4) Turning the power on while holding the “MODE

” button will display the current software 

version. You must then turn the power off and then on to resume normal operation. 

 

Receiver 

 
The transceiver provides both a multi-band sensitive receiver and transmitter. Most of the 
controls have to do with the operation of the receiver section.  However, Mode, Band, and VFO 
apply to the transmitter section as well. 

 

3.1 

Communications Mode 

 
The FT-450 transceiver is designed to communicate using Lower Side Band 
(LSB), Upper Side Band (USB), Continuous Wave (CW, i.e. Morse code),  
Data (DATA), Amplitude Modulation (AM), or Frequency Modulation (FM). 
Pressing either the “MODE

” or “MODE

” will step through the available 

modes in the forward or reverse direction respectively. These buttons are found to the right of the 
“DSP/SEL” knob. Any unwanted modes may be turned off in adaptation using the MENU functions 
described later. 
 
Most user’s will not need all of the communication modes shown in Table 2. When you get to the section 
on adaptation, you will find that you can configure the system to skip any modes that are not needed.

Step through the bands using ”BAND

side of the “MAIN” dial. Only those bands enabled (via the menu 
command) will be selected. The available bands are shown in Table 1 
above. Any unwanted bands may be turned off in adaptation using the 
MENU functions described later.
