Using the RF 7000 Configuration Utility

After you install the Configuration Utility from the CD or from the web, make sure your Base Station or Relay is attached to one of the computer COM ports using the 9 pin serial cable (F36) cable included with your system and that the power supply (5v from Worth Data ONLY) is plugged in. A Base Station will light the LED Green, while a Base jumpered as a Relay will light a the LED Yellow, so be sure your unit is jumpered properly.

Start the RF 7000 Configuration Utility.

If you know which COM port you are attached to, select that port in the program, then click "Continue". If you are unsure of the COM port number, the program can find it for you. Enter the range of COM ports to search, then click "Find Base Station".

The program will look for the Base or Relay and determine its current configuration. Once the program finds it, it will display the Device Type (BASE or RELAY), the RF Channel (default is 01) and the Firmware Version (xxxxx-pp). The first five characters are for the main processor's firmware, which can be updated by you from the latest firmware always available on our website. The last two last two characters are the firmware version of the radio processor; this is not field updateable. If these two characters don't show, (you see only xxxxx), it means your radio processor is not responding and you need to call us to authorize a repair.

If you want to change any of the settings (Baud, Parity, Data Bits and Stop Bits), you can do so by clicking the desired setting.

If you are configuring a Relay, the first Relay should be configured as Relay ID "0", which is the default. If you have more than one Relay, then select the desired Relay ID for this unit.
