PC Configure Upgrade Instructions
After installing a new version of PC Configure, be sure to transfer the system key and data
files as described below. Previous PC Configure versions can then be safely uninstalled if
desired (although a previous version does not need to be removed to run a new version).
1
Install the new version of the PC Configure programming software on your computer’s
hard drive. The default location of this software is C:\Program Files\EF Johnson\
PC Configure.
2
Using the Windows
®
File Explorer application, copy the system key and data files from
the previous PC Configure “Data” and “Keys” folders to the same folders of the new
PC Configure version.

Initial Setup

Connect the programming cable to the serial port of your computer. Remove the
accessory/programming jack cover on the side of the 5100 ES radio and connect the
other end of the programming cable to this jack.
2
Start the PC Configure program.
3
From PC Configure, open the
Radio
menu and select
Series
> “
5100 Portable
”. Then
open the
Transfer
menu and select
Baud Rates
> “
115200
” baud.
Note
If a communication error occurs, try selecting a lower baud rate.
4
From PC Configure, verify the current code version by opening the
Transfer
menu and
selecting
Read Version Info from Radio

window that is displayed. This indicates what code base version to use. For example, if
the radio currently has Ver 4.8.x, the new code must have a 4.x.x version number.

on the included CD-ROM to the PPC\5100 folder under the new version of PC
Configure located at C:\Program Files\EF Johnson\PCConfigure.
