- Added option to set rig's frequency from TRXControl window by clicking Frequency display. That will open TEdit column where frequency can be typed in as MHz value and then confirmed with enter. Other way to do this is to use mouse wheel while mouse cursor is over frequency edit reading. Then one wheel step is 100Hz. If Shift key is pressed at same time step is 1kHz. If Crtl key is pressed at same time sep is 10KHz and With both Shift and Ctrl keys pressed one mouse wheel step is 1MHz Unlike typing and pressing enter, mouse wheel has immediate effect to rig frequency. There is no need to confirm with enter. Just move mouse cursor away from frequency display, or press any mouse button will close frequency edit - Changed same rules also for ROTcontrol manual azimuth input. There steps with mouse wheel are 1 degrees, 10degrees with Shift key and 100degrees with Ctrl key. - Fixed Rotor control left/right buttons to turn with current speed (parameter "-1") Previous setting was "1" the lowest speed. This has effect only with rotators that have turning speed control. - Changed rig model "Hamlib Dummy" setting. Now Dummy forces "Run rigctld at program start". Released also Dummy (#1) blockout from uRigcontrol.pas/InitializeRig. Having possibility to use Hamlib Dummy can sometimes be handy when testing, or making qsos with rig that does not have CAT control. - Fixed help files. Squashed commit of the following: commit5f077c2d4dAuthor: OH1KH <oh1kh@sral.fi> Date: Thu Feb 3 11:36:34 2022 +0200 fixed rotor control to use current speed with left/right turns instead of smallest speed. Affects only rotots that have speed control. commitfba4d50a7eAuthor: OH1KH <oh1kh@sral.fi> Date: Thu Feb 3 11:31:13 2022 +0200 small fixes commit1a64ec9f12Author: OH1KH <oh1kh@sral.fi> Date: Thu Feb 3 11:15:02 2022 +0200 Added same functions to Azimuth as TRXControl frequency settings.

TRX Control window Shows current frequency and buttons allow change of Band, mode, memory and rig. Additional selections are User defined buttons, Power buttons, Vfo A and B buttons and memory information field.
|
|
<br>When pressing band selection button rig moves to that band using predefined frequency of currently active mode. Default frequencies and User buttons can be defined in <a href="h1.html#ah7">preferecences/TRX control</a>.
|
|
<br><br>You can select rig vfo with buttons <b>A</b> and <b>B</b> but there is no feedback what vfo is currenty used as Icom brand rigs do not support "Get_vfo" command.
|
|
</p><a name="m4"></a><p>If <b>M_up</b> or <b>M_dwn</b> are pressed or memory is selected by double click of memory list, the information text will show up to <b>Mem Info</b> field. If frequency is changed manually after that info text will disappear.
|
|
<br>If memory does not have info text (max 25chr) just <b>x of y</b> is displayed where x refers to memory order in Add/Modify memory list and y total amount of memories.
|
|
<b>None</b> (in red) indicates that there are no memory lines.
|
|
<br>With <b>P-on/off/stb</b> buttons current rig can be set ON, OFF or STANDBY (if it supports rigctld power commands).
|
|
<br>Default setting for power buttons is hidden. You can change it via dropdown menu "Preferences".
|
|
<br><br><b>M_up</b> and <b>M_dwn</b> buttons select next/previous entry from memory list. <b>M_Wri</b> adds entry to memory list from current rig frequency and mode and info field shows<b> "MW ok"</b>.
|
|
<br><br>You can change rig frequency by clicking frequency display. Then you can enter a new <b>MHz value</b> and press enter.
|
|
<br>You can also use mouse wheel to change frequency. One wheel step is 100Hz, Keeping <b>Shift key</b> pressed the step is 1kHz. Keeping <b>Ctrl key</b> pressed the step is 10kHz.
|
|
Keeping both keys pressed the step is 1MHz.
|
|
<br>If you use mouse wheel the rig frequency is changed while turning. There is no need to press enter then. Just move mouse cursor away from frequency display.
|
|
|
|
<br><br><b>NOTE!!!</b> <br>Check <b>pereferences/TRXcontrol/Switch only between mode related memories</b><br>Cqrlog TRXcontrol memories are categorized by mode (groups). CW, SSB(=AM+USB+LSB+FM), RTTY(=RTTY+DATA+PKTLSB+PKTUSB+PKTFM)[no mode selector for PKT* but you may "M wri" them anyway].
|
|
So do not wonder if you get smaller amount of memories than in your list when pressing <b>M_up</b> and <b>M_dwn</b> with "Show mode related" checked.

|
|
<br>You can set rig by double click of an memory row in <b>Open memory list</b>. Similar action happen also in <b>Add/Modify memories</b>. The differense is that you can keep
|
|
<b>Open memory list</b> open while loggeing qsos etc. Where as <b>Add/Modify memories</b>, when open, blocks other functionality.
|
|
<br>While <b>Add/Modify memories</b> is open you can use buttons in right frame. Texts of buttons are quite self explaining.
|
|
<br>Deleting a memory line, or all lines, do not have any further warning questions (Are you sure?). In case you deleted something wrong just close window with <b>Cancel</b>. No changes are recorded then.
|
|
<br>Closing <b>Add/Modify memories</b> is done with buttons <b>OK</b> or <b>Cancel</b>. Closing <b> Open memory list</b> window must be done using <b>x</b> at top right corner of window.
|
|
<br> <b> Open memory list</b> closes also if <b>Add/Modify memories</b> is opened. They can not be open at same time.
|
|
<br><br> If you make changes to <b>preferences/TRXControl</b> after that just select another radio (even if not existing) from radio buttons <b>Radio 1</b> , <b>Radio 2</b>. Then select back the previous radio and new values are read. It is possible also reload settings from <b>NewQSO/File/Refresh TRX/ROT control</b>.</p>

From NewQSO/Window you can open <strong>Rotor control</strong> window.

Window shows current position of rotor with <b>numerical display, Short and Long path Buttons and radio buttons to select rotor 1 or rotor 2</b>.
|
|
<br>User can resize window and select <b>additional bar display, direction and stop buttons</b>.
|
|
<br>Small numbers on top of bar display shows current rotor limits. Usually this is 0..360, but may be also -180..180 depending on rotor model, or other user defined limits.
|
|
<br>Direction drive buttons run rotor until stop button is pressed or maximum 15sec time limit is reached.
|
|
<br><br> When a call is entered to <b>NewQSO</b> callsign field and cursor is moved away from that field <b>DXCC info</b> part gets filled against call prefix and/or locator grid,
|
|
then, when <b>DXCC/AZIM</b> shows a value, it is possible to press <b>Short Path</b> or <b>Long Path buttons</b> and your ro
|
|
tor will turn your antenna to that direction.
|
|
<br><br>It is also possible to set new direction by a click on <b>Azimuth display</b>, type a new direction value and press <b>Enter</b> or use <b>mouse wheel</b> to select degrees.
|
|
<br>One wheel step is one degree. If you keep <b>Shift key</b> pressed while turning mouse wheel the step will be 10 degrees. If <b> Ctrl key</b> is pressed instead step will be 100 degrees.
|
|
<br>If you have used mouse wheel it is enough to move mouse away from Azimuth reading to get rotor turning. No enter keypress is needed then.
|
|
<br><br>Pressing <b>Stop button</b> stops rotor turning started either with path or turn buttons.</p>
|
|
<p>Progress bar displays Az value relative to AzLimits (if Use \dump_state is checked in preferences) so do not wonder if it in some cases may look different than numerical true direction display.
|
|
<br>If error message is received from rotctld button area turns red. If requested turn command is ok, but az_min or az_maz limits change requested direction from true direction
|
|
(then antenna may not always reach requested direction) button area will turn yellow as warning sign.
|
|
<br>The length of color flash depends on poll rate and is error permanent or not.
|
|
<br>
|
|
<br>If you make changes to <b>preferences/Rot Control</b> after that just select another rotor (even if not existing) from radio buttons <b>Rotor 1</b> , <b>Rotor 2</b>. Then select back the previous rotor and new values are read. It is possible also reload settings from <b>NewQSO/File/Refresh TRX/ROT control</b>.</p>
