The modem call book is where we enter the remote radio’s serial number. The serial number is
found on the outside case of each radio or in the main menu header when set-up mode is invoked.
Radios will only receive messages from a relay listed in its call book.

The Frequency Key (FreqKey) is used to minimize interference from other radios in the area.
Insure that the master and slave pair of radios are set on the same hopping pattern, but different
from other transceivers in the area (if known).
From the radio parameters menu enter “0” followed by an “F” to set the hop table size to 112 and
the hop freq offset to zero.

Once these settings are entered, return to the main menu and press ESC to discontinue the setup
mode; the radio should immediately begin normal operation.
To connect the radio to the antenna, use a low-loss RF coaxial cable. FreeWave recommends the
use of tuned surge protection, installed between the radio and the antenna; this device can be
installed at either end, or in the middle of the coaxial cable.
