FT-90R OPERATING MANUAL
Base Station Installation
The FT-90R is ideal for base station use as well as in mobile installations. The FT-
90R is specifically designed to integrate into your station easily, using the infor-
mation to follow as a reference.
AC Power Supplies
Operation of the FT-90R from an AC line requires a power source capable of
providing at least 10 Amps continuously at 13.8 Volts DC. The FP-1023A, FP-
1025A, and FP-1030A AC Power Supplies are available from your Yaesu dealer
to satisfy these requirements. Other well-regulated power supplies may be used,
as well, if they meet the above voltage and current specifications.
Use the DC power cable supplied with your transceiver for making power connec-
tions to the power supply. Connect the RED power cable lead to the POSITIVE
(+) power supply terminal, and connect the BLACK power cable lead to the NEGA-
TIVE (-) power supply terminal.
Packet Radio Terminal Node Controller (TNC)
The extremely compact size of the FT-90R does not allow the inclusion of a
dedicated packet interfacing jack. However, all connections required for either
1200 bps or 9600 bps packet operation are provided, either on the front or rear
panel.
1200 BPS PACKET SETUP
1. Connect the TNC’s “Data In” (RX Audio) line to the EXT SP jack on the rear
panel of the FT-90R.
2. Connect the TNC’s Ground, “Data Out” (TX Audio), and PTT lines to Pins
„,…, and † of the right side MIC jack (see illustration).
