AW900R4
User’s Manual
Dumping a large volume of data at a xed high Baud rate runs the risk of data
corruption if anything (tuning, noise retries, channel switching, etc.) causes
the 4 KB buffer in the sending radio to be overwritten.
9. The AW900R4’s chosen conguration can be saved to a local data le for future
use by clicking the “Save” button. You might want to do this when conguring both
ends of a link since many of the parameters will be the same. The conguration can
then be retrieved using the “Load” button. In each case, a File Explorer popup al-
lows you to save and retrieve the cong le to a location of your choice. The default
lename is EVK.conf.
10. When you are ready to upload the conguration to the AW900R4, click the
“Send” button. This uploads the conguration and causes the radio to reboot. You
can reboot without upload by clicking “Reboot Target.” Keep straight which COM
port belongs to which USB interface. It is common to connect the two radios of
a link at the same time to two different USB ports and if you get confused about
which port is which, the wrong conguration can be overwritten.
11. After all radios in the group are congured and rebooted, they should success-
fully nd each other and link. The successful accomplishment of this linkage can
be determined either by the Stats & Spectrum tab in EvkUtilityLite or by seeing the
correct pattern of LEDs on the modules.
12. Click the Stats & Spectrum tab at the top of the EvkUtilityLite window. Make
sure that you select the right COM port with the dropdown menu at the top. (It
will not change automatically to match the port selected on the Boot Conguration
tab.) This page will appear:
