Configuration Tutorial
The following tutorial shows you how to make some basic changes to the
standard configuration that turn the TB8100 into a basic repeater. You modify
the signal path, change from carrier gating to noise gating, optionally configure
subaudible signalling, and set the receive and transmit frequencies. The aim is
to get you started and to introduce you to some of the many configuration
settings that are covered in the online Help and the manual.
Step 1: Install the Service Kit and Calibration Kit on your PC
1. Insert the CD-ROM in your CD-ROM drive.
2. If the CD does not autoplay, select Run from the Start menu and use the
Browse button to select Setup.exe from the d: drive, where d is the
CD-ROM drive,
3. Follow the on-screen instructions.
You are given the opportunity to install the Alarm Center as well. If your
system is designed for an Alarm Center, do this separately on a dedicated PC.
Note: If the base station does not have the required switching range,
use the Calibration Kit to adjust it. This should be done before you
configure the base station. See the Operation Manual and the
Calibration Kit online Help for instructions.
Step 2: Connect and Log On
1. Using the cable supplied, connect a serial port on your PC to the serial port
on the subrack front panel.
2. Select Start > Programs > Tait Programming Applications > TB8100
Service Kit.
3. On the toolbar, click Connect.
The Connecting dialog box appears.
4. In the Connect to box, select COM1 Connection or COM2 Connection,
depending on the serial port you connected the cable to.
