About the Programming Software
Functions of the TK-2180/ TK-3180/ TK-7180/ TK-7180H/ TK-8180/ TK-8180H can be configured using the KPG-96D software. Configuration data configured using KPG-96D can be written to the transceiver by connecting the TK-2180/ TK-3180/ TK-7180/ TK-7180H/ TK-8180/ TK-8180H to a PC using the KPG-36/ KPG-46 programming cable. In this manual, the description of each function in the Function Reference may have a corresponding reference in the Field Programming Reference. Therefore, you can configure the function by referring to the information also appearing in the Field Programming Reference.

Description

1.2 Description of MPT Trunking System

MPT stands for Ministry of Post and Telecommunication and MPT Trunking Systems utilize signaling compliant with MPT1327.
1200 bps FFSK is used as the signaling type in an MPT Trunking System. The control channel is duplex (allowing transmission and reception at the same time) and half duplex control channels and full duplex control channels are used for the transceiver. Dedicated type control channels and undedicated type control channels can be used. Communication takes place on the traffic channel.

1.3 Transmit and Receive Frequencies

This is a frequency pair used for transmitting and receiving data.

This configuration also extends the operating time of the TK-2180/ TK-3180 transceiver.
Transmit power of the transceiver can be configured for each channel in Conventional Mode by using KPG-96D. Transmit power can be configured for the transceiver in MPT Trunking System.
