7.5. Demonstration Procedure
The procedure below provides a quick demonstration of the WIT241x.
1. Attach a transceiver to each computer, preferably between 5' and 30' apart for
convenience.
2. Start WinCOM running on both computers If you prefer, almost any other serial
communications program such as Procomm or QModem set for 9600 bps will
also work.
also work.
3. Turn the radios on and use the function keys to set DTR and RTS to 1 (if you are
using a terminal program other than COM24, these are typically set
automatically). The radio should respond by setting both DSR and CTS to 1, and
transmit a short sign-on message including the firmware version and whether the
unit is configured as a base or remote. Watch the states of the hardware control
lines on the status bar as you do this. The DCD indicator should be lit on the base
station. After a few seconds, the remote unit will acquire the base station's signal
and also assert its DCD signal.

4. Access modem control mode for each unit. To access modem control mode, use
the F1 key to toggle DTR to 0 and back to 1 and then press the F3 key, which
sends the ":wit2400" escape sequence. If you are not using COM24, simply turn
the radio off and back on and then type ":wit2400" (must be lower case, no
backspace characters). The transceiver should echo back “

” to indicate that you
have entered modem control mode.
Check the remote unit's hopping pattern by
entering "wn?" at the prompt. The remote should respond with "0", the default
setting. Check that the base station's hopping pattern matches this by entering
"wn?" at the base station.

"wn?" at the base station.
5. Exit control mode by entering "z>". Do this for both radios. At this point, you
should be able to type characters into either radio and see them appear at the other
side. If you are using WinCOM, you can press the F6 key to transmit a repeating
test pattern.

6. For a range test, disconnect the remote station from the computer and power
supply. The DCD indicator should remain lit as long as the base station is in
range..

7. Exit COM24 by pressing the ESC key.
