YAESU MUSEN CO., LTD.

OVERVIEW
The CAT (Computer Aided Transceiver) System in the
FTDX3000 transceiver provides control of frequency,
VFO, memory, and other settings such as dual-channel
memories and diversity reception using an external per-
sonal computer. This allows multiple control operations
to be fully automated with single mouse clicks, or key-
stroke operations on the computer keyboard.
Using the RS-232C Cable
The FTDX3000 transceiver has a built-in level converter,
allowing direct connection from the rear-panel CAT jack
to the serial port of your computer without the need of
any external boxes.
When using the RS-232C cable, set Menu item “037 CAT
SELECT” to “RS232C”.
You will need a serial cable for connection to the RS-
232C (serial or COM port) connector on your computer.
Purchase a standard serial cable (not the so-called “null
modem” type), ensuring it has the correct gender and num-
ber of pins (some serial COM port connectors use a 9-pin
rather than 25-pin configuration). If your computer uses a
custom connector, you may have to construct the cable.
In this case, refer to the technical documentation supplied
with your computer for correct data connection.
Using the USB Cable
Note: A USB driver is required for remote control from
a computer. Download the driver from the Yaesu
website (http://www.yaesu.com).
The FTDX3000 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 with-
out the need of any external boxes.
When using the USB cable, set Menu item “037 CAT
SELECT” to “USB”.
You will need a USB cable to connect to the USB jack on
your computer.

erating software due to the wide variety of personal
computers and operating systems in use today. How-
ever, the information provided in this chapter explains
the serial data structure and opcodes used by the CAT
system. This information, along with the short pro-
gramming examples, is intended to help you start
writing programs on your own. As you become more
familiar with CAT operation, you can customize pro-
grams for your operating needs and utilize the full
operating potential of this system.

CONTROL COMMAND
A computer control command is composed of an alpha-
betical 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 14250000 ;

Command Parameter Terminator
There are three commands for the FTDX3000 as shown be-
low:
Set command: Set a particular condition
(to the FTDX3000)
Read command: Reads an answer
(from the FTDX3000)
Answer command: Transmits a condition
(from the FTDX3000)
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:
“FA14250000;” (Set command)
To read the VFO-A frequency, the following command
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:
“FA14250000;” (Answer command)
Alphabetical Commands
A command consists of 2 alphabetical characters.
You may use either lower or upper case characters. 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 necessary to
implement the desired command.
The parameters to be used for each command are prede-
termined. The number of digits assigned to each param-
eter is also predetermined. Refer to the “Control Com-
mand List” and the “Control Command Tables” to con-
figure the appropriate parameters.
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 specified (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
FTDX3000, 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.
