A Universal Programming Cable for Radios

The programming cable is intended to be used with a computer RS-232 port for programming radios and other devices. The main goal of this cable schematics is the invertion of signal levels. That is because the COM port's logic one is a low voltage level, logic zero is a high voltage level. Another goal is the correct voltage level transformation with regard to the real radio programming circuits. And nothing must get burnt...

KENWOOD connectors

GP-340 connector (draft by K. Bokhanov)

VT1, VT3, VT4 transistors may be BC847 or similar (i.e. BC547B, etc.), VT2 may be BC857 or similar (i.e. BC557B, etc.). Fast silicon diodes of any type will do, for example 1N4148 or LL4148 in MiniMELF case. LP2950 is replaceable with LM2951 with appropriate resistors, 78L05 is the worst choice due to it's own high current consumption. It may fail to work in some cases. Use 78L05 with an external power source.

Cable for RRxD and RTxD connections should be shielded. Multiwire cable with low mutual capacitance among wires is also applicable. Otherwise TxD to RxD interference will result in programming failure. It is important for some KENWOOD radios.

It is convenient to use an additional connector to attach particular radio jacks to the programming cable. DB9 is recommended as a highly reliable one.

Cable connection to KENWOOD portable radios has a specific feature. Radio sockets have prominent rubber rings, thus standard stereo jacks cannot be plugged in firmly. The jack flanges should be ground off till 5 mm in diameter. The jack cases should be cut accordingly.

TK-353 radios are put in the program mode by holding the side button below PTT and C button while powering the radio on. Hold the buttons until "--PC--" appears on its display. TK-250 enters programming mode by pressing Lamp and Lo buttons while turning the radio on.

In MOTOROLA GP300 connector use 2 Ampere diode if you intend to transmit with the cable connected or 1 Ampere diode otherwise. In MOTOROLA P040-P080 connector grind off the jack flange until the jack can be seated firmly. This connector does not need an external power supply if it is provided from the port by a programming software.

MOTOROLA mobile CM series radios are programmed through the rear accessory connector. The programming cable is not powered from the port. The power supply can be taken from the radio power supply or the accessory connector if available. The corresponding programming cable connector was designed by Vadim UA9MIR

MOTOROLA mobile CM series radios may be also programmed through the front mic socket. The programming cable is powered from the radio socket. The corresponding programming cable connector was designed and tested by Belu Daniel (Romania).

In MOTOROLA GP-340 connector the output voltage is limited to approximately 3 Volts. The specific jack is used, it is shown on the figure.

MOTOROLA MAG ONE radios are programmed with the specific connector with different transmit and receive data lines. To be firmly inserted in the socket, the 2.5 mm stereo jack tip should be ground off as shown in the photo. Jacks before and after the modification are shown. The photo is provided by Alexander 'Gulliver'.

VERTEX VXR-5000 and VXR-7000 programming software works improperly on modern computers with fast processors. Computers with i80486 are recommended by VERTEX, iCeleron 433 MHz processor may be also applicable.

An unusual connector is needed for KENWOOD TK-690/790/890 radios. The common data transmission and reception line is used.

The cable can be used as a CAT interface for tranceiver control. This cable connector includes separate Tx and Rx data lines and a power supply from the radio.

Alexander Nesterov has designed the TAIT T2000 series radio connector. The main idea is the additional level invertion using a CMOS logic IC. CD4093 is recommended because it has Schmitt trigger inputs. However, any CMOS invertor can be used. Unused IC inputs (not outputs !) should be grounded.

Alexander Nesterov has also designed the programmer schematics enhancements (VD8 and R13) and a specific connector to program MAXON SL500 radios. The programmer is used as a non-inverting buffer. In SL500 connector VD1 and VD2 diodes provide an extra protection of the radio. They can be omitted if desired.

Oleg EX8MLT has proposed HYT TC-500 radios connector. It is different from KENWOOD portables connector which is used for other HYT radios. Both jacks should be plugged in simultaneously.

Alexander Ivanov has designed a connector to ALTAVIA radios. These radios are designed and manufactured in Russia. The connector is similar to MOTOROLA P040/P080 portables connector but needs no external power supply.

Alexander UA9CEE has designed a connector to STANDARD GX-2000 radios. The radio should be programmed with slow computers (recommended processor rate 166 MHz or less) under MS DOS.

Valery UA6LPG has designed a connector to Russian Granit-202 radios. Programmer schematics is classic. The radio is put into programming mode by holding 'Phi' button while powering on.

Yuri US5IVZ has designed a connector to DRAGON SY-5430 programmable radios. It should be linked to the microphone connector.

Federico Menthe (Argentina) has modified the TAIT radios connector. Now it is capable to program T3000 series handheld radios.

Vladimir Vashchenko has designed a connector schematics for VERTEX VX-800, VX-4000, VX-6000, etc. These radios have a specific accessory connector.

Vladislav Bashaev has designed a connector schematics for ICOM IC-31G/41G.

Alexander 'Gulliver' has proposed the connector for the VECTOR VT-44 MILITARY portable LPD radio.

Roman RN3ADR with the author's participance has designed the connector for SIMOCO SRM-9000 series radios. Before programming the radio must be turned on. To do so push and hold SW1 button until HL1 LED switches on. After programming turn the radio off by holding the button until the LED switches off. Now you may disconnect the programming cable from the radio.

Valery UA9MRQ has proposed the connector for the russian GRANIT 2P-21 mobile radio.

Yury US5IVZ has proposed the connector for ALAN HM-200 radio.

Georgy RN3ZNL and Dmitry RN3ZQL have tested the programming cable attached to a computer via a COM - USB2.0 converter with the appropriate driver under Windows XP. In this case a DOS programming software seems to work correctly with the emulated serial port (various DOS softwares for MOTOROLA mobile radios were tested). Also the data exchange speed for DOS programs via the emulated port is notably higher then via the standard serial port under Windows XP. Modern high speed computers vere used in those tests.

A connection to devices with a non-standard processor supply voltage (cordless and cellular phones) requiers a special connector. A TxD key power is taken from the phone, so the input logic levels cannot exceed the processor supply voltage. For example SENAO SN-258 is attached by its test connector in this way: TxD - cont. 1, RxD - cont. 2, GND - cont. 3, Vbat - cont. 5. R1 resistor may be omitted because the phone RxD circuit has an inner 47 kOhm resistor to the ground.

The cellular phones connector can be used for applying AT-commands or firmware replacement. There are no hardware flow control circuits in the connector. The Siemens specific connector is shown. Use it for AT-commands with the switch turned off, for firmware downloading with the switch turned on. The Siemens phone socket pinout is from www.pinouts.ru. For more information please search specific cell phone sites.

The programming cable printed circuit board (97.2 kB) was designed by Valery UA6LPG with non-chip components. In order to print it save the GIF image to disk. Then open the GIF file with Adobe Photoshop (or any other editor) and change the image resolution to 600 dpi (look for at Image/Image size). Print it, it will be of the right size.

Please note that Rind resistor and a LED are used just to indicate the power supply voltage. You can omit R12, Rind and a LED, the circuit will work. Some words are in Russian, the most significant words are translated. The recommended value of Rind is 4.3 kOhm to minimize the current consumption, the LED will glow slightly.

The programming cable was tested with 336 device types, i.e.

The correctly assembled programming cable needs no adjustment. But... Let's see the troubleshooting technique if the cable does not work..

1. Check the assembly carefully. Check the component correspondence with the schematic diagram. Here are the most common errors in the programming cable assembly.

Sometimes the VT2 PNP transistor is replaced with an NPN transistor. Obviously it will not work.
Some people try to use any awailable transistors instead of denoted. In this case the work is not guaranteed.
Sometimes the prescribed voltage regulator is replaced with 78L05, even with 7805. In this case the cable can not be powered from the port reliably. Those regulator ICs should be used with the external power supply only with the appropriate C4 capacitance.
Some people try to use different resistor values. They think it will do. No, it will not.
VD1, VD2, VD5, VD6, VD8 diodes should be low power fast silicon ones. Power rectifier diodes and germanium diodes will not work.
Some guys think the more is the C4 capacitance the better. That is wrong. If the LP2950 is used C4 should be 1.0... 4.7 uF.

2. Make sure no wires are broken and all contacts are reliable, especially in a connection to the radio. Broken wires are the frequent reason of malfunction. Please note ! Connection to the radio must be reliable. Round stereo jacks must be plugged in firmly until stop. Their flanges may be ground off if needed. RJ-11 and RJ-45 connectors get oxidized easily. Socket contacts may be cleaned with an erasor scrap. Jack contacts may be cleaned with a thick needle.

3. Make sure the regulator output voltage is 5V +/- .1V. The wrong voltage may occur due to assembling defects or bad serial port extension pieces. Please note: the serial port may power up the circuit only while accessing the radio. Some software (especially made by Motorola) gives no power from the port, so external power is needed.

4. Make sure the software and operational system are correct. The most common mistake is running DOS programs under Windows. Port accessing technique under Windows is different, DOS programs access ports incorrectly. Use MS DOS or Windows'98 in DOS mode for such programs.

5. Make sure the radio is powered correctly, is turned on and functions properly. Uncareful trunking board removing or burning radio inner circuits with the bad programming cable makes the radio unprogrammable. The battery of a portable radio must be charged completely. A mobile radio must be powered with an appropriate power supply.

6. Consider the specific features of the radio being programmed. Most radios are put in programming (cloning) mode automatically. Some radios are put in programming (cloning) mode manually by pressing a specific set of buttons while turning on. Some radios need pressing specified buttons to start data upload or download. Some radios may be locked to prevent reading or writing data. Refer to radio manuals or search the web for information.
