Chapter 5 Radio Programming and Tuning
5.1 Introduction
This chapter provides an overview of the EP350 Series Customer Programming Software (CPS) and
the CP/EP/P Tuner as designed for use in a Windows
®
2000/XP/Vista environment. Both cover all the
functions of the traditional Radio Service Software (RSS) package.
They are both available in the CPS CDROM (PMVN4161_) and Entry Level Radio Tuner
CDROM (PMVN4165_).
5.2 CPS Programming Setup
Refer to online help files for the CPS Programming procedures.
(See Figure 5-5. CPS Programming Setup for CPS Programming Setup).
5.3 Radio-to-Radio Cloning
1. Cloning is the process of copying the content of one radio (source radio) into another radio
(destination radio). Radio content refers to system-type features such as frequency, squelch type
option, etc.
2. The cloning can be done only if all the following conditions are met:
a. The source radio's serial number cannot be blank.
b. The source radio and the destination radio must have the same model number.
c. The source radio and the destination radio must have an identical major codeplug
version.
3. Radio functionality inherent in one radio cannot be cloned to another radio that does not contain
the same functionality. Tuning and alignment information are not transferable and are not
affected by cloning.
