Clone Mode - Kenwood TK-880 Service Manual

Notes :
• To start the Firmware Programmer from KPG-49D, the
FPRO path must be set up by KPG-49D setup.
• This mode cannot be entered if the Firmware program-
ming mode is set to Disable in the Programming soft-
ware (KPG-49D).
• When programming the firmware, it is recommend to
copy the data from the floppy disk to your hard disk be-
fore update the radio firmware.
Directly copying from the floppy disk to the radio may not
work because the access speed is too slow.
6-4. Function
1. If you press the [MON] switch while "PROG 57600" is
displayed, the checksum is displayed. If you press the
[MON] switch again while the checksum is displayed,
"PROG 57600" is redisplayed.
2. If you press the [D] switch while "PROG 57600" is dis-
played, the display changes to "PROG 19200" to indicate
that the write speed is low speed (19200 bps). If you
press the [D] switch again while "PROG 19200" is dis-
played, the display changes to "PROG 38400", and the
write speed becomes the middle speed (38400 bps). If
you press the [D] switch again while "PROG 38400" is
displayed, the display returns to "PROG 57600".
Note :
Normally, write in the high-speed mode.

7. Clone Mode

Programming data can be transferred from one radio to
another by connecting them via their modular microphone
jacks. The operation is as follows (the transmit radio is the
master and the receive radio is a slave).
1. Turn the master TK-880/880H power ON with the [C] key
held down. If the password is set to the TK-880/880H,
the TK-880/880H displays "CLONE LOCK". If the pass-
word is not set, the TK-880/880H displays "CLONE
MODE".
2. When "CLONE LOCK" is displayed, only the [System up/
down] key (Trunking format), the [Group up/down] key
(Conventional format) and [SCN], and [0] to [9] keys can
be accepted. When you enter the correct password, and
"CLONE MODE" is displayed, the TK-880/880H can be
used as the cloning master. The following describes how
to enter the password.
3. How to enter the password with the microphone keypad.
If you press a key while "CLONE LOCK" is displayed, the
number that was pressed is displayed on the TK-880/
880H. Each press of the key shifts the display in order to
the left. When you enter the password and press the
[SCN] key, "CLONE MODE" is displayed if the entered
password is correct. If the password is incorrect,
"CLONE LOCK" is redisplayed.
REALIGNMENT
How to enter the password with the [System up/down]
key (Trunking format), the [Group up/down] key (Conven-
tional format);
If the [System up/down] key (Trunking format), the
[Group up/down] key (Conventional format) is pressed
while "CLONE LOCK" is displayed, numbers (0 to 9) are
displayed flashing. When you press the [SCN] key, the
currently selected number is determined, and the display
shifts to the left. If you press the [SCN] key after entering
the password in this procedure, "CLONE MODE" is dis-
played if the entered password is correct. If the pass-
word is incorrect, "CLONE LOCK" is redisplayed.
4. Power on the slave TK-880/880H.
5. Connect the cloning cable (No. E30-3382-05) to the
modular microphone jacks 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, "PRO-
GRAM" is displayed. When cloning of data is completed,
the mater displays "END", and the slave automatically
operates in the User mode. The slave can then be oper-
ated 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 dis-
plays "END", the master displays "CLONE MODE".
Carry out the operation in step 4 to 6.
Note :
Only the same models can be cloned together.
