VI. SERVICING THE RADIO
All radio alignment procedures are accessed from the SERVICE menu. A radio must be
connected to your computer via a RIB and cables, and the radio turned ON before you will be
permitted to access the SERVICE screens. Refer to the SABER SERVICE AIDS list in Appendix-
7 for all the service aids, service tools, and recommended test equipment that you may require
to program, align, and test SABER radios.
All SERVICE screens do NOT read and program the radio codeplug directly, you have to use the
READ/WRITE functions before and after using the SERVICE menus.
