Power-Up Procedure
To power up the FLEX-3000
1. Connect the FLEX-3000 to the computer and the power supply. Check the connections to
ensure good contact.
2. Boot up the computer and make sure PowerSDR is ready to be launched (no hour glass
cursor).
3. Turn on the power supply for the radio and press the FLEX-3000 power switch to latch it in the
on position. After a few seconds you will hear the internal power relay click and see the blue
LED illuminate. The FLEX-3000 will be recognized by Windows and its driver will be available for
PowerSDR to use.
4. After waiting at least 30 seconds, start up PowerSDR. It will automatically recognize the FLEX-
3000 driver. You are now ready to operate.
Power-Down Procedure
The power-down sequence is almost the reverse of the power-up procedure.
1. Stop PowerSDR by clicking on the Start/Stop button.
2. Close PowerSDR by clicking on the “X” in the upper right hand corner of the Front Console.
3. Press the FLEX-3000 blue illuminated Power switch to unlatch it and turn off the transceiver.
CAUTION: Make sure PowerSDR is shut-down before turning off the radio. Failing
to do so may result in instability of your computer system, leading to
a Blue Screen.
