Kenwood KPG-59D (TK-6110 TK-190)





A. INTRODUCTION
KPG-59D software is a tool for programming TK-6110 or TK-190 transceivers. Using this software, first enter programming data into the appropriate computer, then transfer the data to a transceiver. You can print out that data from a printer. You can also retrieve data from a transceiver to edit on the computer.

SUPPLIED ITEMS

Your programming software package includes the followings:

* 2 Floppy disks (3.5", 1.44 MB)
KPG-59D PROGRAMMING DISK (program files)

* Installation manual

APPLICABLE TRANSCEIVERS

This programming software supports the following transceivers:

TK-6110 (Low Band Mobile Transceiver)
TK-190 (Low Band Portable Transceiver)

HARDWARE/ SOFTWARE REQUIREMENTS

<>
This software is designed for use on an IBM PC, PS/2 and compatible computers with 10 Mbytes hard disk space, 32 Mbytes RAM, Super VGA monitor or better.



This software runs on the Windows®98, Windows®Me, Windows®2000, and Windows®XP operating systems.


The computer must have a serial communication port to connect with a transceiver. This port must be compatible with an IBM asynchronous communications adapter. You can select one port from COM1 to COM20 on the computer.


Use a KPG-36 (for portable) or a KPG-46 (for mobile) cable to connect the computer with the transceiver.


B. CONNECTING THE EQUIPMENT
1. Switch OFF the power to the computer.

2. Connect the 25-pin connector on the KPG-36/46 cable to one port from COM1 to COM20 on the computer. If the COM port has 9 pins, use a commercially available 9-pin/25-pin adapter.

3. Switch ON the power to the computer.

4. Switch OFF the power to the transceiver.

5. Connect the other end of the KPG-36/46 cable to the universal connector on the transceiver.


6. Switch ON the power to the transceiver.


C. Read Data from Radio:
This function reads all program data from the transceiver's flash memory.

1. When "Read Data from Radio" is selected, the " Read Data from Radio" window opens.
2. Select "[Read]" or "[Cancel]".

If the transceiver has been programmed with a Data Password, the "Input Password" window opens. Enter the correct password.



Note1:

If you enter an incorrect password, an error message appears. Press any key to enter the password again.

Note2:

If communication with the transceiver is not possible for any reason, the "Please check all connection and communication port setting." window opens. Confirm that the transceiver is correctly connected to the computer via a KPG-36 (TK-190) or KPG-46 (TK-6110) cable, then select "[Retry]".



D. Write Data to Radio:
This function writes data into the transceiver's flash memory.

1. When "Write Data to Radio" is selected, the " Write Data to Radio " window opens.

2. Select "[ Write]" or "[Cancel]". "[ Write]" writes data into the transceiver. "[Cancel]" aborts the write function. If "Optional Features/Data Password" is set, a warning message opens.

Note1:

Password protection prevents unauthorized reading of the transceiver program data. To read a password protected transceiver you must first enter the correct password.
(See Optional Features - Data Password for details)

Note2:

If communication with the transceiver is not possible for any reason, the "Please check all connection and communication port setting." window opens. Confirm that the transceiver is correctly connected to the computer via a KPG-36 (TK-190) or KPG-46 (TK-6110) cable, then select "[Retry]".
