FT-65R/FT-65E Advance Manual34CloningThe FT-65R/E includes a convenient “Clone” feature, which allows the memory andconfiguration data from one transceiver to be transferred to another FT-65R/E. This canbe particularly useful when configuring a number of transceivers for a public serviceoperation. Here is the procedure for cloning data from one transceiver to another:1. Turn both transceivers OFF.2. Connect the optional SCU-36 Cloning Cable between the MIC jacks of the two trans-ceivers.MIC Jack MIC JackSCU-36 (optional)3. Press and hold the MONI/T.CALL key and the PTT switch simultaneously, while turn-ing the transceiver ON.Do this for both transceivers (the order of switch-on does not matter).4.

Press the PTT switch on the Source transceiver.• “- - TX - -” will appear on the Source transceiver, andthe data from this transceiver will be transferred tothe destination transceiver.• “- - RX - -” will appear on the destination transceiver.• The data from the source transceiver will be transferredto the destination transceiver.6. If there is an error during the cloning process, “CLONEERR” will be displayed. Check the cable connectionsand battery voltage, and try again.7. If the data transfer is successful, “CLONE OK” will appear on both displays.8. Turn both transceivers off and disconnect the cloning cable.
