DX80 programming software?
« on: January 02, 2018, 02:58:28 PM »
Does anybody have it?  We have a site with a dead DX-80 in PA that Don Baker is working on.  He needs to initialize it and re-load the database.  I looked on Vertical's FTP site and there are several items there in the DX-80 folder, but I'm not sure which one is correct.  If you have it, will you please forward it to Don?  Many  thanks!

I'm sure I have it and will check in the shop tomorrow.  I should have a couple of new CD's and books which are about to go in the trash.  Don can have all of it.  There are a couple of different versions and well as a different program for the DX80 voicemail.

I have a couple of the original install disks which all the programms and documentation.   If you PM me the address I can send you an original CD.

This has the programming software for the DX80 as well as the voicemail.   This is ver. 1.6 for A33.  I should have the earlier version as well.

I downloaded the F44 version off of the Vertical FTP site.

Chips on the main board say U16 A33 and U14 A33


Will the software work?

Thanks.

The system is acting Wonky.  I was told to back it up, default it and restore it.   There is a 3.5' Floppy there that says backup, but i have to dig up a floppy drive to use it.

Usually when they start acting up like this it is either a surge induced database corruption or more likely the mother board is fixing to give up the ghost. Hopefully a database reprogram will fix the issue but the DX80 line is getting to be a fairly dated Tecom product.
