How To Program A Tad M10 Radio Online

Truckers used to love the TAD M8. It could be programmed for 99 channels (which was a lot in those days), was modifiable for front-panel programming (FPP), and they could have installed an easy and quick method for clearing their unlicensed channels if they got stopped at a multi-agency road block. A friend gave me a TAD M8 when he retired from trucking, so I dug out the programming info. There are two versions of the TAD M8, the original and the newer alphanumeric-display version. Basic programming is the same for both versions. My M8 is the original model, and my factory printed service manual is for the original model as well.

I am assuming you have located a used radio. First check to see if the radio is already set-up for FPP (as outlined in METHOD 2: PASS NUMBER METHOD, below). Press and hold the UP key, and while still holding the UP key, press and hold the PRG key. After holding both keys for about 2 seconds, if the display reads 0000 the FPP mod is already enabled.

METHOD 1: MANUAL METHOD a) Remove the top cover. B) Remove the tin shield cover from the control board by gently prying it off. C) You will see a screw near the centre of the control board, with a small foil circle or dot on the PCB located approximately 3/16' away from it. Turn the radio on and momentarily short between the screw and the dot. D) The display will read '01-000.0000' and the '1' will be flashing. You are now in the Dealer Programming mode and can proceed to the Dealer Programming Section to program the radio.

METHOD 2: PASS NUMBER METHOD This is the method that most will utilize, as the cover doesn't need to be removed every time you wish to alter the programming. A) Remove the top cover. B) Remove the tin shield cover from the control board by gently prying it off. C) Locate the pads marked JW203 and install a permanent jumper wire. D) Turn the radio on. The display will read either: (i) 'CH ALL CL' - this means the channels are all clear of information (ii) or it will display an existing channel already programmed in the radio. E) Press and hold the UP key and while still holding the UP key, press and hold the PRG key (always press the UP key first, as the pass number cannot be accessed from the User Programming Mode).

After holding both keys for about 2 seconds, the display will read: '0000' and the first '0' will be flashing. Note: At this point, the radio is looking to have a 4-digit code or pass number programmed into it. Once the pass number has been entered, the radio can be programmed without having to open it. The only way to change the pass number is to reset the radio, which clears the code AND completely wipes all of the programming. So don't forget the code (or leave it at 0000).

F) Select a 4-digit pass number. G) Enter your pass number by pressing the UP or DN key to arrive at the required number in the flashing digit location, and press the PRI key to change the digit that is flashing. H) Having selected and entered the 4-digit pass number, press the DISP key. I) Turn the radio off and replace the cover. J) From this point on, to enter the dealer programming mode, turn the radio on and follow steps (e) through (h).

K) Once the pass number is displayed, and the DISP key has been pressed, the display will read: '01-000.0000' and the '1' will be flashing. You are now in the Dealer Programming Mode and may proceed to the Dealer Programming Section to program the radio. DEALER PROGRAMMING WITH A GROUP EPROM With one exception, all the dealer programming parameters remain the same. The exception is that a pass number may be changed without have to erase off the channel information stored in the radio. To do this, the dealer enters the pass number as usual and presses the DISP button. At this time 'Clr PASS?' Is displayed.

To continue on as normal, press the DISP buttohn again. To change the pass number, press the PRI button, enter the new pass number, press the DISP button, then continuhe as normal. DEALER PROGRAMMING SECTION BASIC CONTROL OPERATION Pressing the DISP button enters the information, and steps through the dealer modes. Pressing the PRI button changes the flashing digit(s). Pressing UP or DN button changes the value of the flashing digit(s). In the TX Power and Priority Channel option modes, the PRI button changes the information. DEALER MODES When the radio is in the D PROG mode, a qualified person can program each channel with the following information: 1) Channel number 2) TX freq 3) RX freq 4) TX CTCSS tone 5) RX CTCSS tone 6) TX power output 7) Channel name (alpha models only) The following information effects all the channels in the radio and is programmed only once: 8) TX time-out timer 9) Priority channel option 10) Tone lockout (V532, V611, Alpha) These 10 groups of information are programmed sequentially in the following manner: 1.

HOW TO PROGRAM THE CHANNEL NUMBER 2) Enter the D PROG mode. The display will read: '01-000.0000' and the '1' will be flashing. B) Press the UP or DN key; the flashing digit will step or down one number each time you press the key.

Select the appropriate number for the channel desired (ie. The 6 of 36, etc.). C) Press the PRI key; the other channel digit will begin to flash. D) You can now advance this number by pressing the UP or DN key, and complete the desired channel number. HOW TO PROGRAM THE TX FREQUENCY a) Having selected the channel number, for example, ch-99, press the DISP key. The display will read '99-000.0000' and the first 3 '000' are flashing.

B) Press the UP or DN key and the flashing numbers will step up or down one MHz each time the key is pressed. Select the MHz portion of the frequency desired. C) Press the PRI key and the next '0' will be flashing. D) Press the UP or DN key and the flashing digit will change one number each time the key is pressed. Select the 'hundred thousand' portion of the frequency desired. E) Press the PRI key and the last three '000' will be flashing.

F) Press the UP or DN key and the numbers will change in 5 kHz steps (or 6.25 kHz steps if that option has been selected). Select the 'ten thousand and one thousand' portion of the frequency desired.

The display should now show the channel and the transmit frequency desired. If at this point you want to the change any part of the TX frequency, pressing the PRI key will step you through the frequency sequence again.

The display will read: '99-173.9950' and the '173' will be flashing. The channel number will be the same. If this channel has not been programmed before, the frequency will be the same as has been programmed into the TX frequency.

If this channel had a frequency programmed into it, that previous frequency will be displayed. (The process of changing this frequency is the same as the TX frequency.) b) Press the UP or DN key and the flashing numbers will step up or down one MHz each time the key is pressed. Select the MHz protion of the frequency desired. C) Press the PRI key and the next '0' will begin flashing.

HOW TO PROGRAM THE TRANSMITTER POWER OUTPUT a) Having programmed steps 1 through 5, press the DISP key and the display will read '99-HI'.

The channel number will be the same. B) Pressing the UP or DN key will change the selection.

The remainder of the programming is as follows: 7) Channel name (if alphanumeric display) 8) Time-out timer 9) Priority channel option 10) Busy-channel lockout (pressing PRI will toggle the display between LOC OFF and LOC On) The method for programming these steps is similar to the above programming steps. I'd have to locate my service manual to obtain the exact steps, but you should be able to figure it out. When you have completed your programming, turn the radio off, and then back on. You are now in the regular user mode. USER PROGRAMMING MANUALS The User Programming manuals are only for the user-programmable features, not the dealer-programmable features. Thanks to, for the following.pdf's.

That would be good of you. As it is now I soldered the pad next to the ground screw and hooked up a spring loaded on/off switch on the top cover.

Same as shorting out. Now when SW depressed and released goes straight to programming whereby the channel 01 starts flashing.

In one way I thought that might be the easiest if I wanted to bypass the pass code. Fujitsu Siemens Lifebook S7110 Drivers Free Download. I would still like to see your way, double check, which I assume is so you just hold the up key then the pro key, and get to the passcode, which I did to my other radio. I guess a person could go either way.
