■ Cloning
Cloning allows you to quickly and easily transfer the pro-
grammed contents from one transceiver to another trans-
ceiver; or, data from a PC to a transceiver using the optional
CS-T81
CLONING SOFTWARE .
D Transceiver-to-transceiver cloning
➀ Connect the OPC-474 CLONING CABLE with adapter plugs
to the [SP] jack of the master and slave transceivers.
• The master transceiver is used to send data to the slave trans-
ceiver.
➁ While pushing [MR], push [PWR]
to enter cloning mode (master
transceiver only—power on only for
slave transceiver).
•“CLONE” appears and the transceivers enter the clone standby
condition.
➂ Push [PTT] on the master trans-
ceiver.
•“CLOUT” appears in the master trans-
ceiver’s display and the S/RF indica-
tor shows that data is being transferred to the slave transceiver.
•“CL IN” appears automatically in the
slave transceiver’s display and the
S/RF indicator shows that data is
being received from the master trans-

ceiver.
• When cloning is finished, “CLONE” appears in the master trans-
ceiver’s display and “CL END” appears in the slave transceiver’s
display.
➃ When cloning is finished, turn power off, then on again to
return to normal operation.
D Cloning using a PC
Data can be cloned to and from a PC (IBM compatible) using
the optional CS-T81
CLONING SOFTWARE and the optional
OPC-478
CLONING CABLE .
D Cloning error
☞ NOTE:DO NOT push the [PTT] on
the slave transceiver during
cloning. This will cause a cloning
error.
When the display at right appears, a cloning error has oc-
curred.
In such a case, memory contents return to their default set-
tings and both transceivers automatically enter VFO mode.
Cloning must then be repeated.
