MDC Data Cloning From the MAIN MENU, press F3, F5 and then F3 to access this screen.
The function keys on this screen will vary for Conventional and Trunked
ASTRO radios. It is used to copy codeplug information from one
Conventional radio to another. Conventional radios may be cloned
completely. Trunking radios may be cloned ONLY IF you have a System Key
for every Trunking system in the codeplug.
Programming Procedure 1. Use the READ SER NUM function to read the radio codeplug to be
cloned (the source codeplug). An archive file may also be used as
the source codeplug. To use an archive file as the source codeplug,
press F3 on the GET/SAVE/PROGRAM menu to display the GET
ARCHIVE screen, highlight the desired archive file and press F8.
2. Enter the serial number of the radio to be cloned in the Serial
Number field.
3. Change the Conventional IDs to those required for the target
radio.
4. Connect the target radio to the computer, press F2 to read the
target radio's serial number, and F8 to program the source
codeplug into the target radio.
Note: A radio and RIB must be properly connected to the computer
and power turned on before you attempt the READ function.
Note: The IDs for MDC-1200, DTMF, etc. MUST be changed
manually if you want to have unique IDs. You may do this by
accessing the CHANGE/VIEW MENU (F4) immediately after
cloning each radio.
