The following shows the default data for the above macros. If you want to change the repeater’s transmit power, you will need
to modify macros at line 50 and 53, see the following page for more information on this subject.

Changing Transmitter Power Level on the VXR-5000
If you have enabled the above macros in your VXR-5000 and need to adjust the transmitter power level, use the following
procedure:
1. Connect a wattmeter and dummy load to the VXR-5000 transmitter.
2. Connect your computer to the controller using the programming cable. Run the RI-300 Programming Software and open
your controller’s data file. If you do not have a data file for your controller, do a get data from the controller and save this
data as your controller’s data file.
3. In the programming software, pick “Repeater” then pick “Frequency Setup”.
4. Pick the “Force Transmitter On, 30 Seconds” button. Then adjust the “Transmit Power Level” slide bar while reading the
wattmeter for your high power setting (equal to or greater then 10 watts) and record this DAC value below.
5. Now adjust the “Transmit Power Level” slide bar while reading the wattmeter for a 10-watt low power setting and record
this DAC value below.
6. Return the “Transmit Power Level” slide bar to your high power setting, pick the “Send” button and then the “Start”
button. This will update the controller with your new high power setting.
7. Close the “Frequency Setup” window. Next, you will need to modify the transmitter power level macros.
TX High Power DAC Setting __________ at __________ watts (equal to or greater then 10 watts).
TX Low Power DAC Setting __________ at 10 watts.
Note: Vertex recommends NOT setting the transmitter power below 10 watts output or above 25 watts.
8. In the programming software,
pick “Commands” then pick
“Macro Data”. In the “Macro
Data” scroll box, select line
“050”, this is the VXR-5000
low power macro. Then pick
the “Edit Macro” button.
9. In the “Macro list data” scroll
box, double click the line with
“DAC Output 1 = 100”. You
will now see this information
in the “Edit System
Command” box. Change the
DAC value from 100 to the
low power value you recorded
above, “131n”, where “n”
equals the low power DAC
value.
