Radio
This page allows you to set the radio used, which may be intemal or external,
Internal Radio
‘+ Type: Read-only field indicating the type of the internal radio.
‘+ Power State: Use this field to turn the internal radio on or off.
Internal Radio Settings:
‘+ Mode: When this option is set to Automatic, the radio will be powered on automatically when you power on the
receiver. If it’s set to Manual, the radio will be powered on or off only by setting the previous field accordingly.
‘+ Channel: Choose the carrier frequency to use from the list of available frequencies.
‘+ Channel Spacing: A read-only fielé showing the channeling (12.5 kHz) for the type of radio used.
‘+ Radio Mode: Choose the set of parameters defining the operating mode you want the internal radio to work in (up
to 19 different ones). Each set of parameters includes such data as protocol and airlink speed used as well as
scrambling and FEC settings.
‘+ Sensitivity: Select the desired reception sensitivity (Low, Medium, High).
‘+ Transmit Powe
Choose the radiated power (500 mW or 2 W) for when the radio is used as a transmitter.
‘+ Repeater Made: If you enable this function in the receiver, and you are using a Trimble protocol (TRIMTALK) as
radio mode, you must indicate which specific function the receiver has to fulfill (complete the Repeater Type field):
"ase with 1 Repeater”, “Base with 2 Repeaters”, "Repeater One” or “Repeater Two".
If you are using another protocol (EOT, FST, etc.), enter the delay, in milliseconds, you want to introduce
between the moment of reception and the moment of retransmission,
When you are done, don’t forget to click on the Configure button to save all your new settings.
Receive-Only Channel Management:
‘+ Frequency Range: A read-only parameter providing the reception frequency range for the type of radio model used
(e.g. 403-473 MHz)
‘+ Add Frequency: Check this box if you wish to add a reception frequency. Then enter the value of this frequency.
Click on the Configure button located within this pane to save the new frequency.
* Delete Frequency: Check this box to delete a reception frequency you created previously. You can then select this
frequency from the drop-down list. Then click on the Configure button located within this pane to delete the
frequency.
External Ra
This tab allows you to choose the port and radio model used, download and modify the currently used radio
settings. If the external radio used is an XDL (vers.2.04 or higher) or an ADL (vers. 5.02 or higher), you need to
define the same parameters as if it were an internal radio (see previously). For any other type of radio, you need to
define the following:
‘+ Port and Baud Rate: Serial port (A, B or F) to which the external radio is connected and baud rate used.
‘Type: Model of radio used: "PDL HPB/LPB", "ADL Vantage/?ro/35", "XDL Rover 2” or none.
Load Radio Settings button: Click on this button to read the current radio settings. This will work only if the radio is
connected to the receiver as specified above and the radio has been powered up.
Radio settings are first as reported after clicking on the Load Radio Settings button. Then you can change these
settings and upload them to the radio using the Configure button,
* Channel: Select the desired channel/frequency.
‘+ Channel Spacing: Read-only field.
* Protocol: Select the protocol that suits the selected radio model.
‘+ Airlink Speed (between 4800 and 19200 Bd) and Modulation
‘+ Sensitivity: Select the desired reception sensitivity (Low, Medium, High).
‘+ Transmit Power: When applicable, choose the power you want the radio to radiate,

‘+ Forward Error Correction (FEC) and Scrambler: Functions specific to Pacific Crest radio for safer radio transmission.
Enable or disable these functions. See manufacturer documentation for more information.
‘+ Repeater Mode: Enable this function if you want the receiver to forward the corrections it receives to the radio,
Remember most settings (i.e. channel, protocol, airlink speed, modulation, FEC, scrambler) must be consistent to
allow two radios to work together.
When you are done, don’t forget to click on the Configure button to save all your new settings.
Status Pane
This pane provides a summary of the current radio settings in one or two tables.
