The CPS allows the user to change settings, such as General, Audio, Menu, Channels, Scan List, Customised PL/DPL, Bluetooth (*) as well as select frequencies, PL/DPL codes on each channel. 4. After you change the settings, press “Write” on the toolbar to save the settings.
RADIO CLONING CLONING RADIO SETTINGS You can copy the CLP Series radio settings from one radio (the source) to a second radio using the CLP Series Single Unit Charger (SUC) Kit P/N IXPN4028 and CLP Series Cloning Cable Kit P/N HKKN4026 (optional accessory) or CLP Series Multi-Unit Charger (MUC) Kit P/N IXPN4029 (optional accessory). Note: The enhanced CLP software also uses the LED to indicate “pass” or “fail” status during cloning.
2. RADIO CLONING Note: Plug one side of the cloning cable microconnector to one Single Unit Charger. Plug the other end to the second Single Unit Charger. During the cloning process no power is being applied to the Single Unit Charger. The batteries cannot be charged. A data communication is being established between the two radios. 3. Turn ON the “Target Radio” and place it into one of the Single Unit Chargers. 4.
What to do if cloning fails The radio emits an audible “bonk” indicating that the cloning process has failed. In the event that cloning fails, try performing each of the following before trying to start the cloning process again. Make sure that the radio batteries on both radios are fully charged. 2. Verify the cloning cable connection on both Single Unit Chargers. 3. Make sure that the battery is engaged properly on to the radio. 4.
Cloning Radios using the CLP Series Multi-Unit Charger (MUC) Kit P/N IXPN4029 (optional accessory) RADIO CLONING Cloning the Radio through a Multi-Unit Charger 1. To put the source radio into clone mode, press and hold PTT and the “-” button while turning the radio ON until you hear the Cloning Tone and Double Blinking Yellow on the Smart Status Glow. 2.

For Bluetooth models, make sure the wired accessory is connected or the Bluetooth headset is paired before entering Advanced Radio Configuration Mode.
TROUBLESHOOTING TROUBLESHOOTING Symptom Try this No Power Recharge or replace Li-Ion battery. Extreme operating temperatures affect battery life. Refer to “About the Li-Ion Battery” Section on page 12. Hearing other noises or conversation on a channel Confirm Interference Eliminator Code is set. Frequency or Interference Eliminator Code may be in use. Change settings: either change frequencies or codes on all radios. Make sure radio is at the right frequency and code when transmitting.
Symptom Try this Steel and/or concrete structures, heavy foliage, buildings or vehicles decrease range. Check for clear line of sight to improve transmission. Change location of radio. To increase range and coverage, you can either reduce obstructions or increase power. UHF radios provide greater coverage in industrial and commercial buildings. Increasing power provides greater signal range and increased penetration through obstructions.
TROUBLESHOOTING Symptom Try this Heavy static or interference Radios are too close, they must be at least five feet apart. Radios are too far apart or obstacles are interfering with transmission. Low batteries Recharge or replace Li-Ion battery. Extreme operating temperatures affect battery life. Refer to “About the Li-Ion Battery” Section on page 12.
Symptom Try this Make sure the target Bluetooth headset is not connected to another device. Unable to connect to a Bluetooth headset Make sure the target Bluetooth headset is not connected to another device. Pairing with wrong Bluetooth headset Don’t perform pairing procedures next to other Bluetooth headset devices. CLP Bluetooth uses proximity pairing. Make sure the headset is placed next to the CLP radio.
USE AND CARE Use a soft damp cloth to clean the exterior. Do not immerse in water. Do not use alcohol or cleaning solutions. USE AND CARE If the portable is submerged in water... Turn OFF and remove batteries. English 30 Dry with soft cloth. Do not use until completely dry.
