The USAlert WatchDog LT Programmer consists of a programming fixture, a serial communications cable, a USB communications cable, a USB to Serial Adapter, a large programming CD and a small computer drivers CD. Both WatchDog LT and WatchDog Voice Pagers use the same programming hardware and latest version of programming software, so only one installation is required. In addition to the CD’s included in the programming kit, the software files required for the installation can also be downloaded from the WatchDog LT Documents and Downloads webpage.
The WatchDog LT programming fixture uses a DB9 serial connector for data communications. Connecting the fixture to your computer can be accomplished in either of two ways, serially or by USB. Ensure that your Serial and USB ports are operational by checking the Device Manager in your computer’s Control Panel for any issues.
