Re: PILINBPQ RIG CONTROL


 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

RESOLVED

After beating this to death, I discovered that the problem was the parameter specification.
The documentation shows in the scan lines section...

F1-F3 - IF Filter for ICOM Rigs

So I was using..

RADIO 7 14.1075 LSB F1 W
Sorry?-?Set?Mode?Command?Rejected

A bit lower there is a different format for command line entry

RADIO Freq Mode Filter eg RADIO 14.112 USB 2 (ICOM)? ...note No "F"

Now If I send...

RADIO 7 14.1075 LSB 1 W0
Frequency?and?Mode?Set?OK

Now, all the parameters are accepted.

The fields in a RADIO command (unlike scan lines) should be separated by spaces - RADIO 7 14.105 LSB F1W

Hi All

I'm having some trouble trying to set up Rig Control using PILINBPQ VER 6.0.23.63

Radio is ICOM IC-756PROIII

It appears that the only parameter that gets sent to the radio is the frequency, when I issue...

RADIO 7 14.105,LSB,F1,W

Frequency changes OK, but SB remains USB, and nothing else changes.

My port configuration, so far...
;
;? Port 7? SCS PTCII USB
;
PORT
?PORTNUM=7
?ID=PACTOR
?COMPORT=/dev/ttyUSB1
?SPEED=19200
?DRIVER=SCSPactor
?PORTCALL=VA7RBP
?INTERLOCK=1
?CONFIG
?RIGCONTROL
?/dev/ttyUSB2 19200 ICOM IC756 6E

?PSKA 140? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?; PSK TX Output level.
?FSKA 100? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?; TX Level for FSK modes.
?PAC BAUD R300
?SCANFORROBUSTPACKET 7

ENDPORT

Is this a bug in pilinbpq, or do I have a config issue?

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
