Re: [Elecraft] Firmware Update TM Command

The command is useful for displaying the ALC level when you are using the radio 
remotely with appropriate software that supports it. Win4K3Suite will have this 
enabled in the next release. 73 Tom

I tried it via the Utility Command test.   It is for computer functions and not 
in the Radio Menu  or Config Menu.

Re: [Elecraft] Firmware Update TM Command

Bob

This is a macro command so does not appear in the config or menu.  Take 
a look at page 27 of the Programmer Ref.  You can use the command tester 
in the Utility to try it out.


Just for reference here is the Programmer Manual reference

TM (Transmit Meter Mode; GET/SET; K3/K3S only)
RSP format:  TM0;  (SWR/RF metering) or TM1;  (CMP/ALC metering). This 
sets the transmit meter mode for
the LCD bargraphs, as well as for the BG command (equivalent to using 
the METER switch). When TM0 is in
effect, BG returns the RF level. When TM1 is in effect, BG returns the 
ALC level.

K3 MCU 5.62 / DSP 2.88 / FPF 1.26, 11-16-2017

* NEW CONTROL COMMAND (TM):  The TM command sets or reads the transmit 
metering mode on the LCD. TM0; sets the bar graph for SWR/RF, while 
TM1; sets the bar graph for CMP/ALC. The TX metering mode also 
determines what is read by the BG (bar graph read) command during 
transmit. With TM0 in effect, BG reads the power level. If TM1 is in 
effect, BG reads the ALC level.
