USAlert NP40 Numeric Programmer

The USAlert NP40 Pager Programmer consists of a programming fixture labeled as UB-07, a standard USB cable, and NP40 programming software. The programming software is also used to program the USAlert Alpha 2 and NP35 pagers. Programming the NP40 from the three available pager types is determined by selecting the appropriate pager designation – J7 for the NP40, J8 for the NP35, and J25 for the Alpha 2.

Manufacturer: USAlert

The NP40 Programmer is initially setup by connecting the USB cable to the programming fixture and an available USB port on the computer.  The power LED on the fixture located next to the USB connection should turn green.  Install and run the latest version of the programming software.  If the J7 programming fixture is recognized by the programming software, the screen should display “J7 Programmer”.  To actually select the NP40 version of the programming software, the user must click on “J7 Programmer”.  The display will then change to “J7”.  Pressing the “Configure” button will bring up the programming screen and display “USB programmer connected” at the bottom left of the screen.  A “NO PAGER” indication is also displayed next to it.

The NP40 Pager has its programming connections in its battery compartment, so programming the pager requires the battery door be removed, no battery in the pager, and the pager positioned over the seven programming pins in the fixture.  The NP40 is then pressed down until the “Read” and “Write” buttons of the programming software become active.  The “NO PAGER” indication changes to “PAGER INSERTED”.  The pager must be held in place while performing a read or write action.
