Try checking RTS (RTS High). If CAT RTS in the rig is "Enable",
it expects RTS High in order to send data from the rig to the
computer. Otherwise set CAT RTS TO *disable* in the rig.

Tony,
What interface are you using between the computer and radio?
The "new" Yaesu rigs expect RTS handshake - if you have a "real"
serial port or USB to serial converter with a cable that has all
9 wires set RTS="ON". If you don't have "all 9" - or at least
2-2, 3-3, 5-5, 7-7 and 8-8, go into the rig's menu as set CAT
RTS to *disable*.
The "new" Yaesu rigs also have a time-out timer on the CAT line.
Go into the rig's menu and set CAT TOT to *at least 1000*.
Those those two settings seem to be the key to a lot of Yaesu
CAT issues.
