16 CONNECTING PERIPHERAL EQUIPMENT
RTTY EQUIPMENT
Use the ACC 2 connector to connect to the RTTY equipment. Connect the RTTY key output line to pin 2 of the
ACC 2 connector. Connect the demodulation input line of the RTTY equipment to pin 3 of the ACC 2 connector
{page 95}.
Note: Do not share a single power supply between the transceiver and the RTTY equipment. Keep as wide a separation as possible between the
transceiver and the RTTY equipment to reduce noise-pickup by the transceiver.

HF LINEAR AMPLIFIER
Connect an external transmit power amplifier to the REMOTE connector (1 male REMOTE connector
(E07-0751-XX) is supplied). Switch ON the linear amplifier control relay via Menu No. 28A.
The TX/RX relay response time is 10 ms when you have selected CW Full Break-in and 25 ms when you have
selected CW Semi Break-in.
Note: The TX/RX control method differs, depending on external amplifier models. Some amplifiers enter the TX mode when the control terminal is
grounded. For those amplifiers, connect pin 2 of the REMOTE connector to the GND terminal of the amplifier and connect pin 4 of the connector to
the control terminal of the amplifier.

ANTENNA TUNER
Use the ANT 1 and AT connectors to connect an external antenna tuner. If you connect the external tuner to the
ANT 2 connector, the external tuner will not function.
Note: While using an external antenna tuner with the TS-2000(X)/ TS-B2000, you cannot use the 6 m band to transmit. Connect your 6 m band
antenna to the ANT 2 connector.
