Before You Begin; Connecting Ac Power; Configuring Your Ft Dx 9000 Using The Menu - Yaesu FTDX-9000MP Operation Manual

1. Connecting AC Power

There are two power switches on this transceiver, one each on the rear and front panels. If the rear panel's Power switch is
not turned on, the front panel Power switch will not function.
Ì Push the Power switch on the
FPS-9000H to the I position
to apply power from the power
supply to the transceiver 's
OCXO (Reference Crystal Oven)
and to enable the front panel
power switch.
Ì Press and hold in the front panel
Power switch for two seconds to
turn the transceiver on.
2. Configuring Your FT
The FT 9000MP is configured, at the factory, with its various functions set up in a manner typical for most operation. Via
the "Menu" system, you may change these settings to match the way you want your transceiver to operate.
Menu programming is enabled by pressing the MNU (Menu) key momentarily. You may then rotate the Main Tuning
Dial to display the desired Menu item, in the menu list, on the LCD display. Each of the settings can be changed or
customized via the CLAR/VFO-B knob, as you like, in this mode.
Once you have made a change to the configuration of a
Menu item or items, you must press and hold in the
MNU (Menu) key for two seconds to save the new set-
tings and exit to normal operation.
If you wish to cancel a change to a Menu item or items,
just press the MNU key momentarily. If you do not press
and hold in the MNU key in for two seconds, any changes
you have made will not be saved.

9000MP Using the Menu
Note
The self-check function of the CPU inside the radio will
begin.
If the optional RF µ-Tuning Unit is installed, the µ-Tun-
ing circuitry will receive the data from the CPU, and it
will perform its own self-check, and will preset itself to
the proper settings for the current operating frequency.
While the µ-Tuning circuitry is obtaining the data, the drive
mechanism will move from one end of its range to the
other end (fast), and this will cause a temporary "motor"
noise that can be heard; this, does not represent any trouble
or problem.
When the radio is turned on for the first time, it takes about
50 seconds (from turning the radio on to completing the
self-check) until the radio becomes ready to use; how-
ever, from the next time you turn it on, it will take around
10 seconds until the transceiver is ready for full opera-
tion.
