7.1 About Advanced Setup
To get the most from your radio system you must customise the programming for your
operations and area.
CAUTION: Before you start programming your radio make sure the batteries are fresh and
fully charged. If the radio loses power while you program it, its memory might be corrupted
which will require you to reset defaults. All information programmed in the radio might be
lost. Alternatively, you could use an AC adapter to power your radio.
The Nano Transmitter uses the Nano TX Controller software running on your PC which
enables you to perform many configuration tasks quickly and easily. These next topics tell
you how to connect your PC to the Nano Transmitter and then use your Nano TX Controller
to configure the unit.

Controller" is required for control. This supersedes the Nano TX specific controller and can be
used for both.
