Preparation before Programming

1. Computer System Requirements

Manufacture Programming Software Operating System: Windows 7, Windows 8

and Windows 10

CHIRP Programming Software Operating System: Windows 7\8\10,

Windows 2000, Mac OS, Linux

2. FTDI Programming Cable is Included

Come with an FTDI cable, it does not need to be installed with a driver. You can

just plug and play directly.

1) If your computer did not automatically install the driver, you will need to

update the driver to the latest driver

Download the latest FTDI driver at :https://ftdichip.com/drivers/vcp-drivers/

3. Software Download & Install

1) Turn on the computer, check if your computer system meets the

requirements.

2) Download the manufacture software on walkietalkiesoftware.com or CHIRP

software on https://chirp.danplanet.com/

3) Install the programming software

4. Connect your Walkie Talkie with Computer

1) Programming cable connects with the computer end.

2) Connect the other end of the cable with your walkie talkie.

3) When both ends have been connected, turn on your radio. Make sure it has

enough power during the programming procedure.

ERROR: Failed to Connect to the transceiver (Radio)

If it says it cannot connect to the radio - this means the cable is working but is not installed correctly

into the radio.

Items to Check:

Radio is turned on

The cable is FULLY inserted (it can be deceiving but there is a double click)

Hold the cable into the radio - some radios might not make contact without pressure

A way to cheat - dampen the pins of the cable before pushing it into the radio. This will give a

solid contact

5.How to choose your port?

1.Get into “Window Setting”, then search “Device Manager”.

2.Open “Device Manager”, and unfold Port (COM & LPT) to check the existing

port.

F8TD Manufacture Software Programming Process

1) Download and open the manufacture software. Click "Setting(S)→Port" and

then Confirm the port the same as the port viewed by Device Manager, then

click the ”OK” button.

2) Click the "Read" button, then click "Start" and ready to read the data from

your radio.( Make sure the radio is turned on)

3) You will come to the parameter page and adjust the limited parameters

(Channel, Band, RX Frequency, TX Frequency, CTCSS/DCS, Power, and

Wide/Narrow, PTT-ID, etc).
