CE-27 Programming Software Instruction
With the CE27 Programming Software, you can quickly
and easily program the Vertex Standard VXR-7000
repeater's channels and configuration from your personal
computer. In the event of an accidental memory failure,
repeater memory and configuration data may be re-loaded
in a matter of minutes.
The CE27 Programming Software diskette contains the
following files:
• CE27.EXE
• CE27.HLP
Before connecting the VXR-7000 for programming, turn
off both the computer and the VXR-7000. Now connect
the VPL-1 Connection Cable to the computer's serial port
and the VXR-7000.
Then it will be safe to restart the computer; turning off the
equipment during interconnection avoids the potential for
damage to the electronics caused by voltage spikes.
Insert the distribution diskette into your 3½" drive (after
booting DOS), and make a copy of the diskette; use the
distribution diskette for archive purposes, and use the disk
copy for programming.

Place the CE27 (copy) diskette into your 3½" drive (usu-
ally "Drive A"), and log onto this drive by typing "A:
[E ]", then load the contents of the CE27 diskette into

troductory screen will appear, and you may press any key
to enter the main screen.
Choose the "Help" contents option (F1) from the program's
Menu for assistance with channel programming or setting
of parameters.
Do not run the CE27 programming software di-
rectly from the original distribution diskette.
Copy the programming software to your
computer's hard disk, then run the software from
the hard disk only. Keep the original distribu-
tion diskette in a safe place in case you need to
make another copy of it at a later date.
Before creating the programming data for your
VXR-7000 via the CE27 programming software,
upload the current factory hardware environ-
ment data from the VXR-7000, using the [F5]
(ReadRom) command. Use this data profile to
create the programming data for this repeater.
