields:
The picture above shows the DMR CSV List-Generator, which allows to generate a channel list with consecutive frequencies. The sample shown here, will generate consecutive channels according to the DMR-Find scheme.
The picture above shows the window of "Convert
FM-Repeater List" with a converted repeater list. This allows you to
convert a CSV file, downloaded from
http://relaislisten.darc.de/ into a format required from
CPSProgrammer.
Via this Interface you have access to one of the biggest
databases on amateur radio voice repeaters. Currently they have more than
8000 entries from more than 60 countries in their database.
To build
the channel-name for the newly generated CSV, two additional functions are
provided:
Please carefully check the input file for inconsistency and doubled entries. Sometimes information (e.g. repeater input frequency) is missing.
To edit a bulk of channels in one time, CPSProgrammer does provide
bulk edit functions. Bulk Delete Channels (picture below) allows you to
delete channels in your codeplug.
You can select if you want to delete
all channels or only FM or DMR channels. You may also skip mixed mode
channels (delimiter, e.g. %FM, is defined in the ini-file). You may also
define a range in your codeplug within the selected channels will be
deleted (a channel number can be found next to the navigation buttons on
the left side). With the default setting 1 ... 1024 ALL channels in a
codeplug will be deleted.
CPSProgrammer first jumps to last channel in
the codeplug and starts searching reverse. If the number of the current
channel is lower or equal then "delete to ch'" the current channel will be
deleted, provided it fits to the selection (all, DMR, FM). If the channel
number, given in "delete from ch" is reached, bulk delete stops.
Bulk Delete: The green progress bar shows the current progress.
This new function allows you to convert CPSProgrammer CSVs into
CSV-formats accepted from third party Customer Programming Software, for
importing data.
Following sources may be used as input for conversion:
