4.1 GENERAL
4.1.1 PROGRAMMING SETUP
The following items are required to program this
transceiver. The part numbers of the programming
cable and software are shown in Table 1-1. A printer is
also recommended for making a hard copy record of
the information programmed into the transceiver. The
programming setup is shown above.
•
IBM® PC AT or PS/2 compatible computer with
one available serial port
•
MS-DOS® version 5.02 or higher or equivalent
•
E.F. Johnson programming cable (includes required
level converter circuit) and adapter cable
•
E.F. Johnson programming software
4.1.2 PROGRAMMING CABLES
Programming Cable, Part No. 585-7500-031, and
Adapter Cable, Part No. 585-7600-031, are required to
connect the computer to the transceiver. The program-
ming cable has a female DB9 connector which plugs
into the serial port of the computer. In this connector is
a level converter circuit which converts the RS-232
levels of the computer to the logic levels required by
the transceiver. The other end of the cable plugs into
the adapter cable which adapts the miniature phone
plug to the modular-style microphone connector on the
transceiver. Turn transceiver power on after these
cables are connected.
4.1.3 PROGRAMMING SOFTWARE
The programming software is distributed on a
3-1/2” 1.44 M diskette. This diskette includes the main
executable program RP7600.EXE and several ancil-
lary files it requires to run. These files total approxi-
mately 430k in size. Also included on this disk is the
ADJUST program used to tune the transceiver. This
program and other files it requires to run total about
180k in size and are located in a separate subdirectory
