Yaesu FT-991 Manuale

Setup of YAESU FT-991(A) for Soundcard Modems

The YAESU FT-991 with its built-in soundcard allows easy operation of

soundcard based digital modes like FT8, VARA, VARA FM, Packet 1200,

WINMOR, ARDOP. Just a standard USB cable is needed between a PC and the

FT-991. Rig control (CAT), PTT control and Audio In/Out pass on this single USB

cable.

There is one draw-back with the FT-991: The soundcard cannot be used for

Packet Radio 9600 or for VARA FM in wideband (‘9600’) mode. In fact, when

setting ‘Packet Mode’ in the FT-991 to 9600, the soundcard does not modulate

the FM signal. Direct FM Modulation can only be done via the RTTY/DATA

connector.

To setup the FT-991(A) for WINLINK Express and VARA or WINMOR, the USB

Driver fort the FT-991 has to be installed on the PC first. This happens

automatically as soon as you connect the FT-991(A) with the USB cable to your

PC when it is online.

You can check if the 2 COM ports and the soundcard are correctly found and

installed by checking with the device manager. You will find an ‘Enhanced COM

Port’ and a ‘Standard COM Port’:

If the driver is not installed properly, right click on ‘Enhanced COM Port’, select

‘Update driver’ and have the OS search for it automatically in the Internet.

The soundcard appears as a ‘USB Audio CODEC’ (Microphone and Speaker) :

Now open a VARA, WINMOR or ARDOP session in WL Express and select Radio

settings. Configure as shown (use the Enhanced COM Port as Radio Control

Port – in this case COM5):

*) This setting is used with UZ7HO soundmodem. It is not relevant for VARA

FM, which must be configured to use CAT.

To use the built-in soundcard for UHF/VHF, you must manually set the FT-991

to Mode ‘FM DATA’.

For VARA FM, the PTT setting is using CAT:
