Importing a file
The Programmer can Import data from delimited text files. These files can be created
using the Export feature of the Programmer for another radio, Travel Plus for Repeaters
by ARRL, commercial spreadsheet programs, or text editors.
Limitations for use of another commercial spreadsheet program include:
·
The spreadsheet program will know none of the limitations of the radio. It
will allow you to enter any value in any space. You will have to enter transmit
and receive frequencies, CTCSS tones, and DCS codes carefully to be
sure they are imported correctly to the radio.
·
You will need to organize your data carefully. The Programmer will import all
the items from a single column as the same thing. This can cause an odd
split to be entered as Simplex or a non-standard offset to be ignored.
The easiest way to begin a text file for your Programmer is to Export a file from the
Programmer first. In that exported file, you will see column headers for the details that
the Programmer expects to import. You will also see the format of the information. You
can edit or add to this file with any commercial spreadsheet program or text editor.
Note: The new features of the Programmer include the ability to enter
a series of channels by entering just a beginning frequency and the
number to be entered, column editing, copy and paste of one or
multiple rows of data, rearrangement of columns, hiding columns that
need not be edited, and automatic completion of data based on band
defaults for a frequency entered. Given that the Programmer is
designed for the data of the radio, you might find editing in the
Programmer easier than using another spreadsheet program.
The file to be imported must contain, at a minimum, Receive frequency to define a valid
memory channel. The Programmer will fill the rest of the details for that channel with
defaults just as if that frequency had been entered.
The Programmer makes no assumptions about the information available. If a piece of
information is omitted, the Programmer imports the memory as a simplex channel and
fills other fields with defaults.
Although this process is very valid for transferring data from one radio Programmer to
another and for using the data from other sources such as ARRL Travel Plus, it is not
recommended for original file creation. It can be tedious getting all the information into
the file to be imported just like the Programmer wants it. Let the Programmer help you
