The USB ports are for updating the firmware.? And from what I can tell, there isn’t an update yet.? One USB is for updating the main unit and the other one is for
updating the detachable head unit.
Just bought a NIB 6000 at a recent hamfest, trying to get it set up before putting it in the mobile. Having perused the owners manual and researched online, I see virtually no information
on the two USB ports. I connected the port on the main chassis to a win10 laptop, but it isn't recognized. I tried loading Prolific drivers from the Yaesu website for earlier models, still not recognized. I don't have the connector or an RS232 port to connect
to he data port (yet). Should have a workable cable and port here later this week.
My question is, what are these two ports for? Strictly updates?
Maybe I missed something in the manual, but I didn't even see them mentioned, though the one on the chassis is marked DATA with a small switch under it marked NORMAL and UPDATE. The one on the control head is marked DATA but no switch. Are these for updating
firmware only, or is the ADMS software supposed to communicate with them?
TIA -
