CLONING V-SCANNER DATA
Your PRO-2096 Digital Scanner supports cloning of both working memory and V-Scanner memory to and
from other PRO-2096 and PRO-96 scanners or PC application software. This section describes the
process of cloning V-Scanner memory between two radios.
Two types of V-Scanner memory clone are supported. Full Clone transfers all V-Scanner folders from one
PRO-2096 (the “source” radio) to a second PRO-2096 or PRO-96 (the destination” radio). Selective Clone
transfers selected V-Scanner folders from a “local” controlling radio to a “remote” slave radio.
CAUTION: The Full Clone feature should be used with caution it overwrites all V-Scanner memory in the
destination radio with the contents of the V-Scanner memory in the source radio. This operation cannot be
undone.
