QuickPRS

Generate and edit Harris XG-100P personality (.PRS) files without Harris RPM software.

WARNING: USE AT YOUR OWN RISK. This software modifies radio personality files. Incorrectly configured personality files may brick your radio or cause it to malfunction. The authors are not responsible for any damage to radios, equipment, or property. Always validate files before loading onto a radio. Keep backups of working personalities. This tool is not affiliated with or endorsed by L3Harris Technologies.

STATUS: In Development. This tool is under active development. While the binary format has been extensively reverse-engineered and tested against known-good RPM files, it has NOT been exhaustively tested on all XG-100P hardware revisions and firmware versions. Test on non-critical equipment first.

IMPORTANT: This tool does NOT load mission plans onto radios. QuickPRS generates and edits .PRS personality files. To actually load a personality onto an XG-100P radio, you still need Harris RPM software (for now). QuickPRS replaces the personality creation and editing workflow, not the radio flashing process.

Features

• 100% binary format decoded (49 section types, 27 option sections, 514+ fields)
• Create PRS files from scratch or INI config files
• Import from RadioReference (SOAP API or paste from website)
• Import from scanner formats (CHIRP, Uniden Sentinel, SDRTrunk)
• 45+ CLI commands for scripting and batch processing
• Full GUI with tree view, inline editing, drag-and-drop, RadioReference import
• Built-in channel templates (MURS, GMRS, FRS, Marine, NOAA, Interop, Public Safety)
• Built-in P25 system database (30 major US systems)
• JSON export/import for human-editable radio configs
• Export to CHIRP CSV, Uniden CSV, SDRTrunk, DSD+, Markdown, INI
• Merge, clone, and compare PRS files
• Radio option editing (GPS, display, audio, bluetooth, buttons, etc.)
• P25 encryption key management and NAC editing
• Fleet batch processing (same config to multiple radios with unique unit IDs)
• Fleet consistency checking across multiple radios
• Zone planning, capacity estimation, and statistics
• Configuration health check with best practice suggestions
• Department-specific profiles (fire, law enforcement, EMS, search & rescue)
• Frequency spectrum map visualization
• Configuration snapshots for change tracking
• File watcher with auto-validation
• Comprehensive validation against XG-100P hardware limits
• File repair and data salvage for damaged PRS files
• Lossless binary roundtrip (parse and rewrite produces byte-identical output)
• 4,000+ automated tests

Quick Start

Build a radio config from an INI file:

quickprs build patrol.ini -o radio.PRS
quickprs set-option radio.PRS gps.gpsMode ON
quickprs validate radio.PRS

Or use individual commands:

quickprs create radio.PRS --name "PATROL"
quickprs inject radio.PRS p25 --name PSERN --sysid 892 --freqs-csv freqs.csv --tgs-csv tgs.csv
quickprs inject radio.PRS conv --template murs
quickprs inject radio.PRS conv --template noaa
quickprs inject radio.PRS conv --template interop
quickprs validate radio.PRS

Launch the GUI:

python -m quickprs

Installation

pip install -r requirements.txt
python -m quickprs          # Launch GUI
python -m quickprs --help   # CLI help

Or use the standalone EXE from Releases (no Python required).

Optional dependencies:

• sv-ttk — Modern theme for the GUI
• darkdetect — Auto dark mode detection
• windnd — Drag-and-drop file support (Windows)
• zeep — RadioReference SOAP API access (requires premium subscription)
