Field Reprogramming of
HEL-STAR 6® GEN III+ & HEL-STAR F²®
The PIM-701 is a handheld device that allows military users to wirelessly re-program any or all of the four factory-supplied light-emitting functions of selected HEL-STAR 6® Gen III+ and HEL-STAR F2® models in the field.
Once the user has determined the new functions needed for the HEL-STAR® device, the PIM is programmed via a USB connection to a laptop.
The re-programming software along with detailed operating instructions are provided with the PIM and downloaded, one time, to the laptop through the USB interface. An easy-to-use graphical user interface allows the user to select desired new functions.
With the PIM programmed and disconnected from the laptop, it can be used remotely to re-program any number of HEL-STAR® devices with a simple activation, “hand-shake” and confirmation procedure.
The PIM is provided with two programming modes – “New Program” and “Default”. The green button transmits the stored “new” function programming the HEL-STAR® device, and the black “default” button restores the device to the original factory settings.
The PIM operates on a single replaceable CR123 cell and includes a removable rubber protective cover.
The Civilian PIM-702 is also available.
