NX-30056-2. Connection procedureConnect the transceiver to the personal computer usingthe interface cable (KPG-36/36A) and USB adapter (KCT-53U:when the interface cable is KPG-36A, the KCT-53U can beused.). (Connection is the same as in the PC Mode.)6-3. Programming1. Start up the firmware programming software (Fpro.exe(ver. 4.0 or later)). The Fpro. exe exists in the KPG-111Dinstalled holder.2. Set the communications speed (normally, 115200 bps)and communications port in the configuration item.3. Set the firmware to be updated by File name item.4. Press and hold the [ ] key while turning the transceiverpower ON. Then, the orange LED on the transceiverlights and “PROGRAM 115200” is displayed.5. Check the connection between the transceiver and thepersonal computer, and make sure that the transceiver isin the Program mode.6. Press “write” button in the window. When the trans-ceiver starts to receive data, the [LOADING] displaylights.7. If writing ends successfully, the checksum is calculatedand a result is displayed.8. If you want to continue programming other transceivers,repeat steps 4 to 7.Note:This mode cannot be entered if the Firmware Program-ming mode is set to Disable in the Programming soft-ware.6-4. Function1. If you press the [Side2] key while “PROGRAM 115200”is displayed, the display changes to “PROGRAM 19200”(The LED blinks green) to indicate that the write speedis low speed (19200 bps). If you press the [Side2] keyagain while “PROGRAM 19200” is displayed, the dis-play changes to “PROGRAM 38400” (The LED lightsred and orange alternatively). If you press the [Side2]key again while “PROGRAM 38400” is displayed, thedisplay changes to “PROGRAM 57600” (The LED blinksorange). If you press the [Side2] key again while “PRO-GRAM 57600” is displayed, the display returns to “PRO-GRAM 115200” (The LED lights orange).2.

If you press the [Side1] key again while thechecksum is displayed, “PROGRAM 115200” is redis-played.Note:Normally, write in the high-speed mode.7. Clone ModeProgramming data can be transferred from one trans-ceiver to another by connecting them via their external uni-versal connectors. The operation is as follows (the transmittransceiver is the source and the receive transceiver is atarget).The following data cannot be cloned.• Tuning data• Embedded message with password• Model name data• ESN (Electronic Serial Number) dataNotes:The following data can be cloned.• Fleet (own)/ID (own) for FleetSync• Unit ID (own) for NXDNKey guide on the Read authorization password input screen.• CONFRM ([ ] key): The password confirmation• DELETE ([ ] key): Delete the least digit from the currentpassword number (Press and hold to delete all passwordnumbers)• SELECT ([ ] key): Determine the least digit of the pass-word number1. Press and hold the [ ] key while turning the transceiverpower ON. If the Read authorization password is set tothe transceiver, the transceiver displays “CLONE LOCK”.If the password is not set, the transceiver displays“CLONE MODE”.2. When you enter the correct password, and “CLONEMODE” is displayed, the transceiver can be used as thecloning source. The following describes how to enterthe password.3.• How to enter the password using the keypad (K3, K4models only);If one of keys 0 to 9 is pressed while the “CLONELOCK” is displayed, the pressed number is displayed onthe LCD.Each press of the key shifts the display in order to theleft.When you enter the password and press the [ ] or [ ]key, “CLONE MODE” is displayed if the entered pass-word is correct. If the password is incorrect, “CLONELOCK” is redisplayed.• How to enter the password using the [ ] and [ ]keys (K, K2, K3, K4 models);If the [ ] / [ ] key is pressed while “CLONE LOCK” isdisplayed, the Read authorization password input screenis displayed.If the [ ] key or [ ] key is pressed while the Readauthorization password input screen is displayed, thenumber (0 to 9) blinks on the LCD. When you press the[ ] key, the currently selected number is determined.REALIGNMENT
