Thank you for purchasing one of the OPC-478UC/ OPC-966U /OPC-1122U /OPC-1862/OPC-2338 / OPC-2344 CLONING CABLE. The cloning cables are designed to connect an Icom transceiver/receiver and a PC for data cloning using Icom cloning software.
Please read these instructions thoroughly before using the cloning cable.
PRECAUTIONS
CAUTION: USE ONLY INDOORS! NEVER expose the data cable to rain, snow or any liquids.
NEVER let metal, wire, or other objects touch any internal part of the connectors.
CAUTION: NEVER use a USB cable other than the
OPC-1637. DO NOT extend the USB cable. When the cable longer than 1.5 m (4.9 ft) is used, a data
error may occur.
DO NOT use harsh solvents such as benzine or alcohol when cleaning, as they will damage the cables.
Ensure that your PC supports USB port operation by conirming the Universal Serial Bus controller is in the PC’s Device Manager.
Connect the cloning cable to the PC’s USB port directly, or to a self-powered USB hub.
Approximately 20 mA of current is required for the cloning cable. Insuficient current capacity of the USB
port can cause unstable cloning operation and a data error.
D Cloning software compatibility
The USB type cloning cables, OPC-478UC/OPC-966U/ OPC-1122U, are almost the same as the RS-232C type cloning cables, OPC-478/OPC-966/OPC-1122. Therefore, most of the Icom cloning software which
require the RS-232C type cables can be used with
USB type cables.
IMPORTANT: Some Icom cloning software can only select ports 1 to 4. When several peripheral equipment, such as a printer, scanner and hard-disk drive are connected to the USB port, the port number avail-
able for the cloning software may be port 5 or higher.
Therefore, you cannot choose the proper port number.
