INSTALLATION AND PROGRAMMING 2.1 GENERAL INFORMATION This section contains information concerning the installation and programming of BK Radio DPH Flex•Mode Series handheld VHF radios. 2.1.1 UNPACKING AND INSPECTING EQUIPMENT Exercise extreme care when unpacking the equipment. Make a visual inspection of the unit for evidence of damage incurred during shipment. If a claim for damage is to be made, save the shipping container to substantiate the claim. The claim should be promptly filed with the transportation company. It would be advisable to retain the container and packaging material after all equipment has been removed in the event that equipment storage or reshipment should become necessary. 2.1.2 BATTERY INSTALLATION A. BK Radio battery packs are available in a variety of sizes and types for special applications. Rechargeable battery packs can be charged separately or while attached to a radio. NOTE: For safety reasons, rechargeable battery packs are shipped uncharged or only partially charged. Therefore, a rechargeable battery pack should be properly charged before use. B. To install the battery, locate the center hub on the radio base and place it in the recess of the battery pack. Position the pack approximately at a 30° offset, seating two metal studs in their recess. Apply upward pressure to the pack while twisting the pack to its final (in line with the radio) position. The metal tab will click, locking the pack in position. C. To remove the battery pack, first turn the radio off. Then, as shown above, push up the metal tab on the side of the case while twisting the battery pack approximately 30° and remove it from the radio. NOTE: All information programmed into the radio is maintained even when the battery pack is removed. D. Periodically check the contacts on the battery pack for dirt that may prevent a good electrical contact with the charging base. WARNING: EXPLOSION HAZARD Do not dispose of a battery pack in fire. An explosion may occur. 2.1.3 ANTENNA INSTALLATION Insert the flexible helical-wound antenna into the radio's antenna connector and turn it clockwise until it is firmly seated. BK RADIO Page 2-1 Installation and Programming 2.2 DPH Series VHF Radio KEYBOARD PROGRAMMING You can program DPH radios in three different ways: A. With a computer, DPH programming software, and an LAA 0725 interface cable. That procedure is not described in this manual. Contact BK Radio for the programming cable, software, and manual required. B. A radio can be programmed with its keypad and a programming plug, LAA0701. That procedure is described in this section. C. You can transfer the programmed settings to another radio of the same frequency band by using a cloning cable.

To clone a DPH to/from a G or E Series radio, a special cloning cable must be used. See your dealer for details concerning cloning between D other series radios. Both units must be of the same frequency band. The radio transferring its programmed settings is referred to as a Master unit. The radio receiving the programmed settings is referred to as a Clone unit. Cloning can only be accomplished group by group. Settings for any group in the Master radio can be downloaded to any group in the Clone radio. To perform group cloning: 1. With the Master radio in normal operation mode, press the [#] key followed by number keys to select the group to be downloaded. 2. Set the Clone radio to the group that is to receive the download, using the same method as in step 1. 3. Connect the Master end of the cloning cable into the microphone connector of the Master radio. This is the cable end with the pushbutton Master switch. Put the Master radio into programming mode by holding down the Master switch and pressing the [FCN] key until the display shows ---ID. 5. Enter the correct Password Code. 6. Press the [FCN] key repeatedly to review the values in Channel 0. Make any required changes at this time. 7.

Normal radio operation will occur the next time the Clone radio is turned on. 11. If the download was not successful the Master radio will flash FAIL, followed by continuous beeps. Failure to download the Master program can be due to: A. Incorrect radio types. B. Improper connection. C. Failure to power up radio. NOTE: To stop FAIL mode, press the [CLR] key, turn off the radios, and start again at Step 1. Page 2-14 BK RADIO DPH Series VHF Radio Installation and Programming 2.3.1 SPECIAL CLONING INSTRUCTIONS It is possible to change Channel 0 values on the Master radio, hold them in a temporary memory, and download them to the Clone without actually entering them into the permanent memory of the Master radio. This is convenient for sequential identification numbers used to identify a series of portables in a radio system. Assuming that the frequencies, Channel Guard values, and other Ch 0 values are common for all radios in the system, but that the radio identification number should be unique to each radio, the following method would be used to clone additional radios for the system. 1. Program the Master radio with all frequencies, Channel Guard values, and Channel 0 values that will be common to all radios to be cloned. PRG 2. Advance the display to show the Master radio's ID number - for example, 100. ID 3. Press the [CLR] key; press 125. Do not press the [ENT] key. Now 125 is in temporary memory. FCN PRI ENT CLR 4. Press the [*] key, connect the cable to the radios and download to the Clone by pressing the [FCN] key. ID number 125 is now stored in permanent memory of the Clone. 5. After download, press the [CLR] key on the Master radio. Disconnect the Clone. The Master radio display will show that 125 is still being held in the temporary memory of the Master radio. 6. Press the [PRI] key. This will increment the ID number one digit to 126. (Note: any new number can be entered at this point by pressing the [CLR] key and using the digit keys to enter the new number.) 7. Press the [*] key. Connect the cable to the second Clone and download by pressing [FCN]. 8. Any number of radios can be coded with different or sequential ID numbers using this technique. The ID number in the permanent memory of the Master radio will remain unchanged as 100. 2.3.2 SCAN LIST CLONING When a Master radio downloads to a Clone, the Scan List is also transferred. See the appropriate operating instructions in Section 3 for selecting the scan list. 2.4 PROGRAMMING BY COMPUTER Programming a radio from a computer is not covered in this manual. Contact BK Radio for the programming cable, software, and manual required. BK RADIO Page 2-15 Installation and Programming 2.5 DPH Series VHF Radio TONE CODE GUARD VALUES The tone Code Guard system may be set for any frequency in the range of 67 to 255.9 Hz. However, since most systems adhere to the Electronic Industry Association (EIA) standards, tones should be selected from the following EIA list. In order to insure optimum performance, tone selection for use on the same radio frequency (RF) channel or adjacent channels in the same coverage area should be made from one of the Groups A, B, or C to the maximum degree possible. BK Radio guarantees optimum receiver performance only if tone frequencies below 220 Hz are chosen. GROUP A 67.0 (XZ) 77.0 (XB) 88.5 (YB) *100.0 (1Z) 107.2 (1B) 114.8 (2A) 123.0 (3Z) 131.8 (3B) 141.3 (4A) GROUP B *151.4 (5Z) 162.2 (5B) 173.8 (6A) 186.2 (7Z) 203.5 (M1) 218.1 (M3) 233.6 250.3 71.9 (XA) 82.5 (YZ) 94.8 (ZA) 103.5 (1A) 110.9 (2X) *118.8 (2B) 127.3 (3A) 136.5 (4Z) GROUP C 146.2 (4B) 156.7 (5A) 167.9 (6Z) *179.9 (6B) 192.8 (7A) 210.7 (M2) 225.7 (M4) 241.8 74.4 79.7 85.4 (YA) 91.5 (ZZ) * 50/60 Hz power distribution systems could cause falsing. The assignments in a given area shall be made from within one of the Groups: A, B, or C. 2.6 DIGITAL CODE GUARD VALUES Codes for the Digital Code Guard system may be chosen from the following list. This can be done during the code programming of the system. Usually systems using direct unit to unit transmission (systems without mobile relays, repeaters, remote control, etc) may use codes from the table. Systems with relays etc. may use code variations for system control and operational efficiency. The system operator or engineer should be consulted regarding the operational requirement on such systems. 023 025 026 031 032 043 047 051 054 Page 2-16 065 071 072 073 074 114 115 116 125 131 132 134 143 152 155 156 162 165 172 174 205 223 226 243 244 245 251 261 263 265 271 306 311 315 331 343 346 351 364 365 371 411 412 423 431 432 445 464 465 466 503 506 516 532 546 565 606 612 624 627 631 632 654 662 664 703 712 723 731 732 734 743 754 BK RADIO
