3.0 TUNING TRANSCEIVER PERFORMANCE
AutoWAVE allows you to tune several parameters to optimize its performance for your particular
application. All adjustments are done through the AutoWAVE setup program, a user interface
which eliminates the need for setup diskettes, dipswitch settings, or custom software.
The setup program is started by connecting AutoWAVE to any terminal program, setting the baud
rate for that terminal to 19200 baud, and using a small pointed object to press the Setup Button on
the side of the enclosure. Any terminal or personal computer may be used for setup as long as it will
operate within the parameters listed below.

When the setup program is initiated all three LEDs in the AutoWAVE window will turn green and
remain green for the entire time the transceiver is in setup mode. The main menu screen for the
setup program is shown in figure 1:
