Handheld Device

!

Using the two Comtech EF Data cables provided (CEFD part numbers
PP/PALM-P10804U, Palm to 9 pin D (female) and CA/WR9902, 9 pin D (male)
to RED Box), connect the Palm

 handheld device to the 19 pin M&C connector

on the RED Box. Alternately, if a non-redundant (standalone) system is used,
connect the provided cables to the XCVR 19 pin M&C connector directly. See
note below.

!

Turn power on the Palm

 m500 and press the CPLINK icon to start the CPLINK

program. The Main Menu will be displayed.

Note: If using a Palm

 m100 or m105 only one cable (CEFD part number CA/WR9185) is

required to connect the Palm to the RED Box or single XCVR. The Palm

 m125, m500 and

other models use two interconnecting cables to provide communication from the Palm to the RED
Box. See Appendix item 6 for additional details.
