Why this procedure was chosen
MODAS software was developed by 3tc Ltd. and as such they held the source code and unique interfaces for the system. 3tc were however taken over by Motorola Solutions on 04/11/2024. Motorola Solutions Ltd. now own the intellectual property rights and hold the source code for the MODAS system and are the only supplier that can provide support, services and training on this unique configuration.
