FT-X Remote

FT-757SXII / FT-757GXII / FT-840 / FT-850(FT-890) / FT-900 Remote controller

It is an application for remote control of YAESU transceiver of the good old days. Compatible models are FT-757SXII / FT-757GXII / FT-840 / FT-850 (FT-890) / FT-900. The main functions are frequency (band) and mode switching, and various memories. "Frequency database function" and wireless connection by Bluetooth have been added to the paid version. Please take this opportunity to consider the paid version.

* The frequency history memo function (Memo, Auto, Back, Next) is supported only in the paid version.

* The free version does not have any feature upgrades, but the paid version will be upgraded from time to time. We are planning to upgrade the paid version in the near future, so please take this opportunity to consider migrating to the paid version.

Operating environment

・7-inch or larger tablet (USB-OTG required)

It can be used on smartphones with high screen resolution, but it may be difficult to use.

・Control by USB (OTG)

Interface notes (must read!)

・USB connection example

Tablet → USB (OTG) adapter → USB cable → USB conversion adapter → FT-X

*It will not work with a USB adapter that does not support OTG.

*The built-in device of the USB conversion adapter only supports FTDI. Other devices such as PL2303 and CH340 will not work properly.

※Precautions

Please register HOME frequency by yourself after the first activation. (HOME frequency can be registered in all bands)

Please note that this application does not synchronize with the FT main unit, so there may be differences in the settings of the FT-X and the application depending on how it is used.

Since this application includes elements such as conversion cables other than the application, we cannot support it if it does not work well. We apologize for the inconvenience, but use it at your own discretion and responsibility.

How to use

-Connect the smartphone (tablet) and FT with a cable.

・4800 baud rate is selected (4800 fixed)

・Touch the Connect button. If the connection is successful, the FT frequency will be displayed.

・Touch each band button to confirm that it switches.

・Touch the frequency display area to directly set the frequency numerically.

・Frequently used frequencies can be registered in all bands as HOME frequencies by pressing and holding the HOME button

・The frequency can be changed continuously by sliding the seek bar at the bottom of the frequency display to the left or right.

・Press and hold the M01 to M06 buttons to register in the memory.

・To delete the memory contents, check Delete and press and hold each memory button.

*If you press and hold the frequency display area, the FT frequency is reflected in real time, but it seems that it is not practical because the communication speed is as slow as 4800.

* Although the app supports wireless communication using Bluetooth SPP protocol, we have not confirmed the operation because an adapter supporting 4800 baud was not available.
