Introduction
The ADMS-16 PC programming software uses a Personal Computer to quickly enter and save the FTM-
500DR/DE memory channel frequencies and data. Also, the many menu settings may be adapted for
individual operating preferences. All of the information is saved. The setting data can be imported from the
FTM-500DR/DE and edited setting data can be transferred to the FTM-500DR/DE.
Edit the frequencies, memory names, squelch settings, repeater settings, transmit power, etc. that is
related to the VFO, memory channels, and the HOME channel, etc.
 Congure the various set mode menu options on the computer monitor screen
Use the handy editing functions, such as search, copy, move and paste

SCU-58/SCU-40 USB Driver Software Installation
Do not connect the transceiver to the computer via the SCU-56/SCU-20 PC Connection Cable
until the driver installation process has been completed. Connecting the SCU-56/SCU-20 to the
computer before installation has been completed may result in the wrong driver being installed,
preventing proper operation.
This procedure is not necessary when exchanging data using a micro SD card.
Before using the SCU-56/SCU-20 PC connection cable, installation of the driver software for the SCU-58/
SCU-40 is required. Download the driver software for the SCU-58/SCU-40 in advance.
Download the designated driver software from the Yaesu website (https://www.yaesu.com/). Read the
installation manual thoroughly and install the driver. The SCU-56/SCU-20 is included in the optional SCU-
58/SCU-40 WIRES X Connection Cable Kit.
Connect the FTM-500DR/DE and the PC
This procedure is not necessary when exchanging data using a micro SD card.
