  Older manuals showed an address in Ventura, CA. That address is no longer valid.


Scroll down for some obsolete CSI manuals that were donated by various sources. If anyone has any additional relevant manuals (or software) please drop a note to the page maintainer listed at the top of this page. It seems they mostly sell mobile and portable radios these days.

CSI also sells their own portable and mobile digital radios that are compatible with DMR / MotoTRBO systems.
These units are reasonably priced and chock-full of features that you'd expect from the major brands.

The CD2-CAR was a DTMF ANI Decoder - it decoded only DTMF strings and held the display until the next string was received.
The CD2-CAR was the CD-2 but with a jumper inside... jumper out=CD2, jumper in=CD2-CAR.
The CD-2P was an MS-DOS program that displayed the DTMF strings on a computer screen and logged them. Anybody have a copy?
