Thank you for purchasing one of the OPC-478UC/
OPC-966U/OPC-1122U/OPC-1862/OPC-2338 /
OPC-2344 . The cloning cables are
cloning cable
designed to connect an Icom transceiver/receiver
and a PC for data cloning using Icom cloning soft-
ware.
Please read these instructions thoroughly before us-
ing the cloning cable.
PRECAUTIONS

pose the data cable to rain, snow or any liquids.
NEVER

DO NOT
OPC-1637. extend the USB cable. When
the cable longer than 1.5 m (4.9 ft) is used, a data
error may occur.
DO NOT
use harsh solvents such as benzine or alco-
hol when cleaning, as they will damage the cables.
Ensure that your PC supports USB port operation by
confirming the Universal Serial Bus controller is in the
PC's Device Manager.
Connect the cloning cable to the PC's USB port di-
rectly, or to a self-powered USB hub.
Approximately 20 mA of current is required for the
cloning cable. Insufficient current capacity of the USB
port can cause unstable cloning operation and a data
error.
D Cloning software compatibility
The USB type cloning cables, OPC-478UC/OPC-966U/
OPC-1122U, are almost the same as the RS-232C
type cloning cables, OPC-478/OPC-966/OPC-1122.
Therefore, most of the Icom cloning software which
require the RS-232C type cables can be used with
USB type cables.
IMPORTANT: Some Icom cloning software can only
select ports 1 to 4. When several peripheral equip-
ment, such as a printer, scanner and hard-disk drive
are connected to the USB port, the port number avail-
able for the cloning software may be port 5 or higher.
Therefore, you cannot choose the proper port number.
