Wireless Cloning
Cloning refers to taking the programming information from one radio and copying it to one or more radios
without the aid of a computer. Typically the radio sending the information is called the Master, while the
radios receiving the data are the Slave radios. This terminology is used below in the cloning process.
To prepare the Slave radio(s) for receiving the new program, they must be placed into the “CLONE (RX)”
mode. Start by holding the monitor button (round button on the side of the radio) and turning the radio on.
The display will show “Flash Bypass” then “CLONE (LINE)”. Release the monitor button.
Press the F1 button once and the radio will display “CLONE (RX) 1”. The “1” refers to the channel number
assigned to receive the data from the Master radio. This frequency is not however one of the programmed
channels in the radio. It is a predefined cloning frequency. There is probably no need to change this
channel but it can be changed by pressing the F1 and F3 buttons. Refer to the Owner’s Guide for specific
button function.
With the Slave radio(s) in the receive mode, activate them by a press of the F3 button. You will see
“READY RX CLONE”.
On the Master radio, press and hold the monitor button and turn the radio on. Release the button when the
display shows “CLONE (LINE)”. Press the F1 button twice. The display will show “CLONE (TX) 1”. Since
the slave radios have already been prepared, press the F3 button of the Master radio to begin cloning.
The Master radio will start at 0% and progress through to 100% completion. It will display “CLONE (TX)”
when finished. The slave radio(s) will display the progress in a % sign. When complete, they will restart and
display channel 1 of the new program. If the Master radio did not program the slave radio(s), they will
remain on “CLONE (RX)”. Repeat the process or just press the F3 button on the Master radio.
