Pms - Yaesu FTDX9000MP Operation Manual

To limit scanning (and manual tuning) within a particular frequency range, you can use the Programmable Memory Scan-
ning (PMS) feature, which utilizes nine special-purpose memory pairs ("P-1L/P-1U" through "P-9L/P-9U"). The PMS
feature is especially useful in helping you to observe any operating sub-band limits which apply to your Amateur license
class.

1. Store the Lower and Upper tuning/scanning limit fre-
quencies into the memory pair "P1L" and "P1U," re-
spectively, or any other "L/U" pair of memories in the
special PMS memory area. See page 127 for details
regarding memory storage.
2. Press the [ V/M ] key to enter the Memory mode.
3. Press the [ MCH/GRP ] key momentarily.
When you press the [ MCH/GRP ] key, the Red LED
imbedded within the switch should light up, indicat-
ing that you are ready to choose a channel into which
to store the data.

If the Red LED imbedded in the [ MCH/GRP ] key does
not light up, check to be sure that the orange lamp to
the right of the [ CLAR/VFO-B ] knob is not illumi-
nated. It it is, press the [ A/B ] switch to make it go out,
then press the [ MCH/GRP ] key again.
4. Rotate the [ CLAR/VFO-B ] knob to select memory
channel "P1L" or "P1U."
5. Rotate the Main (VFO-A) receiver's [ SQL ] control
so that the background noise is just silenced.
6. Turn the [ MAIN Tuning Dial ] knob slightly (to acti-
vate memory tuning). Tuning and scanning are now
limited to the range within the P1L/P1U limits until
you press the [ V/M ] key to return to memory channel
or Main band (VFO-A) operation.
7. Press and hold in the microphone's [ UP ] or [ DOWN ]
key for 2 second to start scanning in the specified di-
rection.

If the scanner halts on an incoming signal, the
decimal point between the "MHz" and "kHz"
digits of the frequency display will blink.
If the incoming signal disappears, scanning will
resume in about five seconds.
On the SSB/CW and SSB-based Data modes,
the scanner will pause on a received signal, then
will step across the signal very slowly, giving
you time to stop the scan, if you like. In these
modes on the VFO, the scanner does not stop,
however.
If the scan has paused on a signal, pressing the
microphone's [ UP ] or [ DOWN ] key will cause
scanning to resume instantly.
If you rotate the [ MAIN Tuning Dial ] knob in
the opposite directin from the current scanning
direction (in other words, you rotate the dial to
the left when scanning towrd a higher fre-
quency), the direction of the scan will reverse.
If you press the microphone's PTT switch during scan-
ning, the scanner will halt at once. Pressing the PTT switch
during scanning will not cause transmission, however.
