Hi,
I'm new to PropView and DXView and I have a couple of questions on PropView. First, under Conditions is Avail %. Can someone fill me in on what this is and where the information comes from. Second, under Transmitter is TakeOff. Is there a simple program to calculate this?

DXView 1.3.0 is available
Dave, AA6YQ
This release

- corrects the regression introduced in version 1.2.9, in which rotor control enable is not saved between DXView sessions - hides the rotor's Serial Port Interface panel if you select an ARSWIN controller (thanks, Pablo!) If you've already installed DXView, you can upgrade by downloading - store it in your DXView folder and execute it; you can then run the extracted DXView130.exe . Your online help will be updated by this process. 73, Dave, AA6YQ -----Original Message-----

I'm not sure what's happened exactly, but the program failure is definitely the result of some latent defect. Since I'm unlikely to replicate it here, tracking it down would require me to add some instrumentation to a version, have you run it and report results. That would narrow things down a bit, enabling me to add some more instrumentation for you to try. I'm guessing it would take 3 or 4 cycles to find the problem. The faster way to get you running again is probably to zap DXView's registry entries. I suspect that once of these has taken on an unexpected value, and that's what's activating the defect. Uninstalling and reinstalling DXView does not clear its registry entries -- either you must run the program REGEDIT and delete the entry manually, or I must write a little program that does that for you. If you've used REGEDIT before, I'll tell you what entry to delete. Otherwise, I'll write the program and send it to you tomorrow. Let me know... 73, Dave, AA6YQ -----Original Message-----

Re: DXView and ARSWIN
Ron,

Assuming that Dave has maintained the same functionality with the Arswin rotor as he has with the Yaesu, you should be able to fix that by defining an appropriate "Rotor offset" in the config window. If you are asking for 35 and getting 129, it sounds like you need an offset of -94. Mine is set to -166 because the North American version of the Yaesu rotor uses 0 to mean 180 degrees and I had a 14 degree error in the way my beam is positioned on the mast. Appropriately defining the offset puts it right on the mark. ---- 73, Rich - W3ZJ -----Original Message----- |

-I have it works Dave there is one smal problem but i think thats a
calibration problem if i ask JA6 that is 35 degrees he going to 129 so that is it with LOGGER no problem then he is o.k. perhaps i must do calibration but then i must when i change to logger from DXView. must see what i can do. Ron |
