Computer Programming
This section assumes that the Baofeng software is installed on your PC.
Attaching the Programming Cable
Ensure that the radio is off before attaching the cable. To attach the cable, uncover the accessory port behind the rubber flap on
the right side of the radio body, align the connectors and push in firmly. Attach the USB connector to the computer and start the
programming software, then turn on the radio.
Baofeng Software
Note: When first opening up the Baofeng programming software, the language may default to Chinese. To change the language
to English, go to the second rightmost menu. This will open a list of available languages to select, including English.
When starting the Baofeng programming software, the Channel Information window will show. This is where channel
information for memory channels can be entered. If the Channel Information window doesn't appear automatically, it can be
shown by going to Edit -> Channel Information.
Before adding channels, go to Communication to select the port the cable is attached to. Next go to Program -> Read from Radio
and click Read to read in any existing channel information on the radio. This is an effective way to test the connection of the
programming cable. If the read is successful the LED on the radio will start flashing red indicating that the radio is transmitting
data to the computer.
