Cable Installation

Connect the HF/50 MHz antenna jack on the FT-897 to the

Radio

jack on the back of the

AT-897Plus, using the supplied coax jumper cable, or a similar 50 ohm coax cable rated 125
watts or greater.

Connect the supplied radio interface cable to the mini-DIN 8-pin jack on the rear of the AT-

897Plus, marked “

Ra dio

”. Connect the other end of this cable to the CAT/LINEAR jack on the

rear of the FT-897.

On the FT-897, press and hold the

FUNC

button for one second to activate the extended

menu system. Rotate the SEL knob until menu #001, “EXT MENU” appears. Rotate the dial
knob until “ON ” appears, to activate the extended menus. Rotate the

SEL

knob until menu #019

“CAT RATE” is visible. Rotate the main tuning knob until “4800bps” is showing. Next, rotate
the

SEL

knob one click clockwise, to select menu #020, “CAT/LIN/TUN ER”. Rotate the main

tuning knob until “CAT” is showing. Now press and hold

FUNC

again, to return to normal

operation.

Finishing Up Installation

Connect a 50-ohm coax feedline to the jack marked

ANT

on the rear of the AT-897P lus, and

connect this to the antenna system.

If it is desired to operate the FT-897 via computer control, connect the Yaesu CT-62 CAT

interface cable to the AT-897Plus port labeled “

CAT In

”. The AT-897Plus will automatically

feed through any CAT commands coming in over this port to the transceiver and vice versa.
Note that any software used to control the transceiver will have to be set for 4,800 baud while
connected through the AT-897Plus.
