FlexRadio Systems FLEX-5000C Quick Start Manual page 4

Information:
Your product contains a fully integrated computer as well as the FLEX-5000C radio. Setup involves
the same steps as first use of a new desktop or laptop computer. Before using the FLEX-5000C
radio functions, you must initialize the computer operating system. The keyboard and mouse must
be ready before the radio is turned on.
Before applying power to the radio, please unpack the Keyboard, Mouse and
USB wireless interface. Please observe proper polarity on the batteries.
Install (2) AAA batteries into the battery compartment in the bottom of the wireless
computer keyboard. Additional instructions may be found on the label underneath the
keyboard.
Install (2) AA batteries into the wireless mouse. The battery door covers the lower half of
the mouse and may be removed by a pressing/sliding motion on top of the product logo.
With the mouse in the operating position, the battery cover slides away from the
buttons/scroll wheel and toward you as you remove it.
Four USB jacks are to the right of the purple keyboard connector and just below the IEEE
1394/FireWire
these USB jacks. The green and purple 6-pin Mini DIN PS/2-style connectors on the
wireless interface are not used if a USB connection is made.
If connecting additional USB devices, any USB jack will work with any USB device.
Connect the supplied IEEE 1394/FireWire cable between the computer
motherboard
The FireWire cable is similar in shape to USB cables but is square on one side and beveled
on the other. Each end has the same connector.
Connect the supplied FireWire cable end containing the ferrite core to either jack on the
rear of the radio. Make sure the ferrite core is as close to the jack as possible.
These are labeled IEEE 1394 and are located just below and to the right of the 13.8V
power connector. The end of this cable without the ferrite core fits into the FireWire
connector to the right of the green mouse connector and has "1394" labeled above it.
Connect a monitor or LCD display to the blue 15 pin D-sub VGA connector.
Even though the system supports digital video through the two additional DVI connectors,
it is necessary to use the 15-pin D-sub connector to initialize the computer. The DVI
connector or the D-sub may be used after initialization
Connect a properly matched antenna or 50 ohm dummy load to the ANT 1
