CE27 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 per-
sonal computer. Channel data programming format is
identical for VHF and UHF repeaters. In the event of an
accidental memory failure, repeater memory and con-
figuration data may be re-loaded in a matter of min-
utes.
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 FIF-10A (or FIF-12) + CT-104A USB Programming
Interface to the computer's USB port and the VXR-7000's
MIC jack.
Then it will be safe to restart the computer; turning off
the equipment during interconnection avoids the po-
tential for damage to the electronics caused by voltage
spikes.
Insert the distribution diskette into your 3½" drive (af-
ter booting DOS), and make a copy of the diskette; use
the distribution diskette for archive purposes, and use
the disk copy for programming.

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 program-
ming 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 dis-
tribution 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.
