The “FLASH” software is the current version of the

LPE-200 radio operating software. When changes and

enhancements are made to the operating code, the new

operating code can be “FLASHED” to the radio, upgrading

the operating code without any hardware changes to the

radio. Flash software is simply a computer file which is read

from a disk and downloaded to the radio using the PC

Programmer. The Equipment Setup shown in Figure 7 is

same as for Personality Programming.

The PC Programmer cannot communicate with the

radio unless the radio is in the Programming Mode. To

place the radio in Programming Mode:

1. Initially the radio should be OFF.

2. Press and hold the PTT, Monitor and Clear buttons.

3. Power the radio ON. Release the buttons.

4. All pixels on the display should be lit until

communication with the PC begins.

The objective of this section is to guide in quickly

isolating a problem to either hardware or software. Software

errors and problems can usually be corrected in the field.

Hardware failures are difficult to isolate and sometimes very

tedious to repair without specialized tools. As stated

previously, hardware repair to this radio is very limited at

best and not recommended. Service Parts has set up a

Repair and Return policy. Service Parts has also made

provisions for Circuit Board and Module replacement as

required.

This section includes a General Troubleshooting Table

and Test Point Diagram for checking Nominal

Transmit/Receive Levels (not recommended). Start by

following Table 1 - General Troubleshooting and then use

the remaining reference material as needed.
