Execute the ADMS-15 Double-click the “FTM-200D ADMS-15 EXP” icon on the desktop of a comput- Click “Exit” in the “File” menu to close the ADMS-15. Be sure to read the transceiver information data before using ADMS-15 It is necessary to read the information from the transceiver first. If you do not read it, you will not be able to load the saved file or transfer the data to the transceiver, so please read the information from the transceiver by the following procedure before editing the data with ADMS-15.
Display examples First Screen This is the first screen to be displayed when starting the ADMS-15 software. Menu Bar Click the left mouse button on each Menu in the Menu bar to settings the import/export of the data file, get data form FTM-200DR/DE and send data to FTM-200DR/DE.
TAB Menu Bar Click the left mouse button on each TAB in the title bar (Memories, SKIP, PMS, VFO, etc) to display the frequency list of the desired memory channels, VFO and other preset transceiver settings. For more details, see “Setting the Template Items”. Set mode screen Basic setting items which are not related to memory channels can be configured from “Set Mode”.
Communications (Data communication with the FTM-200DR/DE) Get Data from SD card This command imports the settings data from the microSD memory card to the ADMS-15 PC program- mer, and creates a new data file. 1. Insert the microSD memory card with the saved data from FTM-200DR/DE to the computer.
Send Data to SD card Memories and settings from the ADMS-15 PC programmer may be transferred to the microSD memory card. Data cannot be sent to the microSD memory card until the information is read from the FTM-200D to the ADMS-15 PC programmer. See “Be sure to read the transceiver informa- tion data before using ADMS-15”...
Get Data from FTM-200D This command transfers the settings data of the FTM-200DR/DE to the ADMS-15 PC programmer. To communicate with the FTM-200DR/DE and create a new data file. Click the [Get Data from FTM-200D] parameter in the “Communications” menu. The “Get Data From FTM-200D” window will open. Connect the PC connection cableSCU-56 or SCU-20 between the FTM-200DR/DE and the computer.
• This menu item is grayed out and cannot be operated until the information is read from the FTM-200D into the ADMS-15 PC programmer. See “Be sure to read the transceiver infor- mation data before using ADMS-15” (Page 8) for more information.
To create a data file for the import of data, save the spreadsheet in the “CSV” comma separated file format. A spreadsheet may be easily created by exporting the template data in the “CSV” format using the ADMS-15 “Export” command. After the “CSV” data has been edited the spreadsheet may be imported back into the ADMS-15 PC programmer.
• Import with FT2D format To create a data file for the import of data, save the spreadsheet in the “CSV” comma separated file for- mat (FT2D or FT1XD/D). A spreadsheet may be easily created by exporting the template data in the “CSV” format using the ADMS-8 or ADMS-6 “Export”...
