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... 73, Dave, AA6YQ --- In dxlab@..., "kg0ft1" <ffurland@...> wrote: Is there anyway to get Commander to automatically put this rig into

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?

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?

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. 73, Dave, AA6YQ --- In dxlab@..., "kg0ft1" <ffurland@...> wrote: No joy.

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?) 73, Dave, AA6YQ --- In dxlab@..., "kg0ft1" <ffurland@...> wrote: For the first time, I got an error message box:

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? Fred

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? 73, Dave, AA6YQ --- In dxlab@..., "kg0ft1" <ffurland@...> wrote: I have rtty set to AFSK, USB, and the xcvr mode is USB also.

I'm clicking one of the "select" buttons to transfer to the frequency assigned to that button.
I also set up a User Defined Command Sequence to turn on the data mode. I get another error message -- Command: Tranceiver Command rejected/Raw/29 August 200711:52:40
