Trimble PDLCONF User Version 4.0

Trimble PDLCONF User Version by Pacific Crest Corporation

PDLCONF (User Version) is a PC-based configuration utility for Pacific Crest/Trimble PDL-series UHF data radios commonly used in GNSS/RTK surveying, construction, and machine control. It provides a straightforward, menu-driven way to set up, manage, and troubleshoot radios in the field or shop, exposing the parameters end users need while keeping service-only settings protected.

Key capabilities

• Connect via a standard serial (COM) port to supported base, rover, and repeater radios
• Read device details such as model, serial number, and firmware revision
• Configure RF parameters, including operating frequency/channel, channel spacing, occupied bandwidth, transmit power level, and over‑the‑air protocol/mode
• Set serial interface options (baud rate, parity, flow control) for host equipment integration
• Save, load, and clone configuration profiles to streamline deployment across multiple radios
• Perform basic diagnostics and status checks to aid link setup and troubleshooting

Typical use cases

• Preparing base and rover radios for RTK operation
• Cloning known-good configurations to additional units
• Verifying radio settings and connectivity during field commissioning

Notes

• The User Version focuses on end‑user configuration; service, calibration, and other dealer‑level functions are intentionally restricted.
• Use only frequencies, power levels, and channel plans permitted in your region.
• Requires a Windows PC with a serial port or USB‑to‑serial adapter. Compatibility includes most Pacific Crest PDL‑family radios and Trimble equipment with integrated PDL modems.
