"Neither RST0; nor RST1; appear to clear the memorized settings so I suspect the Utility uses another command. Now I may have to find out what that is .... "
The utility commanded reset sequence appears to be: ; l; eeinit; KAT500 replies with its identity. "EEINIT (Clear configuration and frequency memories, SET only) SET format: EEINIT; erases EEPROM containing frequency memories, per-band settings and all configuration selections, including the current RS-232 speed. Configuration and per-band settings are formatted to default values during restart after a microcontroller reset. EEINIT; does not change the KAT500 serial number or its fault table. EEINIT; is ignored while the ATU is tuning or transmitting. EEINIT is used by the KAT500 Utility Configuration page Reset to Factory Defaults button." I expect the KAT500 could be reset with a terminal emulator but that would require KAT500 to be capable of receiving serial data input. It seems very unlikely to me that a serial port issue would be fixed by the reset, unless caused by an incorrect baud setting. 73, Andy, k3wyc ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
