Setup Mode
When GINA is turned on, type the word
GINA
within 5-seconds
to enter
the setup mode (or, if the CONMODE command is set to “1” (transparent
mode), press
<CTRL> + <V>
three times). Once in the setup mode, the
radio responds with the following prompt:
SET UP > Enter command sets
NOTE:
Any PC with standard communication software or a dumb termi-
nal peripheral can be used to send ASCII commands to GINA. In addi-
tion, GINA is initially factory set at 9600 baud. The communication
software must be initially set up for 9600,8,N,1.
After completion, type
QUIT
and GINA enters either transparent mode
or transparent permanent mode (depending on how CONMODE is set).
If there are no changes in the parameters (commands), GINA enters one
of the transparent modes 5 seconds after it has been turned on.
