To connect to the reciter
1. Remove the reciter from the subrack (for instructions, see the Installation
and Operation Manual).
2. Set up the equipment as follows.
■ Connect the reciter to the calibration and test unit (CTU) using the 16-
way cable.
■ Connect your computer to the CTU by plugging the RS-232 cable into
the programming port.
■ Using the power cable supplied in the calibration test kit, connect the
reciter to the 10-30 V DC power supply, but do not power it up yet.
3. Start the TB8100 Calibration Kit program, and check that the correct COM
port is selected.
4. Click Connect to start the connection process.
5. When you see the “Waiting for logon prompt from Reciter” screen, power
up the reciter. If it is already on, turn it off, and then on.
6. When the TB8100 Calibration Kit program has successfully connected to
the reciter, the Calibration Wizards are displayed in the main window.
You are now ready to tune and calibrate the reciter.
