Code Upgrading
The CDR-915L has been designed for easy field upgrades. Using the RS-232
Serial Adapter board, a DR915 Programming cable, a standard Serial
Configuration cable and a current version of the CDR-915L/LT Configuration
program running on the user’s PC, the radio can be re-flashed with new
operating code. Special customer code can also be loaded in this manner.
With the radio mounted on an RS232 Serial Adapter board, connect a
program upgrade cable from the programming connector, J4, on the Adapter
board to the parallel port on the PC. Connect a standard DB9 male-to-
female serial cable from the Adapter board’s DB9, J2, and to the serial port
on the PC. Power the Adapter board using the supplied 12-volt wall module
connected to the Adapter board’s power jack, P8.
Using the CDR-915L/LT Configuration program, click on the Flash tab.
Select the software version from the Software Version drop-down box and
then press the Program Flash button. The Configuration program will then
read the setup information from the radio, upgrade the radio code and
reload the original configuration.
