BK TECHNOLOGIES BKR0701 allows sharing of programmed frequencies and settings between BKR and KNG portable radios. With its simple operation, you can transfer information from a source radio (with desired frequencies) to a target radio of the same frequency range. The process involves selecting the source zone and target zone/group, initiating the cloning process, and receiving the information on the target radio. Cloning is possible for both active zones and picklists, ensuring a seamless transfer of your customized settings between compatible radios.

Operation
The BKR0701 Cloning Adaptor oers radio users the ability to share
programmed information between BKR portable and KNG portable
radios. For proper operation, the BKR0701 Cloning Adaptor must be
used in conjuction with the KAA0700 Cloning Cable.
For BKR to KNG cloning, one BKR0701 Cloning Adaptor and one
KAA0700 Cloning Cable are used as shown below:

KAA0700
For BKR to BKR cloning, one BKR0700 Cloning Adaptor should be used.
The Source radio is a radio programmed with the desired radio
frequencies and settings you wish to transfer to another radio of the
same frequency range.
In order to clone radio information the Source radio must have a menu
item programmed, via PC Radio Editor, to allow cloning. (Refer to the
“Menus/Controls” section of the radio editor.)
The radio receiving the program is referred to as the Target.
Target radios can be programmed to block incoming cloning information
on a zone by zone basis.

Source Radio
On the Source radio select the zone with the information to be cloned by
pressing the Zone button, or selecting “Zone Select” from the menu, then
entering the number of the desired zone.
On the Target radio select the Zone or Group to which the information is
to be sent.
Some zones may be blocked by PC programming to prevent them from
being overwritten. Only unlocked groups will accept incoming clones.

Start
Target radios display a message to indicate
receiving incoming information.
Target radios display “Destination Clone Start”
during the cloning process.
When the cloning process is successfully completed, the Target radio will
automatically shut down and reset.
NOTE: Upon reset the Target radio reverts to Zone 1.
Error Notications
If the targeted zone is blocked from cloning, or
the clone is not successful any other reason,
the Source radio will display “Source Clone
Error” and require radio power to be cycled.
If a targeted zone is blocked from cloning the
Target radio will display the “Destination Clone
Locked” message and requires radio power to
be cycled.

Target Radio
To clone to a BKR or KNG radio, it must be put in “Destination Clone
Mode.” The BKR and KNG radio can only receive “Active Zone” or
“Picklist” clone information.
On the target radio:
1. Select the Menu button.
2. Use the up/down buttons to select “Cloning”.
3. Press the [ENT] button.
4. Select “Enter Dest Clone”.
When the target radio is in “Destination
Clone Mode”, the source radio can initiate the
cloning of the “Active Zone” or “Picklist”.
When cloning has started, the target
radio will display “Destination Clone Start”
After a successful information transfer,
“Power o” is displayed and the radio will
restart.
The only cloning functions supported by the
KNG Target radio are “Active Zone” and
“Picklist”. All other functions are unsupported.

Cloneable Information
Cloning Information
The Source radio sends only information the Target radio requires.
Channel Capacity Considerations
When a BKR Source zone is programmed with less channels than a
Target radio, channels about the highest programmed Source channel
will be set to inactive.
A Target zone will assume the channel structure of the Source radio.
Example: Cloning from a BKR with a ve channel zone will enable only
ve channels in the Target radio.
BKR and KNG radios do not allow a receive frequency of 0. When a
Source radio channel has no programmed receive frequency, the Target
will substitute 136MHz.
Picklist Capable Target Radio Considerations
If picklist selections are assigned in the Source radio, the associated
picklist reference will be cloned to the Target radio. For example, if a
channel has a picklist selection of Tone 3, then a picklist reference of
3 will be sent to the Target radio and the Target radio will use the value
stored in the 3 position of the radio’s picklist. The Target radio’s picklists
will not be aected.

If the cloning process fails or the Target radio’s zone is blocked from
accepting an incoming clone, a fail message will appear on the Source
radio.
Failure of downloading can be due to:
• Zone programmed to block clone
• Improper connection
• Failure to turn on the Target radio
• Incompatible Target radio
