Trailblazer Installation and User Manual version 1.03

Preceding future integration of these functions into the
GUI software, some system configurations must be
performed on a manual text entry level. To do this, you
can interface with the Trailblazer radio card using
either the GUI software on the Terminal screen
(See Section 3.1.3) or by using the
HyperTerminal™ software. You will also need to add
a 50ms delay to the linefeed in your terminal
ASCII settings in order to send text commands to the
Trailblazer radio through terminal software. See the
screenshot (right) for an example.
Begin by starting the GUI or making sure your
terminal software is loaded and properly
configured to communicate with the Trailblazer radios. See Section 6.4 for configuration
instructions.
Each setting is controlled by a short “command name” followed by an EEprom register
or “switch” designated by a letter or letters on your screen. Type the command name for
the function you wish to implement followed by the appropriate “switch” and press enter.
The Trailblazer radio card should respond by echoing the new setting back to you. It
usually takes (7) sets of these commands to configure a radio card for any of its many
functional states. The settings may be changed one at a time or combined in a text file,
known as a “script”, and loaded into the Trailblazer radio card. See the following table
for details and examples.
