cloning your scanner

You can clone all the frequencies, trunking talk groups, and
fl eet maps programmed in your PRO-2051 to another
PRO-2051 using an optional interface cable and software
(available at your local RadioShack or www.radioshack.com).

1. Make sure the scanners are turned off and then plug the

cable into each scanner’s PC/IF jack.

2. While you press and hold E on both scanners, turn on

both scanners.

3. Determine the scanner which has the frequency data that

you want to transfer. This one must be set up as the “First
Unit”, and the other must be set as the “Clone Unit”.

4. On the scanner that is the “Clone Unit”, press

e

or

d

to

select CLONE, then press HOLD/RESUME.

5. On the scanner that is the “First Unit”, press

e

or

d

to

select FirSt, then press HOLD/RESUME. The data transfer
begins from the First Unit to the Clone Unit.

During data transfer, SNDFirSt appears when a scanner is
sending data and REC CLONE appears when a scanner is
receiving data. When the data transfer is complete, donE
appears. If the data transfer is not successful, Error appears.
