数据模式(FT8 / RTTY / PSK)

DATA (FT8 / RTTY / PSK) Operation
本章要点:本章讲用 USB 线把 FTX-1 与电脑连起来做数据通信:先解决虚拟 COM 端口驱动, 再用一个 [PRESET] 把 FT8 所需的多个设置一次性调好;最后给出 PRESET 中 15 项可改参数的完整清单, 以及 RTTY / PSK 的设置与"发不出功率 / 收不到音频"的排查路径。

20.1 与个人电脑连接Connecting to a Personal Computer

EN

The transceiver and a PC may be connected with a commercially available USB cable (Type-C) to operate data communications using commercially available software and freeware.

Before connecting a RTTY communications TU (Terminal unit) or DATA Communications Device to the transceiver, also refer to the instruction manual of the connected device.

To connect to a PC using a USB cable, a Virtual COM port driver must be installed on the PC. Visit the Yaesu website http://www.yaesu.com/ to download the Virtual COM port driver and Installation Manual.

收发信机可以通过市售 USB 线(Type-C)与个人电脑连接,借助市售软件或免费软件进行数据通信。

在把 RTTY 通信用的 TU(Terminal Unit,终端单元)或数据通信设备连接到收发信机之前, 也请一并参考所连接设备的使用说明书。

要通过 USB 线连接电脑,必须在电脑上安装虚拟 COM 端口驱动(Virtual COM port driver)。 请访问 Yaesu 网站 http://www.yaesu.com/ 下载虚拟 COM 端口驱动程序及安装手册。

连接示意:市售 USB Type-C(A-C)线 → 接至 USB 端口。

注意 / NOTE 驱动安装必须先于第一次插线操作完成;否则 Windows 会把它识别成一个"未知设备", 后续即使补装驱动,设备管理器里也可能留下占着 port number 的僵尸 COM 端口。 如果 CAT 软件里怎么都找不到端口,先把设备管理器里重复的端口删掉重插一次。(社区经验) Install the Virtual COM port driver before the first USB connection, otherwise Windows may create a zombie COM port that later CAT software cannot use.

20.2 FT8 操作FT8 Operation

EN

The multiple settings required for FT8 operation may be set with one touch of [PRESET]. In addition, the FT8 settings can be returned to the prior settings with one touch.

  1. Touch the operation mode area, or press and hold the [N/W] key.
  2. The operation MODE selection screen appears on the display, then touch [PRESET], or rotate the [FUNC] knob to select [PRESET] then press the [FUNC] knob.
  3. Touch [PRESET] or select [PRESET] via the [FUNC] knob, the settings will be confirmed and then the operating screen will return.
  4. Touch [PRESET] again, the [PRESET] settings are canceled and the original settings are restored.

The color of the [PRESET] shows the current state.

Blue: Enable the [PRESET] settings
Gray: Disable the [PRESET] settings

FT8 操作所需的多项设置可以一次触摸 [PRESET] 全部设定好;同样地,也只有再触摸一下, 就能把 FT8 设置还原到之前的状态。

  1. 触摸操作模式区域,或按住 [N/W] 键。
  2. 屏上出现操作模式(MODE)选择画面后,触摸 [PRESET]; 也可以旋转 [FUNC] 旋钮选中 [PRESET] 再按一下 [FUNC] 旋钮。
  3. 触摸 [PRESET] 或通过 [FUNC] 旋钮选中 [PRESET],设置即被确认,随后返回操作画面。
  4. 再次触摸 [PRESET],[PRESET] 设置被取消,恢复到原来的设置。

[PRESET] 的颜色表示当前状态:

蓝色:启用 [PRESET] 设置
灰色:停用 [PRESET] 设置

20.3 更改 [PRESET] 设置Change the [PRESET] Setting

EN

Five channels of the 15 listed in the table below are registered in [PRESET]. These settings may be changed as needed.

  1. Touch and hold [PRESET], the operation mode selection screen appears on the display.
  2. Touch the PRESET 1 to 5 settings to be changed.
  3. Touch the desired item, or rotate the [FUNC] knob to select the desired item, then press the [FUNC] knob.
  4. Rotate the [FUNC] knob, or touch "<" or ">" on either side of the value setting that is to be changed.
  5. Press the [FUNC] knob, or wait for about 3 seconds to save the setting.
  6. Press the [BACK] key twice to return to the operation MODE selection screen. After about 5 seconds, the operation screen will return.

[PRESET] 中登记的功能取自下表所列 15 项,共提供 5 个预设档位;这些设置都可以按需要更改。

  1. 长按 [PRESET],屏上出现操作模式选择画面。
  2. 触摸 PRESET 1 ~ 5 中要修改的那一档。
  3. 触摸所需的条目;或旋转 [FUNC] 旋钮选中该条目,再按一下 [FUNC] 旋钮。
  4. 旋转 [FUNC] 旋钮,或触摸要修改的数值两侧的 "<" / ">"。
  5. 按一下 [FUNC] 旋钮,或等待约 3 秒保存设置。
  6. 按两次 [BACK] 键返回操作模式选择画面;约 5 秒后自动返回操作画面。

20.4 RTTY / PSK 操作RTTY / PSK Operation

EN

RTTY-L / RTTY-U, DATA-L / DATA-U and PSK are among the operating modes of the FTX-1, and they are run over the same USB connection described above. Before connecting a RTTY communications TU (Terminal unit) or DATA Communications Device to the transceiver, also refer to the instruction manual of the connected device.

The items most relevant to RTTY / PSK are found among the [PRESET] functions: MOD SOURCE, USB MOD GAIN, USB OUT LEVEL, TX BPF SEL, LCUT / HCUT settings, CAT-1 RATE and RPTT SELECT.

RTTY-L / RTTY-U、DATA-L / DATA-U 与 PSK 都属于 FTX-1 的操作模式,它们复用上面所述的同一条 USB 连接。 在把 RTTY 通信用的 TU(终端单元)或数据通信设备接到收发信机之前,请同时参考所连接设备的使用说明书。

与 RTTY / PSK 关系最密切的设置项,都在 [PRESET] 的功能清单里:MOD SOURCE、USB MOD GAIN、 USB OUT LEVEL、TX BPF SEL、LCUT / HCUT 系列设置、CAT-1 RATE 以及 RPTT SELECT。

EN

Minimum working setup (an editor-compiled checklist built from the [PRESET] items above; follow your software's requirements for actual values):

  1. Install the Virtual COM port driver, then connect the PC with a USB Type-C (A-C) cable.
  2. Select the operating mode appropriate to the software in use.
  3. Long-press [PRESET], open PRESET 1 - 5 and confirm that MOD SOURCE is set to USB (or AUTO), and that USB MOD GAIN is not 0.
  4. In the software, select the matching USB audio device and CAT COM port, then set the PTT method to match RPTT SELECT.

最小可用配置(以下为编者按上述 [PRESET] 项目整理的检查清单,具体参数仍以软件要求为准):

  1. 安装虚拟 COM 端口驱动,然后用 USB Type-C(A-C)线连接电脑。
  2. 根据所用软件,选择相应的操作模式。
  3. 长按 [PRESET],打开 PRESET 1 ~ 5,确认 MOD SOURCE 已设为 USB(或 AUTO), 且 USB MOD GAIN 不为 0。
  4. 在软件中选择对应的 USB 音频设备与 CAT 的 COM 端口,并把 PTT 方式与 RPTT SELECT 的设置对应起来。
避坑指南 / PITFALL "按下发射,软件在走序列,但机器没功率"——按这个顺序查: ① MOD SOURCE:还停在 MIC 时,机器的音频来源不是 USB,当然发不出去;改为 USB(或 AUTO)。 ② USB MOD GAIN:设成 0 等于没有调制信号。 ③ RPTT SELECT:OFF 时本机不会响应软件通过 RTS / DTR 发出的发射请求;按软件实际用的那一根改成 RTS 或 DTR。 ④ CAT-1 RATE:9600 / 19200 / 38400 / 115200bps 中,必须与软件里选的波特率完全一致,否则 CAT 控制不上。 ⑤ MODE 是否选对:还在 LSB / USB 语音模式下跑软件产生的调制音, 多半既没有正确的发射带宽、也 weld不上对方的解码;应切到软件要求的数据模式。 "发射正常,但软件里没有瀑布、收不到报"——按这个顺序查: ① USB OUT LEVEL 是否被改成了 0(默认值为 50); ② SQL 是否拧得太紧,把接收音频整个静掉了; ③ 软件里选的音频输入设备是不是本机对应的 USB 音频设备(系统里往往有不止一个); ④ [PRESET] 是否已停用(灰色)——此时接收侧的参数已还原到常规设置,与 FT8 状态下表现不同是正常的。 另外,每次排查前先把 [PRESET] 恢复到已知状态(先触摸一次进入蓝色、再触摸一次回到灰色), 保证起点一致,再逐项改动。(社区经验) No RF output: confirm MOD SOURCE is USB (or AUTO), USB MOD GAIN is not 0, RPTT SELECT matches the RTS/DTR line used by the software, CAT-1 RATE matches the software baud rate exactly, and the correct data mode is selected. No waterfall / no decode: check USB OUT LEVEL is not 0 (default 50), the squelch is open, the software has selected the right USB audio input, and note that [PRESET] being gray returns the receiver settings to normal. Always start troubleshooting from a known [PRESET] state. (community-reported)
HAM 实战 · 技术提示FIELD NOTE FT8 请把 [PRESET] 当成"一键进入与一键退出"来用:进入蓝色 [PRESET] 之前, 先记下你常用的 AGC 与音频设置;FT8 结束后再触摸一次 [PRESET] 让它变回灰色, 机器就恢复到你原来的 SSB / CW 设置。 如果你想把 FT8 的参数改得不一样(比如 AGC SLOW DELAY、USB OUT LEVEL),就长按 [PRESET] 打开 PRESET 1 ~ 5 里去改,而不是在别的菜单里东改一处西改一处——一旦记不清改了哪几项, 最后往往只能"恢复出厂设置"。(社区经验) Treat [PRESET] as one-touch in / one-touch out for FT8, and make any parameter changes inside PRESET 1-5 rather than scattering them across other menus, so recovery is easy.
