(Figure 3).
5. Referring to Figure 4, plug the 14-pin plug which was
removed from the chassis in the previous step into
the J7002 connector on the SCOPE Unit.
6. Locate the Coaxial plugs (labeled
in jacks (J4508 and J4507) on the RX-2 Unit. Un-
plug the Coaxial plug
( )
from the RX-2 Unit and plug it into the J7003 on the SCOPE Unit. Unplug the Coaxial plug
( )
from the RX-2 Unit and plug it into
the J7001 on the SCOPE Unit (Figure 4).
7. Replace the top cover and its nine screws.

SWITCHES AND CONNECTORS
POWER Switch
Press this switch to turn the Data Management Unit on, after first setting the rear panel POWER switch to the “I” position. Press this switch again to turn the Data Management Unit off. If the rear panel’s POWER switch is set to the “O” position, the front panel POWER switch will not function.
CF Card Slot
This slot accepts the supplied Compact Flash (CF) Card, which allows storage, transfer, and recall of transceiver configuration data and operator prefer­ences, along with Log Book data, etc. When the CF Card is successfully inserted, the red LED by the slot will light up. When you insert the CF card into the this slot, please insure that the white side (ridge side) of the CF card is up. If the CF card is inserted incorrectly, the DMU- 2000 may be damaged.
Notch
Ridge
To remove the card out from slot, press the small push­button at the right hand side of the slot. Advice: If you get the “CF CARD IS NOT READY error message on the after-market monitor, check the position of the CF Card in the slot for proper align­ment.
Main POWER Switch
This is main power On (I)/Off (O) switch of the Data Management Unit. Always turn this switch on before turning on the front panel’s [POWER] button. If this switch is not turned On, the front panel [
POWER] switch will not function.
FUSE
This holder requires a T 3.15-A fuse. Always use the T 3.15 Amp fuse, whether operating on 100 - 120 VAC or 200 - 240 VAC.
~AC IN Jack
Connect the supplied 3-wire AC line cord to this socket after ensuring that your AC mains voltage matches that on the label. See the Installation section for instructions on how to change the internal switch­ing power supply AC mains voltage, if necessary.
TRX Jack
Connect this 8-pin MINI-DIN jack to the DMU jack on the FT-2000 transceiver, using the supplied con­trol cable.
COM Jack
Connect a after-market GPS re­ceiver capable of supplying NMEA data to this jack. The data line connects to Pin 2, and the ground shield connects to Pin 5. When you connect the GPS receiver to this jack, the “Rotator” page on the after-market monitor will au­tomatically include a Great Circle map centered on your location. The DMU-2000 can support the RMC Data Sentences from the GPS receiver.

SWITCHES AND CONNECTORS
KEY BOARD Jack
Connect your keyboard (not supplied) to one of these jacks in accordance with your keyboard type (“USB” or “PS/2”) to use the Smart Memory Card for storage of logbook data, and for input of your location when setting up the World Clock.
AUDIO OUT Jack
This jack is for future expansion of the Data Manage­ment Unit’s capabilities, but at this time it is not sup­ported.
AUDIO IN Jack
This jack is audio signal input for the Audio Scope display of the DMU-2000. You can observe the audio wave of a signal provided by equipment connected to this jack.
USB Jack
This jack supports the USB 1.1 protocol, for connec­tion of a USB keyboard. Note: Other types of USB-related accessories (other than a keyboard) are not supported by this jack, and must not be connected here.
When you store the data onto the CF card, please use the CF card that is included with the DMU- 2000 package. If you want to use a CF card other than the one supplied by YEASU, you may need to format the card on a Windows PC by using the FAT16 or FAT32 option.
DISPLAY Jack
Connect an external monitor (not supplied) to this jack.

PLEASE READ THIS FIRST
When turning on the transceiver for the first time, please set the local time as soon as possible. If this is not done, the various functions of the World Clock and Great Circle Map will not function correctly.
Note: If you wish to add a city to the City List that was programmed at the factory, you will need to supply your own USB or PS/2 Keyboard. If you utilize one of the pre-loaded cities, a keyboard is not necessary.
You may also set up the local time for other locations, without a keyboard, using the cities that have been pre-loaded at the factory.
Please note that there are four power switches that must be turned on in order for the operation. They are (1) main power switch of the transceiver, (2) actual power switch of the transceiver, (3) main power switch of the Data Management Unit, and (4) actual power switch of the Data Management Unit. This Data Management Unit must be turned on before pressing the power switch on the front panel of the transceiver.
1. TURNING THE TRANSCEIVER ON
To turn the transceiver on, first press the
main [POWER] switch (so that the “I” side is pressed downward). In the FT- 2000 (100 W version), the main [POWER] switch is on the right side of the rear panel. For the FT-2000D (200 W version), the Main [POWER] switch is lo­cated on the front panel of the FP-2000.
Hold in the front panel [POWER] switch
to turn the transceiver on.
2. TURNING THE DMU-2000 ON
To turn the Data Management Unit on,
first press the main [POWER] switch (so that the “I” side is pressed downward) on the rear panel, then press the front panel [
POWER] switch to turn the Data Man-
agement Unit on.
Note: The opening screen will appear on the after-mar­ket monitor and the self-check function of the CPU in­side the Data Management Unit will begin. When the Data Management Unit is turned on for the first time, it takes about 50 seconds (for self- checking) until the Data Man­agement Unit becomes ready to use; however, from the next time you turn it on, it will take around 10 seconds until the Data Management Unit is ready for full opera­tion.
3. LOCAL TIME SETUP
If you press and hold in the [DISPLAY] key for more
than two seconds, white letters will appear at the bot­tom of the screen to indicate various functions, and the FT-2000’s [F1(CH-1)] ~ [F7(P.BACK)] and [DIS-
PLAY] keys will act as “Function” keys.
On the monitor, there should be a World Map dis-
played; if the World Map does not appear, find the [F1(
MAP)] key on the front panel of the FT-2000;
press this key to get the World Map to display on the monitor.
FUNCTION TABS
Press the [DISPLAY] key to change the action of the
“Function” keys, then press the [F1(SET)] key; the monitor should now show “LOCAL TIME-1;” this set­ting has been pre-set for Japanese time at the factory.
Note
In the discussion to follow, reference will be made to various “Function” keys (for example, [F1(
MAP)]). This nomenclature refers to the
[F1(
CH-1)] ~ [DISPLAY] keys located along the
bottom left edge of the front panel of the FT-2000. The exact function of each key will depend upon the “Page” of the display being viewed on the monitor; therefore, when using the World Map page, [F1(MAP)] represents the pressing of the [F1(
CH-1)] key, with “MAP” being the function
appearing in the “F1” position at the bottom edge of the monitor screen.

HOW TO USE THE WORLD CLOCK
ABOUT THE WORLD CLOCK
The World Clock displays the time in various countries, and the day/night areas are also indicated on the map, in­cluding the Grey Line near the terminator. The differ­ence between the daylight areas in the Southern and Northern Hemispheres is displayed correctly, and is up­dated in real time. For DX hunting, this can be a very important and convenient tool for specific long distance HF QSOs, for example, as you can target the time the other station might have access to, say, the 80-meter band, enabling you to complete a QSO. In addition, an alarm is provided which beeps with respect to a designated area at a designated time, and the auto-off timer can also be matched to any desired area you stipulate.
Note: When you turn on the Data Management Unit for the first time after your purchasing, please set the Local Time (the place where you operate this radio), and con­firm this setting.
