Cloning
The
FT-4XR/XE
includes a convenient “Clone” feature, which allows the memory and
configuration data from one transceiver to be transferred to another
FT-4XR/XE
. This
can be particularly useful when configuring a number of transceivers for a public service
operation. Here is the procedure for cloning data from one transceiver to another:
MIC Jack
MIC Jack
SCU-36 (optional)
1. Turn both transceivers
OFF
.
2. Connect the optional SCU-36 Cloning Cable between the MIC jacks of the two trans-
ceivers.
3. Press and hold the
MONI/T.CALL
switch and the PTT switch simultaneously, while
turning the transceiver ON.
•
Do this for both transceivers (the order of switch-on does not matter).
4. Press the [▲] or [▼] key on each transceiver to select “F6 : CLONE”, then press the
Function key momentarily.
•
When the Clone mode is successfully activated in this step, “CLONE” message
will appear on the displays of both transceivers.
5. Press the
PTT
switch on the source transceiver.
•
“- - TX - -” will appear on the source transceiver, and the data from this transceiver
will be transferred to the destination transceiver.
•
“- - RX - -” will appear on the destination transceiver.
•
When data transmission begins, the transmission data amount bar graph appears
on the LCD.
6. If the data transfer is successful, “CLONE” will appear on both displays.
7. Turn both transceivers off and disconnect the cloning cable.
When the “ERROR” appears on the LCD during data transfer, copying cannot be completed.
Check the clone cable connection, and redo the operation from the beginning.
