CW responses to commands entered serially:
By now you may have noticed that most commands provide both a CW and a serial response. You
can control whether or not you get responses to the commands you enter serially with command
050. Using that command you can tell the RLC-4 to send the responses out any port, more than one
port, or nowhere at all. Normally it sends them out port one, so if you haven't heard the CW yet,
you can hook up and transmitter to port 1, enter serial commands, and hear the CW responses.
Using a serial upload file:
A very convenient way to set up your controller if you have a computer is to type all of the
commands that you use to set up your controller in a file using a word processor. Save the file in
ASCII (plain text) format. Load your communications program and make sure you are talking to
the RLC-4 by hitting return and checking for the "DTMF>" prompt. Now do an ASCII (plain text)
upload of the file that you saved all of your commands in (the controller won't know that you are
doing an automatic upload, it will just think you are typing fast). Test the stuff you uploaded and if
you want to make a change, go back to your editor and change it in the file. Now upload it again.
By setting up your controller this way, you have a permanent record of everything you have done.
If something ever gets messed up on the controller, all you have to do is initialize it (see Appendix
D) and re-upload your file. Also, when you get a new version of software (which will almost
always require you re-initialize), you will probably only have to make minor changes to your file to
make it work with the new software version. This will definitely save you time in the long run.
There is no way to download all of the information in the controller to a file, so it is best to
create the file as you go.
An example will illustrate the idea:
Using your favorite editor, enter the following (including the comments):
; this line is a comment - put a description of the file here
045 05 0
;Turn off the CW responses to serial commands
000 1 2
;Connect ports one and two
007 1 1
;Turn DTMF muting on for port 1
; put other commands here
045 05 1
;Turn on CW responses to serial commands to port 1
030 24 20
;Send the CW 'OK'
Save the file as RLC4.CMD or some other name of your choice.
Load your communications program.
Hit <Enter> and watch for the "DTMF>" prompt from the RLC-4. If you do not
get it, check your cable and setup in your communications software.
You may want to tell your communications program to open a log file at this point.
It will come in handy for checking if any of the commands caused errors.
Start an ASCII upload of your file.
Wait until it finishes.
Close the log file if you opened one.
Try out your new settings. 009 will check the crosspoint and 007 will check the
DTMF muting. Go back to your editor, make the required changes, and repeat the cycle.
