6.3.2 Module Programming
Before starting programming, have a PC running MS-Windows © and the Tait PGM800Win soft-
ware for Series II Base station.
This program supports the use of a mouse but may be used without one if required. Keyboard
access follows the conventional MS-Windows © method as briefly described below:
- Press and hold the “Alt” key while pressing at the same time the relevant hotkey as indicated
by an underlined letter on the menu command.
- On a drop-down menu, press only the hotkey without pressing the “Alt” key.
- Use the “Tab” key to cycle available fields and the “Enter” key to validate entries. E.g.
Pressing “Alt”+F opens the File drop-down menu and pressing “A” opens the Save As di-
rectory service box.
Receiver VCO and front-end alignment will be required when new receiver frequency is pro-
grammed outside the radio tuning range:
UHF = ± 2.5 MHz from previous center frequency.
VHF = ± 1.5 MHz from previous center frequency.
Exciter and PA alignment will be required when new transmitter frequency is programmed outside
the radio tuning range:
VHF & UHF= ± 4 MHz from previous center frequency.
1. Connect the PC, via the supplied programming lead, to the speaker panel’s front-mounted
RJ11 connector.
2. Run Tait PGM800Win program and follow instructions found in the T800 Programming Soft-
ware User’s Manual to select the proper module to be programmed.
3. Program required channel's frequencies.
– Do not program any CTCSS tones on channels.
– Do not change any other parameters.
– Refer to Figure 23, Figure 24, Figure 25 and Figure 26 for screen program examples.
4. Save the base station programming info to a file for further reference.
