Set to "CAT-3" in the setting menu [OPERATION SETTING] → [GENERAL] → [TUN/LIN PORT SELECT]. (Factory

setting: EXT-TUNER)

• Since the serial communication of this jack is 5V TTL level, it cannot be directly connected to the RS-232C

terminal of the PC.

• The connection cable must be prepared by yourself using the optional band data cable CT-58

(mini DIN 8-pin to DIN 8-pin).

• CAT communication cannot be used simultaneously with an external antenna tuner or linear amplifier.
