16 OTHER FUNCTIONS Operation 1 Transfer the TX frequency and mode information during split operation from the TX/RX end to the sub-receiver end. By pressing [SPLIT] at the TX/RX end to switch to the split mode, the TX frequency and mode information is transferred to the VFO of the sub-receiver and enables the TX frequency to be received by the sub-receiver. Subsequently, when there is a change in the TX frequency at the TX/RX end, the new TX frequency information will be transferred automatically, and the RX frequency at the subreceiver will be adjusted accordingly. Below are some examples. • When the TX frequency is changed using the XIT function • When the RX band and TX band are changed at the same time using the Band Direct key ("RX/ TX Band" needs to be selected in advance in Menu [3-13] "Band Direct Keys in Split Mode".) • When the split TX frequency is changed via operation of the [RIT/XIT] control ("TX Frequency Offset while RX" needs to be selected in advance in Menu [3-12] "Split Frequency Offset by RIT/XIT Control".) 2 Change the RX frequency and mode that are transferred from the TX/RX end at the sub-receiver end. The frequency and mode that are transferred to the subreceiver end can be adjusted independently without affecting the value at the TX/RX end. To restore the state where the frequency matches with the TX frequency at the TX/RX end, press [SPLIT] at the TX/RX end to reactivate the split function. 3 Transfer the frequency detected at the sub-receiver end to the TX frequency at the TX/RX end.

Operation
1
Transfer the TX frequency and mode information
during split operation from the TX/RX end to the
sub-receiver end.
By pressing
[SPLIT]
at the TX/RX end to switch to the split
mode, the TX frequency and mode information is transferred
to the VFO of the sub-receiver and enables the TX frequency
to be received by the sub-receiver.
Subsequently, when there is a change in the TX frequency at
the TX/RX end, the new TX frequency information will be
transferred automatically, and the RX frequency at the sub-
receiver will be adjusted accordingly. Below are some
examples.
When the TX frequency is changed using the XIT function
When the RX band and TX band are changed at the same
time using the Band Direct key (“RX/ TX Band” needs to be
selected in advance in Menu [3-13]
Band Direct Keys in
Split Mode
.)
When the split TX frequency is changed via operation of the
[RIT/XIT]
control (“TX Frequency Offset while RX” needs to
be selected in advance in Menu [3-12]
Split Frequency
Offset by RIT/XIT Control
.)
2
Change the RX frequency and mode that are
transferred from the TX/RX end at the sub-receiver
end.
The frequency and mode that are transferred to the sub-
receiver end can be adjusted independently without affecting
the value at the TX/RX end.
To restore the state where the frequency matches with the TX
frequency at the TX/RX end, press
[SPLIT]
at the TX/RX end
to reactivate the split function.
3
Transfer the frequency detected at the sub-receiver
end to the TX frequency at the TX/RX end.
Pressing
[<Q-M.IN]
at the sub-receiver end transfers the
current frequency and mode information to the TX VFO at the
TX/RX end.
Upon transmission from the TX/RX end, the sub-receiver
switches to the standby mode.
The transceiver at the sub-receiver end is inhibited from
transmission.
When XIT at the TX/RX end is ON, the XIT frequency is
added to the frequency to be transferred.
When RIT at the sub-receiver end is ON, the RIT
frequency is added to the frequency to be transferred.
The transceiver at the TX/RX end is unable to receive
the frequency and mode information from the sub-
receiver if it is not configured to the split mode.
The transceiver at the TX/RX end is able to receive the
frequency and mode information from the sub-receiver
even when it is in the frequency lock mode.
Muting the Sub-receiver
The RX audio at the sub-receiver can be muted by the TX/RX end.
1
Assign “Mute (Sub Receiver)” to a PF key at the TX/
RX end.
2
Press PF [Mute (Sub Receiver)].
The RX audio at the sub-receiver end is muted.
Pressing the
PF [Mute (Sub Receiver)]
key again unmutes
the RX audio.
Split Transfer B
This function supports the “split transfer” function on models
before the TS-890S. It allows existing users of the “split transfer”
function to continue using it after changing to TS-890S.
Follow the steps below to operate this transceiver. To combine the
use of a transceiver other than this transceiver, please refer to the
instruction manual of the model to be used.
Using TS-890S at the Sub-receiver End (Master)
1
Turn ON Split Transfer B.
Select “B” in Menu [7-04]
Quick Data Transfer
.
2
Tune to the frequency of the party to communicate
with in the VFO mode.
Operate the
Tuning
control to tune to the frequency of the party
to communicate with.
3
Transfer the frequency and mode information to the
TX/RX end.
Pressing
[<Q-M.IN]
saves the frequency and mode information
to channel 0 of the quick memory and transfers it to quick
memory channel 0 or VFO at the TX/RX end.
Using TS-890S at the TX/RX End (Slave)
1
Turn ON Split Transfer B.
Select “B” in Menu [7-04]
Quick Data Transfer
.
2
Configure whether frequency and mode
information transferred from the sub-receiver is to
be received by the quick memory channel or VFO.
Select “VFO” or “Quick Memory” in Menu [7-05]
Overwrite
Location (Quick Data Transfer)
.
3
Receive frequency and mode information from the
sub-receiver.
Upon receiving frequency and mode information that are
transferred from the sub-receiver, channel 0 of the quick
memory or VFO is updated according to the setting in step 2.
Configure the 2 transceivers that are connected to each
other to the same COM connector baud rate.
To prevent malfunction, reboot both transceivers after
configuring the settings.
When using this transceiver as a sub-receiver, configure
Menu [6-03]
TX Inhibit
to “On” to prevent erroneous
transmission.
The transceiver at the TX/RX end is able to receive the
frequency and mode information from the sub-receiver
even when it is in the frequency lock mode.
