Digital Modem (Tnc, Weatherfax, Etc.) Interfacing - Yaesu Mark-V FT-1000MP Operating Manual

D
IGITAL
The MARK-V FT-1000MP offers special features
for digital modes, such as a built-in digitally-synthesized
AFSK generator for RTTY and AMTOR terminal units,
IF bandwidth optimization and automatic display off-
sets, and an 18-ms transmit-to-receive turn-around
time.
Low-level Main Receiver audio output is provided
from the rear-panel RTTY and PKT jacks, and is unaf-
fected by front panel volume control settings. If you
prefer to use Sub Receiver audio for TNC input, switch
S3001 (located on the AF UNIT circuit board, inside
the transceiver, between the DVS-2 and PKT connec-
tors) can be moved from the MAIN to the SUB posi-
tion.
Audio level is 100 mV from both jacks. The RTTY
level is fixed; however, PKT audio level can be adjusted
by potentiometer VR3010. In many cases, it is easier
to perform level adjustments at the TNC.

The explosion of new digital modes of amateur com-
munication means that you will want to make connec-
tions to your TNC and/or computer as "standardized"
as possible. Generally, this will mean that you will want
to connect your transceiver in an "AFSK" environment.
On the MARK-V FT-1000MP, the PACKET jack is the
"AFSK" connection port, while the RTTY jack is an
"FSK" connection port. In the AFSK mode, the TNC or
computer generates the data signal as a set of audio
tones, while the FSK mode uses a closure to ground
(in the TNC or terminal unit) to cause the transceiver
to generate the "mark" and "space" tones.
