overwrite the transceiver firmware when the operations as
instructed in Section 2.2.2 "How to Enter Each Mode" does not

transceiver failure.
(1) Prepare the followings:
• Transceiver (NX-3400)
• Battery jig
• Programming interface cable (KPG-36U or KPG-36X)
• DC Power supply
(2) Disassemble the transceiver to the condition shown in the
figure.
(3) Connect a transceiver, battery jig and programming
