Connecting the Receiver and a
Computer
To configure, manage files, or maintain the receiver, connect the
receiver and a computer, and start PC-CDU:

RS232 cable, or the USB cable), you will be able to:
• configure the receiver and its components
• send commands to the receiver
• download files from the receiver’s memory
• load new firmware using FLoader™, OAFs, and configuration
files to a receiver
