2. Plug the FLA07 Programming Cable Into the Computer
Plug the USB end of the FLA07 programming cable into the USB port on your computer. Your computer will make a tone letting you know the computer recognizing the USB.
3. Plug the Programming Cable into Your Litecom Headset
Your headset must be powered OFF. Plug the other end of the FLA07 programming cable into the headset port found on the bottom of the right ear cup. The holes in the cable should align with the prongs inside the port.
4. Put the Litecom Headset into Programming Mode
Hold the power button and volume up (+) button simultaneously for about 3 seconds. The LED will double flash when in programming mode.
On the PELTOR Service Tool, you’ll see connected at the bottom showing the headset is successfully connected.
5. How to Program Frequencies onto the Headset
Open the program on your computer if not already open, go to configuration in the top left corner. You can either start a new file or upload a file that’s already been created by going to open device configuration in new tab. This will open up your file explorer where you can upload the file.
In the configuration tab, on the side menu, go to two-way radio > channels.
You’ll need to type in your transmit frequencies and receive frequencies as well as receive subchannel and an analog subchannel.
Once complete, click save.
6. Write Configuration to Device
After you input the frequencies and subchannels, click on write configuration to device button.
The software will then download the frequencies onto your headset. A pop up should appear to let you know it was successful.
Repeat this step for each headset you want to program. Make sure the headset is plugged into the computer before writing.
