The Clone Express Window

The Clone Express feature offers the quickest method of cloning the CPS's currently open codeplug to an attached radio. The target radio's serial number and Radio IDs are read from the radio to the CPS’s codeplug, and then the entire codeplug with the serial number and IDs are written back to the radio. Warning: In order for Radio IDs to be retained in the target radio, prior to running Clone Express, the Conventional System’s (System Name and System Type) and / or Trunking System’s System Name must be a match between the CPS’s currently loaded codeplug and the target radio.

	The radio must first be connected to the computer through a selected USB port using the Programming Cable, with the desired codeplug image opened into the CPS. In addition, ensure that "USB Cable" is the selected Communication Method.
	If you wish to have the ability to modify Radio IDs during the cloning process, use the Clone Radio feature.

	Cloning is only possible between radios with identical Model Numbers.
	Cloning is not possible between a source radio that is Trunking-capable to a target radio that is Conventional only.
	Cloning is not possible between a source radio that is SmartZone Trunking-capable to a target radio that is SmartNet Trunking-capable only (in other words, when the Coverage Type of the target radio is set to "Disabled").
	When a target radio supports a certain Extended Feature, the Clone operation is allowed regardless of whether the source codeplug supports the same Feature or not. If the target radio does not support the Extended Feature, the Clone operation is only allowed when the source codeplug also does not support that Feature, OR when the source codeplug does support that Extended Feature, and the Extended Feature is not being used in the codeplug (the Used in Codeplug field is "No"). See also the Used in Codeplug per-feature Important Notes for additional Cloning warnings.
	Regarding the 12.5 kHz FCC Narrowbanding Mandate, Cloning is Not Possible When: The source radio / codeplug does not have the FCC Narrowbanding option enabled to a target radio that does have this option enabled, when any one of the following conditions is true: the source radio / codeplug has Allow Invalid Frequencies enabled, or the Primary Frequency Band or Secondary Frequency Band of the target radio is VHF, UHF1 or UHF2.
	Inhibited radios cannot be cloned.
	All source radio Trunking Systems must first have a valid Advanced (Hardware) Key selected in the Trunking System, System ID field.
	ADP (Advanced Digital Privacy) Keys (listed in the Selectable ADP Key Data table) are not Cloned to the target radio when the source codeplug is read from a radio. When a codeplug containing ADP Keys is read from a radio, the ADP Keys are not loaded into the CPS, which causes the Selectable ADP Key Data field(s) to appear in all asterisks (*). In this situation, the key data will not be cloned to a target radio. If sending ADP Key Data to the target radio is desired, the CPS-user must re-enter the appropriate ADP Keys into the CPS prior to initiating the Clone Radio process. Source codeplug ADP Key Data will overwrite the target radio’s ADP Key Data when present. However, when a codeplug file containing ADP Keys is opened into the CPS, the ADP Keys are loaded into the CPS, and are therefore able to be cloned to the target radio. Source codeplug ADP Key Data will overwrite the target radio’s ADP Key Data when present. ADP is selected in the Secure Operation field.
