746 Pro and Commander


kg0ft1
 

Is there anyway to get Commander to automatically put this rig into SSB
- digital mode? Instead of doing it manually? (And forgetting to do so
most of the time and wondering why I'm not heard? Age-related problem
I'm afraid.)

Yes. Assuming you are using WinWarbler with Commander, you can
establish a startup macro for PSK and/or RTTY that automatically
switches your transceiver when direct WinWarbler to begin operating in
those modes. WinWarbler's <xcvrmode: usb> macro command will place your
transceiver into USB mode. If the <xcvrmode> command doesn't support
the mode you have in mind, you can use the <xcvrcommand: hexcmd> macro
command to send any valid CI-V command.

If you need more details, let me know...

Hi Fred,

This is a really great feature of WinWarbler. And you don't have to stop at just your rig's mode. I have WinWarbler set my rig's bandwidth, agc setting, reset my RF gain, and PBT offset (if required) with these startup macros.

I think I do this just to demonstrate my ignorance.

I've looked at all the help files and can't figure out where to put
the startup macro. And I've done a search of this group, too.

I got WW to put the 746Pro into USB using <xcvrmode: usb>.

I can't get it into data mode, however. The manual says the format for
CI-V commands is -- FE FE 66 E0 Cn Sc FD.
FE FE is the preamble; 66 is the xcvr's default address; E0 is the
controller's default address; Cn is the command number; Sc is the
subcommand number; and FD is the ending.

The command number for send/read DATA mode is 1A. The subcommand
number is 06 -- 0=off; and 1=on.

I set it up to read -- <xcvrcommand: FE FE 66 E0 1A 16 FD>

Questions:

Did I write the xcvrcommand correctly?

Do I state the macro as <xcvrmode: usb> <xcvrcommand: FE FE 66 E0 1A
16 FD> all on one line?

There should not be spaces between the hex digits:

<xcvrcommand: FEFE66E01A16FD>

(I don't have a transceiver with me and so haven't tested this

Here's something -- I erased the WW startup macro <xcvrmode: usb> and
it still puts every freq chosen by Commander in USB. I replaced the
macro with <xcvrmode: lsb> and it still goes to USB.

Now what am I missing?

The correct command for placing your 746pro in Data mode is

<xcvrcommand: FEFE66E01A0601FD>

I added this to my PSK startup macro (suitably modified for my 7800's
CI-V address) and it works correctly -- whenever I switch to PSK,
Data mode is enabled.

To disable data mode, use

<xcvrcommand: FEFE66E01A0600FD>

No joy.

Here's what's happening -- from the time I first entered <xcvrmode:
USB>, WW has put the radio into USB -- even after I deleted the macro.
Any idea why this is happening? From that point on, no macro I entered
(for example, <xcvrmode: LSB> has had any effect. Only thing I can
think of is that there might be someplace or something else I need to
change.

By the way, haven't heard anything from the 746Pro group which is
disappointing.

For the first time, I got an error message box:

Commander: Transceiver command rejected
Set mode
29-Aug-2007 8:33:35

This happened when I put the data mode command you gave me
<xcvrcommand:FEFE66E01A0601FD> in the RTTY startup macro, changed WW
to RTTY, and then changed freq in Commander.

By the way, I assume the 0 in the macro is a zero and not the letter o?

Each of the four operating modes supported by WinWarbler -- PSK,
RTTY, CW, and Phone -- lets you specify the transceiver mode to be
used via a panel on its tab in the Configuration window. For example,
the Configuration window's PSK tab provides a "Transceiver mode" sub-
panel, and the RTTY tab provides a "Modulation and transceiver mode"
panel that lets you choose between AFSK and FSK operation, and
specify the transceiver mode to be used.

When you select a new operating mode by clicking a button in the Main
window's Mode panel, WinWarbler first directs Commander to switch to
the transceiver mode you've specified on the operating mode's
Configuration tab. Then, it checks to see if a startup macro has been
defined for that operating mode; if so, it executes the commands in
that startup macro.

So if you've configured WinWarbler to use "USB" when operating PSK,
then including an <xcvrcommand: FEFE66E01A0601FD> in your PSK startup
macro will result in your tranceiver be placed in USB with data mode
enabled whenever you change operating modes to PSK.

Well, that's progress -- at least you know the RTTY startup macro is
being executed.

What transceiver mode do you have WinWarbler configured to use when
you are operating RTTY? (On the Config window's RTTY tab, in
the "Modulation and transceiver mode" panel, which combination of
AFSK/FSK and sideband have you selected, and to what is this
combination's "Xcvr Mode" selector set?)

I have rtty set to AFSK, USB, and the xcvr mode is USB also. And I
have the command <xcvrcommand: FEFE66E01A0601FD> as the RTTY startup
macro. What I find interesting is that when I first go to RTTY from
PSK31 in WW, the xcvr goes to data mode in USB. But when I change freq
in Commander, data mode drops out and I'm left in USB only.

And I just discovered that going to PSK from RTTY it does the same
exact thing.

If you enable data mode, it remains enabled until you disable it.
Unless you also have <xcvrcommand: FEFE66E01A0601FD> in your PSK
startup macro, I assume that's why data mode remains enabled when you
switch from RTTY to PSK.

When you say "when I change freq in Commander, data mode drops out",
how are you changing frequency in Commander when this happens?
