CLONING

The VX-177includes a convenient “Clone” feature, which allows the memory and con- figuration data from one transceiver to be transferred to another VX-177. This can be particularly useful when configuring a number of transceivers for a public service opera- tion. Here is the procedure for Cloning one radio’s data to another:

1.Turn both radios off.

2.Connect the user-constructed cloning cable and two optional CT-91MicrophoneAdapt- ers (one on each end) between the MIC/SP jacks of the two radios.

3.Press and hold in the MONI switch (just below the PTT switch) while turning the radios on. Do this for both radios (the order of switch-on does not matter).

4. Rotate the DIAL knob on each radio to select to “F6 CLONE,” then press the [F]key momentarily.

5. The display will disappear for a moment, then the “CLONE” notation will appear on the displays of both radios when the Clone mode is successfully activated in this step.

6. On the Destination radio, press the MONI switch (“- - RX - - will appear on the LCD).

7. Press and hold in the PTT switch on the Source radio; “- - TX - - will appear on the Source radio, and the data from this radio will be transferred to the other radio.

8.If there is a problem during the cloning process, “ERROR” will be displayed. Check your cable connections and battery voltage,

and try again.

9.If the data transfer is successful, “CLONE” will reappear on both displays. Turn both radios off and disconnect the cloning cable.

You can then turn the radios back on, and begin normal opera- tion.
