Operation
Data Communication
The G90S supports all amateur data communication modes and the full-function
control of the computer software to the radio. Only simple wiring is needed for
the amateur data communication.
Appropriate digital work mode shall be selected before operation. The
recommended common work modes are as follows:
Data mode
Radio setting mode
* The radio setting mode required for other data
modes can be set in accordance with the using
habit of amateur radio communication.
PSK31
USB
RTTY
LSB
FT8
USB
When amateur radios and the computer cooperate with on data communication,
the computer is used as a "modem". While receiving, the signal received by the
radio is transmitted to the computer for demodulation; while transmitting, the
signal modulated by the computer is transmitted to the radio for transmission.
The signal transmission direction and relationship are as follows:
While receiving: the radio receives the signal → computer
While transmitting: the computer g
enerates the signal → radio
Preparation:
The radio USB data cable (USB-3.5mm plug),
and the driver of the data cable which has been
correctly installed on the computer (the port number
is visible in the equipment manager. The yellow
exclamation point indicates that the equipment
installation is abnormal).
A set of CE-19 expansion card (optional)
Several EMC magnetic rings (self-provided)
Connection steps:
1. Insert the 3.5mm plug of the universal data cable
into the communication port on the left side of the
G90 head, and insert the USB into the computer.
2. Insert the delivered 8-core ACC cable into the
ACC port at the end of the G90 and the other end
into the corresponding port on the CE-19 (note that
there is only one 8-core port).
3. Insert one end of the delivered audio cable into the
AFCON interface of the CE-19, and, according to
the wiring diagram on the CE-19 panel and
connecting method of the audio input/output port of
your own computer, connect the other end with a
3.5mm stereo plug, and insert it to the audio port on
the computer.
4. Set G90S to be "Line input" mode. (See Page 24
for specific methods)
5. Set the G90S to be corresponding work mode for
data communication.
At this point, the wiring is complete. Refer to relevant software instructions for the operation method of
the PC software.
■
The external input signal strength shall be within the ALC control range to avoid the input overloading.
■
The EMC magnetic ring on the USB data cable and the audio cable close to the computer end card can
eliminate the interference of the RF signal to the USB port of the computer, stabilizing the connection.
