Complete (Full) Cloning
To perform a full clone, you will need System Keys for all Trunked systems
in the radio.
Follow the steps below for Full Cloning:
1. Press
F2
from the GET/SAVE MENU to read the radio codeplug to
be cloned, that is, the “source” codeplug. An archive file may be
used as the “source” codeplug.
2. Enter the serial number of the radio to be cloned in the Serial
Number field, or press
F2
to read the serial number from the
connected radio.
System Keys are required to change the serial number.
3. If required, enter the Trunking IDs for the new (target) radio.
Trunking System Keys (or FTR Keys) are required to clone Trunked
radios.
If MDC IDs are also used, they can be changed on the MDC
ID screen (
F3/F5/F3
).
4. Connect the target radio to the computer. Press
F8
to program the
source codeplug into the target radio. An archive file for the target
radio can also be created using the
F7
key.
Limited Cloning
A limited clone may be used when all the System Keys required to
perform a full clone are not available.
When a limited clone is performed,
all Trunking information which existed in the source radio will be deleted or
changed to default data. You will have to enter the Trunking information
again.
The steps below will guide you in performing a limited clone.
1. Press
F2
while in the GET/SAVE/PROGRAM MENU (
F3
) to read the
radio codeplug to be cloned, i.e., the “source” codeplug. An
archive file may be used as the “source” codeplug.
2. Press the LIMITED CLONE function key (
F4
) on the CLONE
RADIO screen.
At this point, all the Trunking data in the source
codeplug will be deleted or set to defaults. This includes all Trunking
system and Trunking personality data.
However, Zone/Channel,
Conventional, Phone List, Call list and Scan List data will be
preserved.
3. Enter the serial number of the radio to be cloned or press
F2
to
read the serial number from the connected radio.
The
F2
function
will not be allowed prior to step 2 unless System Keys are present.
At
this point, you will have a codeplug image for the target radio,
which contains the Conventional data and Radio wide data, from
the source radio and no Trunking data. You may operate on the
codeplug image in the same fashion as any other codeplug image.
It may be archived, edited or programmed into the target radio.
Normally you will proceed to step 4.
!
Caution
Do NOT program this image into the original radio
unless you want all the Trunking data to be deleted.
