3.PC Mode
3-1. Preface
The TK-3202/3206 transceivers are programmed using a
personal computer, a programming interface (KPG-22) and
programming software (KPG-87D).
The programming software can be used with an IBM PC
or compatible. Figure 1 shows the setup of an IBM PC for
programming.
3-2. Connection procedure
1. Connect the TK-3202/3206 to the personal computer with
the interface cable.
2. When the POWER is switched on, user mode can be
entered immediately. When the PC sends a command,
the radio enters PC mode.
When data is transmitting from the transceiver, the red
LED lights.
When data is received by the transceiver, the green LED
lights.
Notes:
The data stored in the personal computer must match the
model type when it is written into the EEPROM.
Change the TK-3202/3206 to PC mode, then attach the
interface cable.
3-3. KPG-22 description
(PC programming interface cable: Option)
The KPG-22 is required to interface the TK-3202/3206 with
the computer. It has a circuit in its D-subconnector (25-pin)
case that converts the RS-232C logic level to the TTL level.
The KPG-22 connects the SP/MIC connector of the TK-3202/
3206 to the computer’s RS-232C serial port.
3-4. Programming software description
KPG-87D is the programming software for TK-3202/3206
supplied on a CD-ROM. This software runs under Windows
98, ME, Windows 2000 or XP on an IBM-PC or compatible
machine.
The data can be input to or read from TK-3202/3206 and
edited on the screen. The programmed or edited data can be
printed out. It is also possible to tune the transceiver.

4. Clone Mode
4-1. Outline
"Clone Mode" copies the transceiver data to another
transceiver.
The dealer can copy the transceiver data to another
transceiver even without the use of a personal computer.
4-2. Example
The transceiver can copy the programming data to one or
more transceivers via RF communication.
The clone master and clone slave/s must be in Clone mode.
4-3. Operation
1. To switch the clone slave/s to Clone mode, press and hold
the [PTT] and [side2] keys while turning the transceiver
power ON.
2. Wait for 2 seconds. The LED will light orange and the
transceiver will announce "Clone".
3. Select a channel table number using Side1(increment
channel table) and Side2(decrement channnel table) keys.
