The configuration of the Electronic Keyer may be customized independently for the front panel KEY jack of the
FT-991. This permits utilization of Automatic Character Spacing (ACS), if desired. This allows the use of an
electronic keyer via the front jack and a straight key or computer-driven keying line via the rear panel jack.
1. Press the MENU(SETUP) button to engage the
Menu.
2. Rotate the MULTI knob to select Menu item "012
KEYER TYPE".
3. Press the [ SELECT ] button, and then rotate the
MULTI knob to set the keyer to the desired mode.
The available selections are:
The built-in Electronic Keyer is

BUG:
by the keyer, but dashes must be sent
manually.
ELEKEY-A: A code element ("Dot" or "Dash"
side) is transmitted upon releasing
both sides of the paddle.
ELEKEY-B: Releasing both sides of the paddle
transmits the currently generated
"Dash" side followed by "Dot" side
(or reverse order).
ELEKEY-Y: Pressing both sides of the paddle
transmits the currently generated
"Dash" side followed by "Dot" side
(or reverse order).
While transmitting the "Dash" side,
the first transmitted "Dot" side will
not be stored.
Same as "ELEKEY" except that the
ACS:
spacing between characters is pre-
cisely set by the keyer to be the same
length as a dash (three dots in length).
