Your Wamba receiver has an embedded program allowing you to transfer data with another Aston receiver
of the same type or a PC. To use this program, a special connection kit is required according to the type of
receiver used. You can obtain this from your nearest ASTON (1) distributor.
If you wish to connect your decoder to a PC, you will require the software program called SetEdit which can
be downloaded via the ASTON website www.aston-france.com (2)
Transferring data between 2 terminals
This allows you to transmit data from one “transmitter” terminal ( the one which transmits the data ) to a
“receiver” terminal ( the one that receives the data) in the following way :
• The installation configuration.
• The channel, radio and data lists.
• The favorites lists and their names.
Use the respective cable to connect the 2 decoders the go to the MAIN MENU of the 2 decoders :
• Send the code 0000 to the “transmitter” terminal, the display will then show the message SENDER on
the front panel. You have then 30 seconds to put the other decoder in to “receiver” mode.
