I have answered Alan privately, but here is some general info. SteppIR antenna controllers have two modes of operation. 1. Passive Listener mode - follows frequency (receive only)
2. Full Control mode - follows frequency and allows bi-directional communication including mode control, homing and calibration. DDutil 1.5.7 has full SteppIR controls (rotor tab) including PowerSDR transmit inhibit when the antenna is changing frequency. 73, Steve K5FR http://k5fr.com/ddutilwiki/ http://groups.yahoo.com/group/DDUtil/ -----Original Message----- Does the SteppIR controller have commands (via the Serial Port) for these functions????? If so maybe Steve can add these function to DDUtil's rotor tap. I thought that generally the SteppIR was only in a passive listening mode. 73's nu6x Mark Sedona, AZ -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Alan NV8A Sent: Wednesday, June 04, 2008 6:37 PM To: FlexRadio Reflector Subject: [Flexradio] "Voting" for new features? Is there any way we can "vote" for new features other than by commenting on feature requests already posted? E.g., are there only two Flex customers using SteppIR antennas and wishing that the antenna's 180-degree, bidirectional and normal modes could be selected from PowerSDR? I commented on the original request, but there has been no other comment or any response from the programmer(s) indicating how feasible this is. 73 Alan NV8A _______________________________________________ FlexRadio Systems Mailing List FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexradio%40flex-radio.biz/ Knowledge Base: http://kb.flex-radio.com/ Homepage: http://www.flex-radio.com/ No virus found in this incoming message.
