CLONING

7
Cloning allows you to quickly and easily transfer the
programmed data from one transceiver to another
transceiver, or, data from a PC to a transceiver, using the
optional CS-A24 (#02)
cloning
software
.
Transceiver to transceiver cloning
ï
q
Connect the OPC-474
cloning
cable
with adapter plugs
to the [SP/MIC] jack of the master and sub transceivers.
• The master transceiver is used to send data to the sub trans
-
ceiver.
w
While holding down [MR•
MW
],
push [PWR] to enter the clon-
ing mode (to operate the master
transceiver only).
• “CLONE” appears and the transceiv
-
ers enter the clone standby condition.
e
Push [MR•
MW
] on the master
transceiver.
• “CL-OUT” appears in the master
transceiver’s display.
• “COURSE DEVIATION NEEDLES”
shows that cloning is taking place
• “CL-IN” appears automatically in the
sub transceiver’s display.
r
When cloning is finished, turn power OFF, then ON again
to exit the cloning mode.
NOTE: DO NOT
transfer the data from a IC-A24E to
a IC-A6E, when the data contains the NAV band data. In
such case, a cloning error may occur.
Cloning using PC
ï
Data can be cloned to and from a PC (Microsoft
®
Windows
®
XP) using the optional CS-A24 (#02)
cloning
software
and
the optional OPC-478 (RS-232C type) or OPC-478UC (USB
type)
cloning
cable
. Consult the CS-A24 (#02)
cloning
software
HELP file for details.
Cloning error
ï
NOTE: DO NOT
push [ENT] on the sub transceiver during
cloning. This will cause a cloning error.
When the display at right appears, a clon-
ing error has occurred.
In this case, both transceivers automatically return to the
clone standby condition and cloning must be repeated.
