Quick-Start Instructions
The 5009 Dual Frequency Synthesizer module has been pre-programmed to 2440MHz for the
Source1 and 2480MHz for source2. Just apply 6Vdc @ ~600mA using the supplied power cable
(red +, black -). Plug it in now! Within 2 seconds, the two blue LED lock lights should be
illuminated (see note at end).
In order to program your desired frequencies or change any other settings you will need to
download the Configuration Manager graphical user interface (GUI) program at:
http://valontechnology.com/5009users/5009.htm. (Please note: The 5009 does not use the
same Configuration Manager as the 5007/5008 synthesizers).
Note: If you don't want to use the GUI and would prefer to use a terminal program, go to
section 4.
1. From the website link, click the V5009CM.exe and save the program to your desktop or any
other folder.
2. Connect the micro-USB cable to your PC and the synthesizer module. Your computer should
automatically start to detect the new USB device. If it does not you may need to install the
FTDI driver. http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP.htm.
3. Launch the V5009CM GUI program by double-clicking the icon. At the start of the launch
process a Windows dialog box will appear that verifies that a Valon 5009
synthesizer is connected. The serial number and virtual com port will be
displayed. More than one 5009 synthesizer may be connected. This dialog
box allows the selection of the desired synthesizer. To control another
synthesizer, start another instance of the configuration manager.
