SUPPLIED ACCESSORIES • DC power cable • Operating manual • Basic control software for testing purposes, on CD. This software does not support USB connections, only RS-232C. If your PC (particularly laptops) does not feature a RS232C port, you may alternatively use a “USB to SERIAL” adapter. This software is supplied “as is” without any guarantee of any kind. • • Complete command list (inside the manual) USB driver on CD.
CONNECTIONS Refer to this diagram for connection details: BAC 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 FRON T 10 ① 10.7MHz IF OUT with +/- 5MHz of bandwidth. ② Headphone socket (3.5mm mono jack, also wired for stereo plug). When this socket is used, any external speaker connected to socket (3) will be automatically disconnected. ③ External speaker socket (3.5mm mono). The speaker should have a nominal 8 Ω impedance and power handling of 2 Watts or greater. ④ Accessory socket.
⑤ RS-232C socket for PC control. The connection cable is not supplied.. ⑥ USB socket for PC control. The connection cable is not supplied. When you connect the SR2200 (power ON) to the PC for the first time, Windows will detect the USB connection and ask you for a driver. At this time insert the supplied CD and find the folder named “USB DRIVER”. Driver installation will be automatic. Please note that the supplied SR2200 control software does not function with a USB connection.
CONTROL COMMANDS FOR TERMINAL SOFTWARE The SR2200 is operated via PC using the RS232C, or USB port. The commands necessary to that effect, are described in this chapter. Microsoft Windows Hyper Terminal may be used to control the SR2200, or you may use your own software by integrating the following commands.
DB3 ......... processed as DB003 DB03 ....... processed as DB003 However be aware that for some commands like Memory Channel or Search Bank, if you input MQ33 for MQ303 (bank 3, channel 3), the SR2000 would mistakenly correct your entry to MQ033 which means bank 0, channel 33.

USING THE SUPPLIED “SR2200 CONTROL SOFTWARE”” The software is supplied "as is" for testing purposes, with no warranty nor formal support. The “SR2200 CONTROL SOFTWARE” only recognizes the receiver’s RS232C connector. If your PC (particularly laptops) does not feature a RS232C port, you may alternatively use a “USB to SERIAL” adapter. System requirements: • IBM PC compatible receiver with an available RS232C port. • • • Microsoft® Windows® 98 up to Vista (32 bit). 64bit systems not supported.
When using a “USB to serial” adapter, the COM number Windows automatically assigns can be quite high, such as 5 to 8. You will need to select the correct COM port, as pictured. It is possible that you then may have to close the program and to start it again, for the connection to be recognized. Please make sure that the RS232C port speed is set at 38400 bps and not 19200 bps, otherwise the connection with the PC will fail. Access this option by selecting COM > Speed and then select “38400 bps”.
The following window will appear: ③ Input the desired frequency in the left frame and click OK. If other frequencies have been stored previously in other VFO’s, you may select one in the right window, transfer it to the left window by clicking on the <= arrow, and validate with OK. OTHER FUNCTIONS 1 2 3 4 9 5 8 7 6 ① Reception Modes: You have to manually choose between: AM (Amplitude Modulation). IF filter bandwidth of 6 kHz. NFM (Narrow Band Frequency Modulation): IF filter bandwidth of 15kHz.
② Frequency Step size: You have to manually choose between 0.1, 0.5, 1, 2, 5, 6.25, 9, 10, 12.5, 20, 25, 30, 50, and 100kHz. ③ RF Preamplifier: Select either “auto”, “ON” or no selection for disabling the preamplifier. ④ RF Attenuator: Select either “auto”, “0dB”, “10”dB, or “20dB” of attenuation. ⑤ Signal Strength Meter: It is for relative signal strength comparison and calibration may not be totally reliable. ⑥ Squelch Control: There are 2 types supported, NOISE squelch and (signal) LEVEL squelch.
