Step 2 Install the Frequency Management Software Note The E OSMAC decoder Frequency Management Program written for use on a compatible PC running under the Windows 95 98 or NT operating system allows the user to view the current frequency settings in the E Sereis or RDR OSMAC frequency decoder card and to change the settings to appropriate values Data can be saved on computer disc files for later retrieval and values can be edited in order to simplify the chores of modifying frequency selections continued Software Installation Procedure continued A Important As is the case during any program installation it may be necessary to update some Windows files There is always the possibility that some software in a system can be damaged in this process It is recom mended to save any of the PC s valuable data files on diskette or a network before installing the program e Insert Diskette 1 into the floppy drive Use standard Windows procedures to start the installation For example Click on Start then Run then Browse to A SETUP EXE The install wizard should begin operation and will ask several questions during the installation process It is recommended that the program be placed in a folder named EOSMACFO When all questions have been answered the wizard will complete the installation Note If the frequency reprogramming software was provided via email or some similar method create a new folder on your C drive or network
3. E Series and RDR OSMAC Narrow Band Satellite Controller TORO Frequency Reprogramming Kit P N 102 1208 and 102 1230 User s Guide Introduction The E Series and RDR OSMAC narrow band satellite frequency decoder module provides four preprogrammed frequencies one of which is selected for use by the placement of a movable jumper located on the module board The decoder module utilizes a programmable frequency synthesizer which enables each of the preprogrammed frequen cies to be changed as needed for the irrigation site conditions The software and hardware components provided in this kit enable the frequency reprogramming task to be easily accomplished The Frequency Reprogramming Kit includes the following components e External 12 V a c power supply 120 V a c input for kit 102 1208 and 240 V a c input for kit 102 1230 e Power supply interface adapter and 20 pin ribbon cable for E Sereis OSMAC power connection e Interface cable assembly for RDR OSMAC power connection e DB 9 serial cable for decoder module to PC connection Two 3 5 floppy diskettes containing the Frequency Management Program software Computer System Requirements The Frequency Management Program which occupies less than 5 megabytes of disc space runs on a standard PC with enough internal memory to run applications under the Windows operating system The PC must have at least one stan dard communications port capable of attaching to a device at 1200 baud
4. Step 1 Remove the Decoder Module from the Satellite Controller Figure 1 A Caution Potential damage can occur to the satellite controller if the decoder module is not disconnected from the controller or RDR unit prior to performing the frequency reprogramming procedure For E Series OSMAC satellite e Place the satellite controller power switch in the Off O position e Open the cabinet lid and remove the clear plastic cover from the decoder module assembly e Release the ribbon cable connector from the decoder module by moving the cable receptacle locking tabs outward e Carefully remove the decoder module from the controller by compressing the four standoff locking tabs indicated in Figure 1 using needle nose pliers or a flat blade screwdriver Carefully lift each corner of the module upward just Figure 2 enough to keep the standoff locking tab compressed When all four standoffs 7 are compressed remove the module assembly from the controller For RDR OSMAC satellite Locate the RDR decoder module and unplug the Black common wire to disconnect power to the module Remove the Orange 12 V a c power wire Red 26 V a c power wire and the flat ribbon cable Remove any wires connected to the decoder module terminal block and note their position for proper reinstallation See Figure 2 e Carefully slide the decoder module out or the RDR unit
