User's Manual

achieve equal balance and deviation may differ. One can actually modify the calculated deviation and
balance values per channel by entering values in the boxes, but this requires the services of a very qualified
technician and the proper test equipment. The radio has been properly aligned at the factory and should not
need to be adjusted. Details on how to perform these adjustments are found in the Alignment section.
TX Low Power and TX High Power- Sets the global power level for the transmitter in watts for the two
positions of the CSN input. A logic high on the CSN input would cause the radio to use the TX High Power
setting while a logic low on the CSN would cause the radio to use the TX Low Power setting. Note that the
names Low and High Power are purely arbitrary and that the Low Power value can actually be set to be
higher than the High Power value if desired. If it is desired that the power levels be set different values for
different channels, the desired power levels can be inserted into the box at the bottom of the page. Note,
however, if a change is made in the TX Low Power and/or TX High Power values in the slide bar area, it
will affect all channels equally.
Instructions for using the alignment page can be found in section 13 of this manual.
6.5.4 SUMMARY
The summary page summarizes the information shown on the other three pages and, in addition, includes
the model and serial number of the unit.
6.5.5 RESTORE EEPROM
This selection is used to load a previously saved radio configuration file to the radio connected to the
programmer. This is of benefit when a number of radios are to set to the same frequencies and with the
same switch settings. There are three options for this page, but none will copy the deviation and balance
settings since these are unique to each radio, even if the actual deviation of a set of radios is identical. The
top selection allows all settable parameters, including power levels and squelch settings to be read. The
second selection does not read in the power levels and squelch in case these have already been set in the
recipient radio. The last selection is for someone who has a configuration file from a series DTX-X54 and
want to load it into the series DTX-X60. Older radio parameters are converted and presented such that the
audio levels should be the same. Note that the RF power levels and squelch levels cannot be converted and
must be set on the new radio by hand.
6.5.6 SAVING A CONFIGURATION
Upon exiting the programmer via the exit button, the user will be presented with a box which allows the
saving of the current configuration. This is useful if a number of other radios are to be programmed with
the same frequencies and settings. If one does not wish to save the current configuration, the cancel icon
should be selected. Also, if changes to the radio have been made via the programmer and the radio has not
been updated, the user will be prompted to update the radio.
