After making a selection via the function keys, you will be directed to similar sub-menus and/or
data entry screens. From any point in the program, you may always return to the MAIN Menu by
pressing the ESC (Escape) key.
Each programmer function is described briefly in the remainder of this section.
F1
The HELP function gives specific information regarding the current menu or highlighted
data field. By pressing F1, the help menu screen will be generated in which F1 provides
you general help, F2 provides keyboard help, F5 prints out a hard copy of the help
screen, and F9 prints "other" help, or help related to a particular menu.
All HELP functions are explained in detail in Section V.
F2
The SERVICE function allows you to access alignment parameters in which sub-menus
are provided in order to ALIGN RADIO, ALIGN CHANNEL, or ALIGN SCAN CONTROLS.
All SERVICE functions are explained in detail in Section VI.
F3
The GET/SAVE/PROGRAM CODEPLUG DATA FROM/TO DISK/CODEPLUG function
provides all disk and codeplug interfacing. You may either choose from a READ/WRITE
RADIO sub-menu, or a LOAD/SAVE/DELETE Codeplug From Disk sub-menu. The
READ function will read the present radio codeplug data from the radio and generate a
field programmer PC file. The WRITE function actually generates the codeplug data and
writes the present radio personality into the EEPROMS in the radio. The LOAD/SAVE
and DELETE RADIO CONFIGURATION DATA is used to Read codeplug data from an
archived codeplug image on a diskette or hard disk for editing purposes (via
create/change/view function). The LOAD/SAVE is also used to Save a modified codeplug
image back onto the diskette (or hard disk) or to delete a file from disk.
All GET/SAVE/PROGRAM functions are explained in detail in Section VII.
F4
The CHANGE/CREATE/VIEW RADIO CODEPLUG DATA allows all editing of the radio
personality features such as creating, changing, or merely viewing the current radio
codeplug data.
All CHANGE/CREATE/VIEW functions are explained in detail in Section VIII.
F5
The PRINT function produces permanent hard copy records of codeplug configurations. A
printer is required and should be connected to your computer per your instruction manual.
All PRINT functions are explained in detail in Section IX.
F9
The SETUP COMPUTER CONFIGURATION function is used to configure your SABER
Radio Service Software to your particular application. Default disk drives, communication
ports, etc... may be customized to your specific needs.
All SETUP COMPUTER CONFIGURATION functions were explained in Section IV-A.
F10
The EXIT function is used to quit the present program and return to the previous menu.
Be sure all desired codeplug changes have been programmed back to the radio, and
that an archive copy has been made. Otherwise all changes will be lost since returning
to DOS erases this data from the computer's memory.
