[Repeater-Builder] Re: RC-1000 Controller question

[frostbitnome]

You refer to lock and unlock, though the manual makes no reference
to this terminology, which would be self explanatory. I then guess
lock/unlock is Control Code enable and Control Code disable? Do I do
the Control Code Enable, go do the Repeater Disable, and thus the
repeater would be off? Then, Control Code Disable to finish?

To get to the CW IDer, Control Code Enable, do the CW work, then
Control Code Disable?

On the right track? 

Couldn't this be a little simpler?

Thanks, and let me know if I am close to understanding..

 The above is from the RC-1000 manual.  This means that you have to
enter 
 the two unlock codes in the proper sequence to do any of the 'A' or 'D' 
 functions.
 
  Repeater enable  4100  A_ _
  Repeater disable 4101  A_ _ 
 
 
 To enable the repeater, issue the A__ code (whatever has been
programmed 
 in with the 4100 command).  Remember to unlock the controller before 
 entering the code.  To disable the repeater, unlock the controller and 
 then enter the A__ code that was programmed with the 4101 code.
 
  External ID en/dis   4140  D_ _ 
 
 
 With the controller unlocked, enter the code that was programmed for
the 
 4140 function (Dxx) to switch to external ID.  We used this to allow 
 EchoLink to ID a repeater and stop our ID from propigating down the 
 EchoLink connected station.
 
  CW ID timer interval4076 _ _ @3C = 8 minutes
 
 
 Or you could set the CW ID timer interval to 00 to disable the CW ID.  
 ie, with the controller unlocked, issue the command 407600.  The 3C 
 value would set the ID interval back to 8 minutes.
 
 Remember to lock the controller with the lock code when you are
finished.
 
 The controller will respond with a low-high tone when a function is 
 turned on, and with a high-low tone when it is turned off.
 
 I hope some of this helps -

I guess I should not have introduced the 'lock' and 'unlock' terminology 
Nate, but you are on the right track.  There are a lot of different 
controllers and some use the lock/unlock terms and it just stuck with me 
- HI.  Yes - to protect some of the controls from casual changes by 
designated control ops, Ron put those commands behind the master 
programming control protection.  So to do the commands you are 
interested in, you have to issue the two 'control code enable' codes to 
get to the point where you can change the setting you are after.  Then 
use the control code disable code to finish.

Actually, some controllers use a more complicated method of security 
than the RC-1000.  For instance some of the NHRC controllers require you 
to enter the special programming code every time you enter any command.  
So the RC-1000 is not too complicated.  And the NHRC controllers are not 
complicated either, once you get used to the programming method.  The 
CAT controllers use a similar method to the RC-1000 but only one long 
sequence is used to enter the master programming mode.  They place some 
of the commands behind a simpler control op code to allow multiple 
control ops to help but not have complete control of the repeater.

Good luck on your controlling efforts.
