2.2 KEYBOARD PROGRAMMING
You can program DPH radios in three different ways:
A. With a computer, DPH programming software, and an LAA 0725 interface cable. That procedure
is not described in this manual. Contact BK Radio for the programming cable, software, and
manual required.
B. A radio can be programmed with its keypad and a programming plug, LAA0701. That procedure
is described in this section.
C. You can transfer the programmed settings to another radio of the same frequency band by using
a cloning cable. See "Cloning Radio Settings" in section 2.3.
2.2.1 ENTER PROGRAMMING MODE
Radios are shipped with a door covering the keypad and display. Before programming, remove the door
by removing the battery pack, engaging the door just below the speaker grill, and sliding the door
downward. Replace the battery pack.
Make sure the battery pack is charged.
1. Insert the programming plug into the side connector of the radio.
The push-button master switch will be on the top.
NOTE: The cloning cable can be used as a substitute for the
programming plug by inserting the end with the push-button
master switch into the side connector of the radio.
2. Select a channel group to be programmed (not necessary in 16-
channel radios). See "Channel Selection" in section 3.2.4.
3. Press and hold the master switch.
4. While holding the master switch, press and hold the [FCN] key.
After approximately three seconds the LCD will display - - - ID.
5. Release the [FCN] key and the master switch. The radio is now
in the password entry mode.
6. Enter the six-digit password code for the selected group. Without
the correct password code, you cannot proceed with
programming.
NOTE: New radios shipped from the factory are assigned the password
code 000000.
While entering the password code the display will not change,
but a beep will sound for each key pressed. If the password code
is entered incorrectly, the radio will reset to normal operation. Try
again, starting at step 2.
7. Press the [ENT] key to proceed to programming mode. The
display will change to PRG Ch 00.
NOTE: YOUR RADIO MAY HAVE BEEN SET UP TO BLOCK
KEYBOARD PROGRAMMING ACCESS TO SOME OR ALL
VARIABLES. CONTACT YOUR BK RADIO DEALER IF YOU
FEEL YOU NEED ACCESS TO THESE FIELDS.
