2.2.7 Clone Mode
Programming data can be transferred from one transceiver to
another by connecting them via their modular microphone jacks.
The operation is as follows.
The following data cannot be cloned.
• Tuning data
• Embedded message with password
• ESN (Electronic Serial Number) data
Key guide on the Clone/ Front Panel Programming
Password input screen.
• Confirm ([ ] key): The password confirmation
• Delete ([ ] key): Delete the latest digit from the current
password number (Press and hold to delete all password
numbers)
• Select([ ] key): Determine the latest digit of the password
number.
(1) In the source transceiver, enter the clone mode by using
section “2.2.2 How to Enter Each Mode”. When the Clone/
Front Panel Programming Password is set to the
transceiver, "Input Password" is displayed on the LCD.
If the password is not set, the transceiver displays "CLONE
MODE".
(2) When you enter the correct password, “CLONE MODE” is
displayed, the transceiver can be used as the cloning
source. The following describes how to enter the
password.
(3) There are two methods to enter the password as follows.
- How to enter the password using the MIC keypad;
If one of the keys 0 to 9 is pressed while the “Input
Password” is displayed, the password number is
displayed on the LCD.
Each press of the key shifts the display in order to the
left.
When you enter the password and press [ ] or [*] key,
“CLONE MODE” displayed if the entered password is
correct. If password is incorrect, “Input Password” is
redisplayed.
- How to enter password using the [] and [] keys;
If the [] / [] key is pressed while “Input Password” is
displayed, the Clone/ Front Panel Programming
Password input screen is displayed.
If the [] or [] key is pressed while the clone/ Front
Panel Programming Password input screen is displayed,
the number (0 to 9) blinks on the LCD. When you press
the [ ] key, currently selected number is determined. If
you press the [ ] key after entering password in this
procedure, “CLONE MODE” is displayed if entered

2.3.1 Installation for the remote control system
The KCH-19, KCH-20R REMOTE CONTROL HEAD, and KCH-21R HANDHELD CONTROL HEAD can be connected to the
NX-5700HB with the KCT-71 or KCT-77 REMOTE CONTROL CABLE.
The figure below shows the configuration of the control head system and the setting of the DIP switch. The DIP switch settings are
very important for the proper operation of a Multi Control Head system. The DIP switches are used for number management of the
Control Heads in the system; they also determine termination for CAN (Controller Area Network) communications.

2.4 CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
2.4.1 Overview
The NX-5700HB is a VHF Analog FM & Digital Mobile transceiver designed to operate in the frequency range of 136 to 174MHz. The
unit consists of a receiver, a transmitter, a phase-locked loop (PLL) frequency synthesizer, a digital control unit, and a power supply
circuit.
2.4.2 Frequency Configuration
The receiver is a double-conversion super-heterodyne using first intermediate frequency (IF) of 49.95MHz and second IF of 2.25MHz.
Incoming signals from the antenna are mixed with the local signal from the VCO/PLL circuit to produce the first IF of 49.95MHz. This
is then mixed with the 47.7MHz second local oscillator output to produce the 2.25MHz second IF. The transmit signal frequency is
generated by the PLL and the TX VCO, and modulated by the signal from the Baseband Circuit. It is then amplified and fed to the
antenna.
Fig.1 Frequency configuration
2.4.3 Receiver System
2.4.3.1 RF Circuit
The receive signal from antenna switch (D305, D306, D307, D308, D309 and D310) is amplified by a RF amplifier (Q502) and passes
through the band-pass filter (L516, L517, L508, L509, L511 and L514) to remove unwanted signals. The signal is then fed to the 1st
mixer (IC500).
2.4.3.2 IF Circuit
The first IF signal is passed through a four-pole monolithic crystal filter (XF600) to reject adjacent channel signal. The filtered first IF
signal is amplified by the first IF amplifier (Q604 and Q603) and then applied to the IF system IC (IC600). The IF system IC provides
a second mixer, second PLL, AGC and A/D converter.
The second mixer mixes the first IF signal with the 47.7MHz of second local oscillator output and produces the second IF signal of
2.25MHz.
The second IF signal is then be fed into an A/D converter, generates the “I” and “Q” data. This data is in the form of SSI (Serial
Synchronous Interface), and sent to the MPU/DSP (IC706).
2.4.3.3 Audio Amplifier Circuit
Audio processing (high-pass filter, low-pass filter, de-emphasized and so on) at Analog FM mode and decoding at Digital mode are
processed by DSP. SSI signal from DSP is converted to audio signal at CODEC (IC902). The signal goes to connector for external
speaker (CN9) through the amplifier (IC903), electronic volume control (IC719), the amplifier (IC906), Changeover switch (IC912) and
audio amplifier (IC911).

2.4.4 Transmitter System
2.4.4.1 Audio Band Circuit
Refer to the “LEVEL DIAGRAM” in this manual. The signal from microphone is amplified and converted to digital signal by CODEC
(IC902). IC902 includes AGC function.
Digital signal is transferred to MPU/DSP (IC706) through SSI.
2.4.4.2 Baseband Circuit
Refer to the "LEVEL DIAGRAM" in this manual. The audio signal transferred from CODEC (IC902) is processed at MPU/DSP (IC706).
Voice signals of 300Hz or lower and frequencies of 3kHz or higher are cut off and an audio range 300Hz to 3kHz is extracted. The
audio signal is then pre-emphasized in FM mode and synthesized with the signals, such as CTCSS and DCS, as required, and is
transferred to PLL Frequency Synthesizer block. The DTMF and MDC baseband signals are also generated by MPU/DSP (IC706).
In Digital mode, the audio signal is converted to the 4-Level FSK baseband signal and is transferred to PLL Frequency Synthesizer
block.
The output level according to the transmit carrier is fine-adjusted according to each modulation method.
2.4.4.3 Drive and Final Amplifier
The signal from the TX PLL is amplified by pre-drive amplifier (IC301). The output of the pre-drive amplifier is amplified by the drive
amplifier (Q301) and RF Power module (IC302 and IC303) to 110W (50W when the power is middle and 25W when the power is low).
IC301 is MMIC.Q301 is MOS FET. The 2 RF Power modules are in parallel, summing the output power. The output of the final amplifier
is then passed through the coupler, antenna switch (D305, D306, D307, D308, D309 and D310), harmonic filter (LPF) and applied to
the antenna terminal.
2.4.4.4 APC Circuit
The Automatic transmission power control circuit (APC) controls the transmitter output in adjusted value by monitoring it with a coupler.
RF detection and comparison functions are included in the power-control IC (IC306).
The power control IC output is given as a drive source of the RF power module’s gate (IC302 and IC303), and completes APC
feedback loop.
When a normal antenna load is connected, the Forward RF Power is referenced by the coupler and sent to power-control IC (IC306).
Forward RF Power is converted into DC voltage at IC306 and is compared with the APC1.
The output voltage goes through DC amp (IC305 2/2) to Drive amp (Q301) and RF Power module (IC302 and IC303).
The voltage controls the gate bias1 voltage of Q301, IC302 and IC303, and keeps transmission output stable. SPC controls the gate
bias2 voltage of IC302 and IC303 too.
