An XG-100M radio with a CH-721 control head must use a TIA/EIA/RS-232C serial cable connection for
programming. The serial cable connects to the 9-pin D-subminiature (DB-9) connector on the rear of the
radio.
A USB or a Bluetooth link is the preferred connection method for an XG-100M radio with a
CH-100 control head. These links support programming of up to ten (10) personalities/mission
plans into the radio. Only one personality/mission plan is active at a time.
An XG-100M radio with a CH-721 control head can only have one (1) personality/mission
plan. It is always active.
A personality/mission plan loaded into the radio via a TIA/EIA/RS-232C serial link cannot be
extracted (read back) via a USB or Bluetooth link.
Personality for the VHF Low Band power output is setup in RPM by selecting the Sets->Conventional
Frequency Set controls and select the Conventional Frequency Set tab. In the Channel Options
section, set Power to either Low (30 Watts) or High (100 Watts).
