PRODUCT PROGRAMMING
Midian’s TVS-2 and VPU-15 are programmed using Midian’s KL-4F and MPS software. Please reference the KL-
4 manual for setup instructions of the KL-4 hardware.
KL4-F USB PORT ASSIGNMENT and SOFTWARE INSTALLATION
Go to our website midians.com and under downloads> software download the latest MPS software version. If
using the supplied CD-ROM insert it into the PC’s CD-ROM drive. In the browser that will pop-up, install the MPS
programming software. Be certain that the “Install KL-4 USB Driver” box is checked during the installation
process.
Open Windows’ Control Panel and go to Device Manager.
Open Ports (COM& LPT) to identify the port assignment issued by computer. Plug in the KL4 programmer to the
USB port and the screen will flash and show the device location.
Open the software and choose product from product tree then set appropriate comport selection in the MPS
software as needed, from the product selection screen on the programming software, select the appropriate
product from the list and click OK. Set the parameters of the TVS-2\VPU-15 software to fit the application. If any
clarifications on a feature are required, move the mouse cursor over the feature name until the question mark
appears and right click, a definition of the feature will be shown.
After entering the parameters, save the file by going to File - Save As. Enter the file name in the File Name block
and click Save. Saving the file will allow for quick and easy reprogramming of units.
The TVS-2 and VPU-15 require the following additional connections from the flea clips to the P2* connector of the
module:
Green – Program In
– Connect to the Midian product’s Program In P2:8*.
Yellow – Program Out
– Connect to the Midian product’s Program Out P2:10*.
*Please reference the pictorial at the end this manual for location of programming connections.*
Important Note:
Do not attempt to ‘clone’ the scrambler by reading one and then programming another. When
the scrambler is read, the security codes will be read out as zeroes. If another scrambler is then cloned with this
information, the scramblers will be incompatible because they have different security codes. To ensure
scramblers communicate with each other, program them from a saved
file.
