Baofeng DM32 CPS v.1.60 is out: Chinese fix instructions
Baofeng just released v.1.60 CPS DMR programming software for the DM32 (6-8-2026). No changelog was included, so it's not apparent what bugs are fixed (or not) vs. CPS v.1.45 (the prior released version). The first time CPS v.1.60 is launched, the default language is CHINESE. A quick edit to the CPS.INI is needed to set the default language to ENGLISH. Here's the quick fix:
Navigate to the installation directory. On my Windows 11 PC, the default location is C:\DMR CPS\CPS DMR Radio V1.60. Locate the CPS.INI file, right-click on it and select OPEN with NOTEPAD.
Near the [function] section at the beginning of the file is an entry that says "lang=cn". That is for CHINESE. Change the "cn" to "en"
so the line reads lang=en. Save the file back, exit NOTEPAD and relaunch CPS v.1.60. Eveything should now display in English!
Thanks to KK4SHO (Andrew) who shared this tip yesterday when we were talking about Baofeng DM32 codeplugs.
BTW: when you are running the CPS v.1.60 and select HELP then ABOUT, it reports itself as v.1.59. But, it's labeled as v.1.60. Go figure.
