Introduction
The ADMS-13 programming software uses a Personal Computer to quickly enter and save the FTM-
6000R/E 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-6000R/E and edited setting data can be transferred to the FTM-6000R/E.
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
