115 Local oscillator of SDRX01B - usually CLKGEN01B with tuning controller PIC18F455001A can be set up from PC or can be programmed for fixed start up frequency. If fixed start up frequency is correctly saved the only step for tuning the LO is provide power trough USB cable from PC and then press the RESET button of tuning microcomputer module. After that the LO shout be tuned on saved start up frequency. This frequency can be changed by 115 Local oscillator of SDRX01B is a CLKGEN01B module with frequency tuning controller PIC18F4550v01A can be set up from PC or can be programmed for fixed start up frequency.
