FTH-2070 Programming manual
Version 1.6
********* NOTE ********
To date there are 2 versions of the FTH-2070 which have different
frequency ranges. The only sure way to determine the version of a
particular radio is to read the data in the radio first and examine the
COMMON DATA. The channel data can then be altered and the radio re-
programmed.
IF YOU PROGRAM THE RADIO WITH THE WRONG COMMON DATA CONFIGURATION, THE
RADIO WILL NOT WORK.
The frequency range for both versions is as follows:
Prior to lot 3: VHF: 150 - 170 MHz UHF: 450 - 470 MHz
Lot 3 and later: VHF: 134 - 174 MHz UHF: 400 - 500 MHz
The FTH-2070 is programmed using the 2070.EXE program. To start
the software from the DOS prompt, type:
C:> 2070
The main menu will appear with the following selections:

2. COMMON DATA
Common data should be set up first before programming any channel
data. CHANGING THE COMMON DATA SETTINGS WILL ERASE ALL CHANNEL DATA.
The following items can be altered under common data; use the <SPACE>
bar or <BACKSPACE> to toggle the settings for all items:
TX Time Out: The amount of time the user can key the radio continuous-
ly before the radio automatically unkeys. The range is 30-450 seconds
in 30 second increments.
Time Out Resume: The amount of penalty time that the user must wait
before re-keying the radio after the TOT has expired. The range is
0-150 seconds in 10 second increments.
Power Save: Power save reduces the amount of battery drain by turning
off the receiver and periodically checking for the presence of carrier.
If carrier is detected, the receiver will come back to life and remain
so until activity ceases. The sleep times are as follows: xx seconds
off, xx mSec on, xx seconds resume delay. Use the <SPACE> bar to
toggle this selection ON or OFF.
TX Lock Out: The radio can be inhibited from transmitting in the
presence of carrier (Busy Carrier Lock Out) or in the presence of
carrier with the wrong tone. Use
the <SPACE> bar to toggle this item.
Tone Opt: Use the <SPACE> bar to select the installed tone options.
The possible selections are: DPL, 2-Tone Dec, Burst, or None.

Use 0 - 9 to enter the desired channel frequency, and press
Enter. The frequency will be adjusted if it does not match
the Repeater channel step size (as set in Environ Data),
and will also appear in the Tx Freq field. You do not need
to enter all 8 digits: empty digits to the right are zero-
filled. Pressing [.] (period) after several digits forces
them to MHz. Press period first to change only kHz.
NOTE! Any entries or changes to this field will also occur
in the Tx Freq. field, so you may need to edit the TX
field seperately after making any changes here.
Arrow Keys: Change field (before or after editing

[SYSTEM TIMER SELECTIONS]
TIMER Three timer selections are available:
RPTR Hang-Time Timer, Time-Out Timer and Guard-Timer.
RPTR Hang-Time:
This is only used for repeater operation. Determines the
time delay the repeater will remain keyed after a stations
input signal (carrier) drops. Hang-Time duration is entered
in one-second increments (from 1-60 secs.) or disabled by
toggling the SPACE bar.
Time-Out Timer:
This can be set to limit the total transmission time the
repeater may remain keyed. The timer settings can be
individually configured for remote base or repeater
operation. Duration can be entered in 1-minute steps
(1-60 mins.) or disabled by the SPACE bar.
Guard Timer:
Assigns a penalty time after the Time-Out timer has expired
before an input signal will key the repeater
again.
Duration is entered in 10-second steps (from 10-secs.-360
secs.). Individual guard-time duration can be entered for
remote base and repeater operation. Must be set with Time-
Out Timer enabled.
:hc_misc
[MISC. SYSTEM SETTINGS]
SETUP
Five seperate operating modes can be configured from
this screen:
Mode:
select simplex/duplex operation (remote base/repeater),
when simplex mode is selected, repeater operation and
associated functions are disabled.
DC Low Power:
selectable normal/reduced TX output power during battery
power operation (low power extends battery life). Reduced
TX output power level is adjustable in the ALIGNMENT mode
HI TEMP Power Setting:
when enabled, operation at reduced TX output power level
is permitted when PA HI-TEMP warning is received. After
15 minutes of continued high-temperature operation, TX
output is disabled. Operation at normal power may resume
five minutes after the HI TEMP warning clears. When this
option is disabled,TX power is cut immediately (no
reduced power operation is possible) when a HI-TEMP alarm
is received. TX is enabled again (normal power) 5-minutes
after the HI TEMP alarm clears.
Beep Setting (enabled/disabled) With the Time-Out Timer
enabled, this beeper sounds 30 seconds before the transmit
time expires. High-pitch beeps are used in the repeater
mode, low-pitch beeps are for remote-base operation.
Hang Timer Mute: (noise out/mute) With Mute enabled, channel
noise is muted -20 dB for the duration of the carrier hang-
time after input signal drops, else Noise Out selection
permits incidental channel noise to be heard.

CE2 Programming Manual
Version 2.1
The CE2 (Clone/Editor 2) is used to program the FTH-x008 and
FTH-x009 series radios. The radio is connected to the computer by
using the FRB-2 programming interface box, or the VPL-1 and appro-
priate cable. To start the program, type the following at the DOS
prompt:
C:>CE2
The program will display the version number and frequency ranges
for different model of radio then goes to main channel data screen.
The main channel data screen will allow you to enter all of the
channel and tone data as well as set some of the programmable options
like CTCSS, Time Out Timer, etc. You can also access all of the other
functions from the main screen by pressing one of the 'F' keys:
F1: On-line help
F2: Common Data/Hardware Setup
F3: Load a file from disk
F4: Save a file to disk
F5: Read data from a radio
F6: Send data to a radio
F7: Print out configuration
F8: Return to DOS
F9: Change radio type/model
The program starts with the default setting for FTH-2008. To
change the radio type (VHF/UHF, x009 series) use the F9 key and select
the radio type. Changing types will erase any previous data on the
screen. When changing between x008 series radios and x009 series, the
data entry screens will change to reflect the different features
available for each radio.
Two information boxes appear at the top of the screen. The left
box contains information about the common data and radio configuration.
The box on the right contains key help information for data entry such
as which keys to use and the upper and lower limits for data.

5. PTT during scan; select either PAUSE or PAUSE & TX. If set to
pause, you will have to press PTT twice in order to transmit when
the radio has stopped on a busy channel. If set to PAUSE & TX,
pressing PTT wil transmit on the first press (if the radio has
already stopped on a busy channel. In either case, you will
have to press PTT twice in order to transmit if the radio has not
stopped scanning on a busy channel.
If during active scan the PTT is pressed and a priority channel is
tagged, the radio will revert to that channel and pause as above.
If no priority channel is selected, the radio will pause on any
random channel in the scan list.
6. TX Time Out; select either enabled or disabled.
7. TX Time Out Time; select either 30 Sec, 1 min, 2 min, or 3 min.
8. Time Out Resume is the amount of penalty time that must expire
before the user can transmit again if they have exceeded the TOT.
Select either 0, 6, 20, or 60 Sec.
9. TX Carrier Delay can be enabled or disabled; if enabled, the
CTCSS option is installed, releasing the PTT button will cause the
radio to continue to transmit for 400 mSec without tone to elimin-
ate the squelch tail on the receiving end.
