Before You Begin; Connecting Ac Power (Usa/Exp Version Only); (Usa/Exp Version Only) - Yaesu FT-2000 Operating Manual

C
ONNECTING
In the USA/EXP version, before connecting the AC power,
check the label on the rear panel which indicates the AC
mains voltage for which your transceiver is currently set.
If the voltage on this label does not match your AC mains
voltage, a switch on the internal power supply in the trans-
ceiver must be moved. This requires only a screwdriver
and is not difficult (see below), but you should make sure
the power supply is set up correctly before connecting
power. Always use a 10- Amp fuse in the fuse holder,
whether operating on 100 - 120 VAC or 200 - 240 VAC.
Do not use an improper fuse. If you have any doubts about
the procedure, contact your dealer for assistance.
AC Input Voltage Selection USA/EXP Version only
Make certain that all cables are disconnected from the
transceiver.
Remove the three screws from each side of the trans-
ceiver, and three screws from the top edge of the rear
panel. Slide the top cover toward to the rear about
1/2 inch (1 cm), then remove the top cover.
Locate the voltage selector switch on the power sup-
ply unit at the left side of the transceiver (just behind
the Main [ POWER ] switch).
Move the AC range switch to the "115" position for
operation from 100 - 120 VAC, or to the "230" posi-
tion for operation from 200 - 240 VAC.
Replace the top cover and its nine screws.
Always use the 10-Amp fuse in the fuse holder, whether
operating on 100 - 120 VAC or 200 - 240 VAC.
Change the voltage marking on the label on the rear
panel to match the new voltage setting.

ERSION ONLY
After making certain the AC voltage for which the trans-
ceiver is set matches your mains voltage, connect the AC
power cord to the 3-pin AC jack on the rear panel. Wait
until all other transceiver interconnections have been made
before connecting the other end of the power cord to the
wall outlet.
CAUTION
Permanent damage will result if improper AC
supply voltage is applied to the transceiver.
Your warranty does not cover damage caused by applica-
tion of improper supply voltage, or use of an improper
fuse.
