UDRPANEL SOFTWARE Startup Window The UDR series receivers are supplied with a PC software control program called UDRpanel. With UDRpanel is it pos- sible to do things with the receiver that cannot be accom- plished from the front panel. These special capabilities include: •...
Wireless Diversity Receiver Main Window The Pilot indicator is green when a pilot tone is present, red when no pilot tone is present, and yellow when the pilot tone detection feature of the receiver has been bypassed. RF A and RF B give a relative indication of RF signal strength at the two antennas.
File Menu Options Window The file menu lets you create, save and load configurations, as well as exit the program. Edit Menu The Options window lets you customize UDRpanel for your individual use. The COM Port connected to your LecNet serial cable is specified here.

Receiver Menu The receiver menu lets you change the pilot bypass status or lock status of a receiver. If Pilot Bypass is enabled, the receiver audio is never muted, even when a valid pilot tone is not present. There are three choices for Lock Status: not locked, locked, and hard locked.
This may alleviate the dropout problem the rear panel of the UDR200C receiver, and the other one on that antenna. If dropouts are still a problem, try moving the mounted remotely.
• If noise is still present when the transmitter is turned off, try lowering the audio output level on the UDR200C rear panel and see if the noise lowers correspondingly. If the noise remains, the problem is not in the receiver.
