Cloning - Vertex Standard VX-210AU Service Manual

Cloning

The VX-210A includes a convenient "Clone" feature,
which allows the programming data from one trans-
ceiver to be transferred to another VX-210A. Here is
the procedure for Cloning one radio's data to an-
other.
Note: When a cloning isn't made, you correct the fol-
lowing part using "CE45."
When a "Set-to-Set Clone" which is in the "Miscel-
laneous" menu is "Disabled," change this menu to
"Enabled."
1. Turn both transceivers off.
2. Remove the plastic cap and its two mounting
screws from the MIC/SP jack on the right side
of the transceiver. Do this for both transceivers.
3. Connect the optional CT-27 cloning cable be-
tween the MIC/SP jacks of the two transceivers.
4. Press and hold the PTT switch and ACC button
(just below the PTT switch) while turning the
transceiver on. Do this for both transceivers (the
order of the switch-on does not matter).
These procedures are designed to be used by the installing technician after the VTP-50 has been in-
stalled in the transceiver. To program a VX-210A's VTP-50 board, you will need the CT-42 program-
ming interface cable, the CE26 Programming diskette, and an IBM PC/AT or PS/2-compatible tyoe
computer.
To enter the Programming mode, use the following procedure:
1. Turn the transceiver off.
2. Turn on the transceiver while holding in the ACC button (just below the PTT switch).

5. On the Destination transceiver, press the ACC
button (LED indicator will glow green).
6. Now, on the source transceiver, Press the PTT
switch.Data will now be transferred to the Des-
tination transceiver from the source transceiv-
er (LED indicator will glow red).
7. If there is a problem during the cloning process,
LED indicator will blink red from source the
transceiver.
Check your cable connections and battery volt-
age, and try again.
8. If cloning is a successful, LED indicator will be
disappeared, turn the Destination transceiver
off. Now turn the source transceiver off.
9. Disconnect the CT-27. Replace the plastic cap
and its two mounting screws.
10. You can then turn the transceivers back on, and
begin normal operation.
