ADL Vantage/ADL Vantage Pro/ADL Vantage 35
Setup in the Office
1.
Plug the radio’s desktop power supply into the wall. You may alternatively use an
approved 12 Volt battery for power. But you must never power a radio with a battery
while it is being recharged. This will damage the battery.
2.
Attach the desktop power supply’s (or battery’s) SAE connector to the radio programming
cable’s SAE connector.
3.
Attach the programming cable’s DE-9 connector into a serial port on your PC. If your PC
does not have a serial port, you should use a serial-to-USB adaptor.
4.
Attach the programming cable’s LEMO plug (with the red dot facing up) into the bottom
of the radio. This will turn the radio on.
5.
Install ADLCONF, available for free download from
http://www.pacificcrest.com/support.php?page=updates
.
6.
Launch ADLCONF and refer to its user guide for instructions on connecting to ADL radios.
The user guide is displayed when you click Help > User Guide on ADLCONF’s main menu.
In most cases, you simply click the Connect button on the right of the ADLCONF main
screen.
7.
After connecting to the radio for the first time you should click File > Export and save a
copy of the radio’s original configuration to your PC. You also can return the radio to its
factory configuration by clicking File > Import and selecting this file. You will not lose any
channel tables or personalized configurations such as Owner Name or Call Sign by
importing a configuration file.
