3-1. Preface
The TK-2212/2217 transceivers are programmed using a
personal computer, a programming interface (KPG-22) and
programming software (KPG-100D).
The programming software can be used with an IBM PC
or compatible. Figure 1 shows the setup of an IBM PC for
programming.
3-2. Connection procedure
1. Connect the TK-2212/2217 to the personal computer with
the interface cable.
2. When the POWER is switched on, user mode can be
entered immediately. When the PC sends a command,
the transceiver enters PC mode. In the PC mode,
"PROGRAM" is displayed on the LCD.
When data is transmitting from the transceiver, the red
LED lights.
When data is received by the transceiver, the green LED
lights.
Notes:
• The data stored in the personal computer must match the
model type when it is written into the EEPROM.
• Change the TK-2212/2217 to PC mode, then attach the
interface cable.
3-3. KPG-22 description
(PC programming interface cable: Option)
The KPG-22 is required to interface the TK-2212/2217 with
the computer. It has a circuit in its D-subconnector (25-pin)
case that converts the RS-232C logic level to the TTL level.
The KPG-22 connects the SP/MIC connector of the TK-2212/
2217 to the computer’s RS-232C serial port.
3-4. Programming software description
KPG-100D is the programming software for TK-2212/2217
supplied on a CD-ROM. This software runs under Windows
98, ME, Windows 2000 or XP on an IBM-PC or compatible
machine.
The data can be input to or read from TK-2212/2217 and
edited on the screen. The programmed or edited data can be
printed out. It is also possible to tune the transceiver.

4. Clone Mode
4-1. Outline
"Clone Mode" copies the transceiver data to another
transceiver.
The dealer can copy the transceiver data to another
transceiver even without the use of a personal computer.
4-2. Example
The transceiver can copy the programming data to one or
more transceivers via RF communication.
The clone master and clone slave/s must be in Clone mode.
Self programming mode
