This transceiver has the capability to quickly and conveniently transfer the receive frequency and mode to another compatible transceiver. Compatible transceivers include:

TS-570S/570D

TS-850S

TS-870S

TS-690S

TS-950SDX

TS-450S

Data Transfer could be useful while contesting. A spotting station that is searching for new contest multipliers can quickly transfer a frequency over to the running (main) station.

SETTING UP

Equipment Needed

In addition to a compatible transceiver, the following equipment is required:

Transfer to TS-570 or TS-870S:

One cross-wired cable

This cable must have a 9-pin RS-232C female connector at both ends.

Transfer to a transceiver other than TS-570 and TS-870S:

KENWOOD IF-232C interface unit

One cross-wired cable

This cable must have a 9-pin RS-232C female connector at one end and a 25-pin RS-232C female connector at the other end.

One straight cable

This cable must have a 6-pin DIN male connector at both ends.

Connections

For diagrams on how to connect the two transceivers, see “CONNECTING PERIPHERAL EQUIPMENT ” {page 60}.

The TS-570 transceiver works as the Master sending data to the Slave transceiver.

1Switch ON the Transfer function on each transceiver.

On the TS-570, access Menu No. 36 and select ON. For the compatible transceiver, check the instruction manual that came with the transceiver.

2On the Master, while in VFO mode, select an operating frequency and mode.

3On the Master, press QUICK MEMO [M.IN].

When using another TS-570 as the Slave, “CTRL” appears on the Slave.

The displayed data is stored in Quick memory channel 1 on the Master and transferred to the Slave.

Note: If the Master has RIT switched ON, the offset frequency is added to the receive frequency to be transferred.

Receiving Data

The TS-570 transceiver works as the Slave, receiving data from the Master transceiver. The Slave can receive data using either Quick memory channel 1 or the VFO.

1Switch ON the Transfer function on each transceiver.

On the TS-570, access Menu No. 36 and select ON. For the compatible transceiver, check the instruction manual that came with the transceiver.

2On the Slave, access Menu No. 37 and select either OFF (Quick memory channel 1) or ON (the VFO).

The default is Quick memory.

3On the Master, perform the appropriate operation to send data.

For the correct method, check the instruction manual that came with the transceiver.

USING QUICK TRANSFER

When connecting with another TS-570 or the TS-870S, use the same COM connector baud rate on each transceiver. If transferring to or from other KENWOOD transceivers, select 4800 bps and 2 stop bits on the TS-570. Use Menu No. 35 to select these parameters.

Note: While transferring data, other functions may work slowly.

If you always use the TS-570 just to receive, activate TX Inhibit via Menu No. 38 to avoid unintentional transmission.

When the Slave receives data using the VFO programmed with a simplex frequency, the received data replaces the data on both VFOs. On the Slave, both RIT and XIT are set to OFF.

When the Slave receives data using the VFOs programmed with split frequencies, the received data replaces the data only on the TX side of the VFO. On the Slave, XIT is set to OFF but RIT is not changed.
