Installing the transceiver

Precautions on installation
Note the following when installing the transceiver.
 Do not install the transceiver in a place where it would be exposed to direct sunlight,
high temperatures, excessive humidity, dusty conditions, or extreme vibrations.
 Install the transceiver in a well-ventilated position, so that heat dissipation is not
hindered, because the heat sinks will become hot when the transceiver is run for an
extended period of time.
 Do not place any objects on the transceiver.
 Do not attempt to lift the front panel by holding onto just the knob or control cable.
 This transceiver requires a 13.8 V DC power supply.
When using this transceiver in a mobile unit, ensure that the car battery is a 12 V
type. Never connect this transceiver to a 24 V battery of a large vehicle.
 Never connect the transceiver to a 100 V AC power source.
 Heed caution as hum and noise may be introduced, depending on the installation
conditions of the external power source.
 Install the transceiver as far away as possible from TVs and radios. Failing to do so
may result in noise interference such as broadcast interference (BCI) or television
interference (TVI) from radios and TVs respectively.

Never attempt to install this transceiver near indoor antenna elements.
17
Installation location when used in a mobile unit

●●Front panel
To efficiently receive the GPS satellites, it is recommended that the transceiver should
be installed on the dashboard or front side of the center console. See “Installing the
front panel” on page 21.

About the antenna

The antenna is an extremely important part for both transmitting and receiving. The
antenna type and its inherent characteristics determine whether the performance of the
transceiver can be fully realized. As such, please note the following:
 Use an antenna that is suitable for the installation conditions and application
objective.
 Use an antenna that is suitable for the operating frequency band.
 Use an antenna and a coaxial cable with a characteristic feed point impedance of
50Ω.
 Adjust the VSWR (Voltage Standing Wave Ratio) until it is 1.5 or less for an antenna
with an adjusted impedance of 50Ω.
 Keep the coaxial cable routing length as short as possible.
Installing the antenna
●●Antenna installation in a mobile unit

Install the antenna base to the rear of the car (rear bumper, trunk, rear gate, etc.) and
then attach the antenna to the base.

Cautions
zz Verify that the antenna base is securely grounded to the car body.
zz When using a coaxial cable included with a commercially-available on-vehicle antenna, lay the
cable in a way to keep it as short as possible.
zz Do not allow rain water or moisture to penetrate the entrance of the cable or connectors when
routing the coaxial cable inside the vehicle.
●●Antenna installation when using a fixed station

For use in an outdoor setting, there are omni-directional antennas and a variety of
directional antennas.
• Omni-directional antennas such as the GP (Ground Plane) antenna are suitable for
communications with a local station or mobile stations in all directions.
• Directional antennas such as the Yagi antenna are suitable for communications with a
specific station or a remote station in a specific direction.
Cautions
zz Create a loop (slack) in the coaxial cable directly underneath the antenna and fasten the coaxial
cable so that the weight of the cable does not pull on the antenna.
zz When installing the antenna, take into consideration the securing supports and how the guy wires
are positioned, so that the antenna does not fall over or get blown away by strong wind gusts.

The FTM-100DR/DE transceiver is equipped with an internal GPS reception unit to
receive and display the location information at all times. The location information can be
used for the following purposes:
Save the location information of other stations and note whether or not they are
within communication range.
Refer to the separate GM Function Instruction Manual.
Exchange the location information and messages with other stations, during data
communications.
Refer to the separate APRS Instruction Manual.
For additional details on the GPS function, refer to the Advanced Manual which may be
downloaded from the Yaesu website.
55
What is the APRS (Automatic Packet Reporting System) function?

For amateur radios, there are several functions that display location information using
GPS, however the APRS is a data communication system that transmits data such as
location information and messages using the format developed by Bob Bruninga of
WB4APR.
Upon receiving an APRS signal from another station, information such as: the direction
and distance to that station from your station; the speed of the station; the identity and
other information may be displayed on the screen of your transceiver.
When using the APRS function, station information such as the call sign and symbol of
your own station need to be set in the APRS initial setup menus.
For details, refer to the APRS Instruction Manual (download from Yaesu website).
56
What is the GM (Group Monitor) Function?

The GM function automatically monitors for any other stations with the GM function
in operation on the same frequency, or stations transmitting in DN mode, within
communication range. The GM function then displays the acquired information,
including the direction and distance, on the screen for each detected call sign.
In addition to notifying you of the GM group members within your communication range,
the GM function also displays the relative positions of all the members in the group on
the transceiver screen.
Furthermore, the GM function may also be used to exchange data such as messages
and images between group members.
Tips
• The GM function does not work while in the analog mode. When the GM function is activated, the
operating band automatically switches to DN mode.
• When sending an image with the GM function in operation, the operating band automatically
switches to FR mode (high-speed data communication mode). Upon completion of the data
transmission, the mode automatically reverts to the original V/D mode (simultaneous voice/data
communication mode).
How to use the GM function

The GM function enables the display of all stations operating the GM function (up to 24
stations).
For detailed information about the operation and functions of the GM mode, refer to the
separate GM Function Instruction Manual (download from Yaesu website).

Tips • Displays for stations within your communication
range.
• Displays for stations outside your communication
range.
58
What is the WIRES-X Function?

The WIRES-X is a system that links to other users via the Internet. This function enables
users to communicate with other users world wide, regardless of the distance.
When the transceiver is connected to WIRES-X, the call sings of other stations and
rooms on the WIRES-X are displayed.
To establish a WIRES-X node station, the WIRES-X connection kit “HRI-200” sold
separately is required. For details, refer to the separate WIRES-X Instruction Manual
(download from the Yaesu website).
59
Communicating with specific stations

Using the tone squelch function
This radio is equipped with the CTCSS (Continuous Tone-coded Squelch System which
allows audio to be heard only when receiving signals containing the same frequency
tone as the tone that has been set in the tone squelch menu. By matching the tone
frequency with the partner station in advance, a quiet standby monitoring is possible.
Using the digital code squelch function

This radio is equipped with a DCS (Digital Coded Squelch) function that allows audio to
be heard only when signals containing the corresponding DCS code are received. By
matching the DCS code with the partner stations beforehand, a quiet receive standby is
possible.
Using the new pager function

Use the pager code consisting of 2 CTCSS tones to exchange communications with
specified stations.
Notification of incoming calls from partner stations using the bell

function
While communicating using the tone squelch, DCS, or new pager function, a beep may
be programmed to sound when a signal containing the corresponding code is received.
