ANUAL
ANT
Connect your main antenna(s) here, using a type-M (PL-
259) plug and coaxial feedline for each. These antenna
ports are always used for transmission, and also are used
for reception unless a separate receive antenna is also
used for the main receiver. The internal antenna tuner
affects only the antenna(s) connected here, and only
during transmission. These connectors utilize Teflon
®
insulation for extreme durability and to ensure stable
impedance over the entire frequency range.
RX OUT
These BNC jacks provide output of the receiver sig-
nal lines from the Antenna jacks which are connected
to the Main (VFO-A) and sub (VFO-B) front ends.
DC IN
Connect this socket to the OUTPUT socket on the
FPS-9000H External Power Supply. This socket pro-
vides DC power supply voltage for the FT
DX
9000MP .
MIC
This 8-pin jack accepts input from a microphone uti-
lizing a traditional YAESU HF-transceiver pinout.
REMOTE
By plugging in the supplied
FH-2
Remote Control
Keypad to this gold-plated jack, direct access to the
FT
DX
9000MP CPU is provided for control functions
such as contest memory keying, plus frequency and
function control.
+13.8V
This gold-plated output jack provides regulated, sepa-
rately fused 13.8 VDC at up to 200 mA, to power an
external device such as a packet TNC. Make sure your
device does not require more current (if it does, use a
separate power source).
PTT
This gold-plated input jack may be used to provide
manual transmitter activation using a footswitch or
other switching device. Its function is identical to the
[
MOX ] button (# ) on the front panel. The same
line is available at the PACKET and RTTY jacks for
TNC control. Open-circuit voltage is +13.5 VDC, and
closed-circuit current is 5 mA.
RX ANT
This type-M jack is for a separate receive-only an-
tenna. An antenna connected here can be used, by both
the Main (VFO-A) and Sub (VFO-B) receivers, when
the [
RX ANT
] button (#
) on the front panel is
pressed.
If you want to use some special kind of external
bandpass filter or preamplifier, you may connect it
between the RX OUT and RX ANT jacks, as shown
in the illustration.
