TECHNICAL SUPPORT This directory should contain the following files: readme this file eproms.zip the files needed to burn your own V4.16 eproms for the RLC-2 and RLC-2a. The manual is the same as V4.14 Notes: To install the update you need to unzip eproms.zip and burn two 27C512 eproms, one with the voice data and one for the main program rom. After installing the new roms, power up the controller while holding down the initialization button on the circuit board. This will set everything up for factory defaults. You can then begin programming. You may not have to reinitialize the controller if you are upgrading from a relatively recent version (4.00 or later). eproms.zip contains: voice401.bin - Binary file for the voice rom rlc2a416.icm - RLC2a Binary file for main rom with Icom HF interface rlc2a416.kwd - RLC2a Binary file for main rom with Kenwood HF interface rlc2a416.yas - RLC2a Binary file for main rom with Yaesu HF interface rlc2_416.icm - RLC2 Binary file for main rom with Icom HF interface rlc2_416.kwd - RLC2 Binary file for main rom with Kenwood HF interface rlc2_416.yas - RLC2 Binary file for main rom with Yaesu HF interface Note: if your controller serial number is 150 or later, it is an RLC-2a rather than a RLC-2.
