The software may require a few additional windows programs to update before installation, no additional cost just follow instructions and your computer may restart several times.
Once installed we suggest restarting your computer normally gets rid of any glitches you may experience or issues connecting radios.
We suggest shutting down other programs like Outlook etc as it can slow your computer down.

Kenwood Licence Key Activation/Deactivation Video
Your Licence key is created by kenwood and we will forward it on as soon a we receive it. The process normally takes 24 hours. Please see below video of how to activate your Kenwood Radio Licence software. Also a link to the latest License Management Client.
Connect the repeater to your network using a Network cable and connect your computer as well using a network cable, Power on the repeater then change the IP setting of your computer to the following:
Windows 11 - Network and Internet Settings - Ethernet - IP Assignment - Edit
IP Address: 192.168.0.2
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway: 192.168.0.1 or you can use 192.168.0.254
The repeater has a factory setting of 192.168.0.1 so to access it you need to be on the same IP range and subnet mask.
Then type 192.168.0.1 into your internet browser and you will now see the GUI inteface for the repeater.
Tips for programming
Read your radios before and after and you dont have to rewrite the codeplug from scratch in the CPS if you make a error.
Always keep a copy of the original blank code plug, when it comes to selling the radio later you can load it back to factory settings easily.
Each radio model has its own code plug so you can only Clone a TK2108 using a TK2108 code plug.
Read = Reads the Radio
Write = Sends the code plug to another radio which is the same model
