Data Mode Convenient for Operation Using an External Device

As well as a microphone terminal, the rear panel has a variety of input and output interfaces such as an analog audio
input and output, a USB audio interface, and a LAN (VoIP) interface. The demodulation path by a combination with
DATA mode in each mode of SSB/FM/AM is free to be configured. Also, transmission by a modulated signal from a PC
becomes available by using DATA VOX at the same time, and the wiring and commands to standby are not required.

Switching the Input Sound Source

The sound source to be transmitted by using the [PTT] or [SEND] key and the sound source to be transmitted by the
PKS signal of the rear panel ACC 2 connector or by using the [DATA SEND] key assigned to a [PF] key can be switched
as required. They can each be configured as OFF/ON in DATA mode.
The image above is a configuration example of when DATA mode is ON. The microphone input audio is selected as
the sound source of when transmission is by using the [SEND] key or [PTT], and the input audio from the rear panel
connector is blocked. For the sound source of when transmission is by the PKS signal of the rear panel ACC 2 connector
or by using the [DATA SEND] key assigned to a [PF] key, the USB audio from the USB connector is selected, and the
microphone input audio is blocked.
In addition, this screen appears by pressing and holding the [DATA] key. Pressing and holding the [DATA] key while
DATA mode is ON enables the behavior configuration of when DATA mode is ON, and pressing and holding the [DATA]
key while DATA mode is OFF enables the behavior configuration of when DATA mode is OFF.
The VOX behavior (DATA VOX) by the audio input from the rear panel connector is also configured on this screen.
