Tuning and Configuration
If your TB7100 base station has not been tuned to your requirements at the factory, you will need
to tune the base station before operating it. To do this you will need to use the Calibration
Application software included on the Product CD, plus the TBA0ST1 calibration test unit
including the TB7100 adapter board. The TB7100 base station has been programmed with a default
software configuration and default passwords at the factory. You will need to use the Program
Application software to configure your base station to suit the requirements of your radio system.
Refer to the Calibration Application and Program Application documentation for full details on
these procedures. If a duplexer has been ordered, it will be tuned at the factory.
