Error #1687 - Mototrbo CPS 12.1 and Windows 10

I know this is a common topic, but I have not been able to get anything to work in my weeks of searching, and I could really use some help. I am not a network or computer wizard.

I have a new to me Windows 10 Laptop with CPS 12.1 installed. CPS installed fine, drivers appeared to install fine, laptop recognizes my radios when I plug them in. I am using a known good OEM programming cable.

I get Error #1687 every time I try to read any portables or mobiles. I can see my XPR7550 under my devices as "MotoTRBO Radio", and I can see it under the device manager under Network Devices, and it says it is working properly.

No matter what I do, the radios will not read. Understand I am not trying to be spoon-fed, but I have exhausted all of my knowledge and nothing from the extensive searching I have done seems to work.

Summary of Setups:
Moto CPS - Requires changes to a number of fields for each GPS enabled channel.
BrandMeister - Need to register in SelfCare and select, call sign, radio, icon, text message.
OpenSPOT - Need to select server 3102 or try other servers if no icon appears.
Even with all the correct settings it can take about 5 minutes for the GPS data to appear on APRS.FI.

Motorola XPR 5550 Desktop Microphone Button Left and Right

My question is: The RMN5050 microphone I'm using for the radio has two buttons on it. The right-side "lightning bolt" button is the PTT button to transmit, but I can't figure out what the left-side "speaker icon" button does. When I try to push it, nothing appears to happen.

Does anybody know what the purpose of the left-side "speaker icon" button is?

See below for an image of the Motorola RMN5050 microphone I'm using:

RMN5068A Desk microphone HMN3000 Internal Switch

I have taken the bottom cover off to get at the dip switches without having a schematic.

The main problem with the new RMN5068A Desk microphone that replaced the HMN3000 is that it works with the Motorola mobiles but doesn't work with dispatch solutions such as the MC series desksets and the Commandstar lite console all of which are manufactured by CML. What we discovered is the mic DC voltage supplied by the mobiles is around 5 to 7 volts. The mic dc that the CML products supplies is almost 12 volts. The HMN3000 tolerated the higher voltage without affecting the mike audio. The new RMN5068A can't tolerate that higher voltage and causes the mic amplifier circuit to go into distortion.

What is the function of each dip switch in the mic?
How do you separate the front and rear covers on the mic?

DMR MOTOTRBO radio Error 1687

If you've ever read a MOTOTRBO radio, you might have come across this error message. It basically means that the radio did not respond. There are a number of causes for this and many of them can be solved with a few simple checks.

Check the connections. Is the programming cable really plugged into the PC and connected to the radio. Sometimes dirt and other interesting things can get onto the accessory connector terminals - especially portables. An old toothbrush with a little contact cleaner or methanol will make sure those contact are clean.
