Pro 95 ?

[DS49]

My pro 95 is stuck in the clone mode. I tried the reset button and still stays in clone mode.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to correct this?


Any help would be very appreciated.

Thanks
Dan

Making the assumption you have nothing inserted in the PC/IF Port......cloning cable, headphones, aux speaker (it does happen)

Have you tryed both of the below options?

RESETTING THE SCANNER
1. Turn off the scanner, then turn it on again.
2. Insert a pointed object, such as a straightened paper clip, into the reset opening on the side of the scanner. Then gently press and release the reset button inside the opening. Pressing the reset button does not clear the scanner's memory.



INITIALIZING THE SCANNER
1. Turn off the scanner, then turn it on again. Welcome To Dual Trunking appears.
2. Press 0 then 1 while Welcome To Dual Trunking appears.
Initializing Please Wait. appears for about 2 seconds. Do not turn off the scanner until
the initialization is complete.When the initialization is complete M000 appears on the top line of the display. Bank 0 Ch 00 appears on the bottom line.
- This will wipe out your programmed info-

Re-Pro 95

Yes, I tried the reset button with the pin and it stays in clone mode. When you turn on the scanner it says clone mode. I can't read or write to it with the software.

Does anyone know if I can send this pro 95 back to radio shack for repair?

So you have NOTHING plugged into the PC/IF Port?

If you initialize it it should fix the problem, but it will erase all the stored data. If you already have backed up your info onto Win95, you can just re-upload it after the initialization and it will be fine. On the other hand, if you haven't backed up your data, you might have to initialize it and you will have to reenter all the programmed data.

Good Luck

I can't get it to Initialize at all. This Is The Message that stays on the screen...*CLONE MODE* UP TO SEND,REMOVE CABLE TO EXIT. I have no cable attached.

 

[Dubbin]

Hmm I don't know if this will help but try taking the batteries out and putting them back in.

Thank you all for your help. I tried everything with this 95. I will see if Radio Shack can repair this.

...This Is The Message that stays on the screen...*CLONE MODE* UP TO SEND,REMOVE CABLE TO EXIT...

What happens when you press "up" or "down"?

 

[DS49]

RE-Pro 95

When I press UP...the screen says confirm send data? 1=YES Press Other KEY FOR NO.

When I press Yes, The Scanner goes into clone mode Sending Data With Boxes rolling on the bottom. The only thing is I have no cable attached. This is strange.

Re-95

After the rolling boes stop it goes back to the cole mode again. It says take out cable to exit. No cable attached.

 

[Dubbin]

Were you pushing these buttons when you have the cable plugged in and running Win95? If so, you need to know that you DO NOT push any buttons on the radio when using Win95. Maybe try it again if thats what you were doing.

Re-95

No, I wasn't pushing any buttons with the cable in. I taken the cable and was trying to reset the radio.

I suspect a diode has failed on the GRE logic board. Cost to fix this problem will be $49.95 + 5.00 for the diode. At least Radio Shack will clean the contacts and make adjustements that "might" make your PRO95 more sensitive than the manufacture did.

Maybe the jack in the radio is stuck.
Try plugging in the cloning cable, and shorting the other end.
I just tried it on one of mine for a test, and it worked.

Re-PR 95

I already sent the pro 95 out to get fixed. Radio Shack said it would be around $50.00

It will be well worth it. I only paid $30.00 for it.


Wow!!! This Is A Great forum board. Everyone on here is nice and helpfull.


Thank you all.
