Programming with
RSS
Introduction
The PDR 3500 uses the same RSS (Radio Service Software) as the
Quantar/Quantro family. Some values shown in RSS screens may
not be valid due to hardware differences between the Quantar
Station and the PDR 3500. A thorough explanation of the
differences will be given in the following sections.
Connecting PC to
PDR 3500 RSS Port
Once the RSS Program has been loaded onto the PC (refer to
Quantar RSS User’s Guide, 68P81085E35), the PC must be
electrically connected to the PDR 3500 via the RSS port located on
the top panel. For this connection, a 9-pin female to 9-pin male EIA-
232 cable is available (Motorola part number 30-80369E31) from
the Accessories and Aftermarket Product Division (AAD, formerly
known as Motorola National Parts). A cable can also be made using
the wiring diagram in Figure 1.
