<p>Hello Jim,<br>
first of all thank you very much for your answer.</p>
<p>I also thought that a model from Baofeng or similar might work.<br>
I already tested that.<br>
Unfortunately, after cloning, CHIRP only shows me the memory, i.e. the frequencies programmed in the device.<br>
Unfortunately, the "Settings" column on the left is not visible in CHIRP.</p>
<p>74</p>

<p>This is usually due to one or more settings being out-of-range. Attach your downloaded CHIRP Radio Images (*.img) file so the it can be determined which settings are invalid.</p>

<p>I once exported the saved settings from a Baofeng UV-5RE to the eSYNIC UV-5R using CHIRP.<br>
The message came that not everything could be transferred.</p>
<p>Here the (*.img) file of the eSYNIC UV-5R.</p>

<p>Hello Jim,</p>
<p>I loaded the image file you edited onto the eSYNIC device with CHIRP, restarted CHIRP and cloned it from the device.<br>
Lo and behold, all settings are now visible and changeable. :)</p>
<p>Thank you very much for your help.<br>
Super nice of you.</p>

<ul></ul><p>Hi Markus,</p>
<p>Would you look at menu 9 (TOT) of your radio and report back the range of choices for that particular setting? Typically these radios have a list of choices from 15 seconds to 600 seconds in steps of 15 seconds. I am wondering if your radio might be different.</p>
<p>Thank you in advance.<br>

<p>Hello Jim,<br>
The problem was that with the eSYNIC UV-5R in menu item 9 you have the option of setting TOT to off, which you cannot do with the BAOFENG UV-5R.<br>
If this is set to off, CHIRP will not fully recognize the device.</p>
<p>Warm greetings</p>

<p>That is exactly what I was thinking and trying to find out. Thanks.</p>
<p>Please try out the attached test driver module and let me know if this matches the way your radio works. Here is how you do it...</p>
<ol>
<li>Save the test driver module (<em>uv5r_tot off.py</em>) to convenient location on your computer.</li>
</ol>
<p>Note: Left-click <em>uv5r_tot off.py</em> link (right-click will not work). After the next page loads, left-click the "download" link at top of page.</p>
<ol>
<li>Load CHIRP.</li>
<li>Enable <em>Enable Developer Functions</em> in the <em>Help</em> menu.</li>
<li>Click <em>Load Module</em> selection in <em>File</em> menu.</li>
<li>Locate and load the file that was saved in step 1.</li>
</ol>
<p>CHIRP will now have a red background to indicate that it is running with and externally loaded driver module.</p>
<p>Note: Loading an external driver module does not permanently change your CHIRP installation. If you close CHIRP, you will have to load the test driver module again to be able to use its features.</p>
<p>Now test the Timeout Timer (TOT) setting changes to validate that it works as expected with your radio. Let me know how it goes.</p>

<p>Hello Jim,<br>
I downloaded the file you created.<br>
I had previously set TOT to off in the device.<br>
CHIRP also shows me TOT off there (see screenshot).<br>
I now leave TOT in the device at 600 and am therefore on the safe side to be able to use CHIRP normally with the eSYNIY UV-5R.<br>
The TOT setting of 600 seconds is more than sufficient. :)</p>
<p>Many greetings</p>
