New Power Genius XL with CAT for Yaesu FTdx101MP

Rejean Leveille

Amplifier received in an excellent conditions with the latest software 3.8.4 installed and after installing the PGXL Uitility software I wanted to connect it with my radio. I could not find any information what to select as Yaesu 1 or 2 or 3. After building my own CAT RS-232c F/F, I finally got it working by selecting (the right baud rate) Yaesu 2 with 8N2.
I know that I could use the Band Data output but if one day I wanted the PGXL Tuner, I will need this CAT connection for the tuner.
All bands working at 1.5 Kw with +/-50 watts

With PG XL 3.8.4 and Tuner Genius 1.1.20, you only need one CAT connection to the amp.

In the TG XL app under Genius Integration, check the box for Power Genius and enter the IP of the amp. The tuner will get frequency info from the amp.

If you add an Antenna Genius then you need BCD info from Yaesu to AG.
