YAESU MUSEN does not produce CAT System
operating software due to the wide variety of
personal computers and operating systems in
use today. However, the information provided
in this chapter explains the serial data structure
and opcodes used by the CAT system. This
information, along with the short programming
examples, is intended to help you start writing
programs on your own. As you become more
familiar with CAT operation, you can customize
programs for your operating needs and utilize
the full operating potential of this system.
The CAT (Computer Aided Transceiver) System
in the FT-891 transceiver provides control of
frequency, VFO, memory, and other settings such
as dual-channel memories and diversity reception
using an external personal computer. This allows
multiple control operations to be fully automated
with single mouse clicks, or keystroke operations
on the computer keyboard.
Using the USB Cable (Refer to gure 1)
Note: A USB driver is required for remote control
from a computer. Download the driver from
the Yaesu website (http://www.yaesu.com).
The FT-891 transceiver has a built-in USB to Dual
UART Bridge, allowing direct connection from
the rear-panel USB jack to the USB jack of your
computer without the need of any external boxes.
You will need a USB cable to connect to the USB
jack on your computer.

CAT (Computer Aided Transceiver)Operation
Control Command
A computer control command is composed of an
alphabetical command, various parameters, and
the terminator that signals the end of the control
command.
Example:
Set the VFO-A frequency to 14.250000 MHz.
FA 014250000 ;
   
Command Parameter Terminator
There are three commands for the FT-891 as
shown below:
Set command: Set a particular condition
(to the FT-891)
Read command: Reads an answer
(from the FT-891)
Answer command: Transmits a condition
(from the FT-891)
For example, note the following case of the FA
command (Set the VFO-A frequency):
To set the VFO-A frequency to 14.250000 MHz, the
following command is sent from the computer to the
transceiver:
“FA014250000;” (Set command)
To read the VFO-A frequency, the following com-
mand is sent from the computer to the transceiver:
“FA;” (Read command)
When the Read command above has been sent, the
following command is returned to the computer:
“FA014250000;” (Answer command)
Alphabetical Commands
A command consists of 2 alphabetical characters.
You may use either lower or upper case charac-
ters. The commands available for this transceiver
are listed in the “PC Control Command Tables” on
the following pages.
Parameters
Parameters are used to specify information neces-
sary to implement the desired command.
The parameters to be used for each command are
predetermined. The number of digits assigned to
each parameter is also predetermined. Refer to
the “Control Command List” and the “Control Com-
mand Tables” to congure the appropriate parame-
ters.
When configuring parameters, be careful not to
make the following mistakes.
For example,
when the correct parameter is “IS0+1000” (IF
SHIFT):
IS01000;
 Notenoughparametersspecied(Nodirection(+)
given for the IF shift)
IS0+100;
Not enough digits (Only three frequency digits
given)
IS0_+_1000;
Unnecessary characters between parameters
IS0+10000;
Too many digits (Five frequency digits given)
Note: If a particular parameter is not applicable to
the FT-891, the parameter digits should be filled
using any character except the ASCII control codes
(00 to 1Fh) and the terminator (;).
Terminator
To signal the end of a command, it is necessary to
use a semicolon (;). The digit where this special
character must appear differs depending on the
command used.
