Tuning and Configuration
If your TB8100 BSS has not been tuned to your requirements at the factory, you will need to tune
the reciter modules before operating them in your radio system. To do this you will need to use
the Calibration Kit software included on the Product CD, plus the TB8100 calibration test unit.
The TB8100 BSS has been programmed with a default software configuration and default
passwords at the factory. You will need to use the Service Kit software to configure your BSS to
suit the requirements of your radio system. Refer to the Calibration Kit and Service Kit
documentation for full details on these procedures.
