1. Clone Mode
Programming data can be transferred from one radio to
another by connecting them via their external universal
connectors. The operation is as follows (the transmit radio is
the master and the receive radio is a slave).
1. Turn the master TK-2140 power ON with the [C] key held
down. If the password is set to the TK-2140, the TK-2140
displays "CLONE LOCK". If the "Data Password" is not set,
the TK-2140 displays "CLONE MODE".
2. When "CLONE LOCK" is displayed, only the "tuning control
knob" and [S] key can be accepted. When you enter the
correct password, and "CLONE MODE" is displayed, the
TK-2140 can be used as the cloning master. The following
describes how to enter the password.
3. How to enter the password with the "tuning control knob";
If the "tuning control knob" is rotated while "CLONE LOCK"
is displayed, numbers (0 to 9) are displayed flashing. When
you press the [S] key, the currently selected number is
determined. If you press the [S] key after entering the
password in this procedure, "CLONE MODE" is displayed
if the entered password is correct. If the password is
incorrect, "CLONE LOCK" is redisplayed.
4. Power on the slave TK-2140.
5. Connect the cloning cable (No. E30-3325-05) to the
universal connectors on the master and slave.
6. Press the [S] key on the master while the master displays
"CLONE MODE". The data of the master is sent to the slave.
While the slave is receiving the data, "PROGRAM" is
displayed. When cloning of data is completed, the master
displays "END", and the slave automatically operates in
the User mode. The slave can then be operated by the
same program as the master.
7. The other slave can be continuously cloned. When the [S]
key on the master is pressed while the master displays
"END", the master displays "CLONE MODE". Carry out the
operation in step 4 to 6.
Note:
Only the same models can be cloned together.
2. Self Programming Mode
Write mode for frequency data and signalling etc. Mainly
used by the person maintaining the user equipment.
2-1. Enter to the self programming mode
Delete R351 (Figure 2) in the TX-RX unit and turn the power
switch on while pressing the [Side 2] key. When enter the self
programming mode, “SELF PROG” is displayed.
Note :
This mode (self programming mode) cannot be set when it
has been disabled with the FPU.
