The main grid displays rows for channels 1 through 16 (or 128, depending on the model). Each column represents a parameter:
| Column | Meaning | Example | |--------|---------|---------| | RX Freq | Receive frequency (MHz) | 462.5625 | | TX Freq | Transmit frequency | Same as RX (simplex) or different (repeater) | | CTCSS/DCS Dec | Receive tone (privacy code) | 67.0 Hz or D023N | | CTCSS/DCS Enc | Transmit tone | Same as Decode | | Power | Hi (5W) or Low (1W) | High | | Scan | Add to scan list? | Yes/No | | Busy Lock | Prevent transmit on busy channel | Off (usually) | weierwei vev3288s programming software
Practical Example: To set Channel 1 to GMRS/FRS channel 1 with no privacy code: The main grid displays rows for channels 1
To use a repeater (offset): Set a different TX Freq (e.g., RX = 462.550, TX = 467.550). To use a repeater (offset): Set a different TX Freq (e
Using the Weierwei VEV3288S programming software gives you power, but with power comes responsibility:
Connect the programming cable to the VEV3288S’s side port (two-pin connector). Ensure the radio is powered ON. A successful driver installation will show the COM port without errors in Device Manager.
