Parameter Menus & System Set-up
There are no controls on the UCS PRO itself. The various parameters are adjusted by attaching the unit to a suitable
Personal Computer (PC) running our dedicated Windows compatible PC Editor software (available as a free download
from our website at www.altomobile.com).
Hook-up to the computer is achieved with the UCS PRO's 9-pin RS232 serial interface port, which is located on the same
side as the audio input/output terminals.
The large 25-pin socket on the UCS PRO is ready for the optional RM2 hardware Programmer. Do not
attempt to connect your PC to the 25-pin port - damage may result if you do.
IMPORTANTIMPORTANT
If you have had your UCS PRO professionally installed and set-up for you, there should be no need to alter any settings.
The unit features a password access system that your installer may have set in Lock mode to safeguard the settings.
Connection to the PC (RS232, 9-pin socket)
The RS232 port allows incoming and outgoing communication between the UCS PRO and a PC. Real-time control and
set-up is possible. Set-ups made using the PC Editor can be saved as a PRESET configuration and downloaded to the
UCS PRO, where it is then stored in the unit's internal non-volatile memory. Settings stored in the UCS PRO can also be
uploaded to the PC for further editing.
1] Ensure that power to the UCS PRO and the computer is switched OFF.
2] Connect the UCS PRO to the PC's RS232 serial port using a data cable with 9-pin female plugs. The required data
cable is known as a 'null modem' (also data transfer) type serial interface cable (this is normally supplied with the UCS
PRO). Attach the other end to the 9-pin socket situated next to the audio output terminals of the UCS PRO.
3] Turn on your audio system, including the UCS PRO. Now boot-up your computer and run the PC Editor (see "First
Steps with the PC EDITOR").
