67FT-2900E O PERATING M ANUALThe FT-2900E includes a convenient “Clone” feature, which allows the memory and con-figuration data from one transceiver to be transferred to another FT-2900E. This can beparticularly 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 between the MIC jacks of the two radios.3. Press and hold in the [LOW(A/N)] key while turning the radios on. Do this for bothradios (the order of switch-on does not matter). “CLONECLONECLONECLONECLONE”will appear on the displays of both radios when the Clonemode is successfully activated in this step.4. On the Destination radio, press the [D/MR(MW)] key(“----- -WAIT-WAIT-WAIT-WAIT-WAIT----- -----” will appear on the LCD).5. Press the [MHz(SET)] key on the Source radio; “- - -- - -- - -- - -- - - -TX-TX-TX-TX-TX- - -- - -- - -- - -- - ------” will appear on the Source radio, and the data from thisradio will be transferred to the other radio.6. If there is a problem during the cloning process, “ERRORERRORERRORERRORERROR”will be displayed. Check your cable connections and bat-tery voltage, and try again.7. If the data transfer is successful, “CLONECLONECLONECLONECLONE” will appear on both displays.8. Press any key to exit to normal operation.9. Turn both radios off and disconnect the cloning cable.CLONING
