Primary
The Primary Hex Terminal screen selects a Hexadecimal Terminal screen to send and receive Hexadecimal
data on the Primary COM Port (set up in the Port Settings screen).
Secondary
The Secondary Hex Terminal screen selects a Hexadecimal Terminal screen to send and receive
Hexadecimal data on the Secondary COM Port (set up in the Port Settings screen).
2.5.16 PROGRAM CODE
The Program Code pull-down menu allows the user to update the T-96SR firmware (*.bin) with the
Program Firmware option. Select Modem Code File allows the user to select the file to program the
firmware in the T-96SR.
2.5.17 END TO END TEST
Two Dataradio T-96SRs can be tested using the Dataradio T-96SR Field Programming Software. The Field
Programming Software has several useful utilities embedded in the program that assist in testing the
wireless modems. The testing setup requires a computer running the Field Programming Software attached
to each user COM port on the T-96SR wireless modems. The Utilities will allow the user to send ASCII text
or Hex characters through the T-96SRs being tested.
The T-96SRs must be setup so that they have the appropriate receive and transmit signal levels for the test.
The signal strength will be much stronger if the units are tested on the bench compared to being tested in a
field installation. These signals must be attenuated or the output power level adjusted if the units are being
tested on the bench.
Under the “Utilities” menu choose the “ASCII Terminal”. From the “ASCII Terminal” screen, choose the
“Primary” selection. This will open an ASCII terminal window using the primary COM port of the
computer. This procedure should be done for both T-96SRs.
The ASCII Terminal utility has provisions for transmitting the ASCII data, displaying received ASCII data
and displaying ASCII transmitted data. Figure 2-23 shows the window for the Primary ASCII Terminal.
