SDRuno User Manual
9.9 Which parameters are synchronized
The following parameters are sent/received from SDRuno to/from the controlled device:
Omnirig
SDRuno
Note
VFO A frequency
VFO A frequency
If the controlling device has only one VFO, VFO A is used
VFO B frequency
VFO B frequency
VFO selection
VFO selection A - B
Modulation mode
Modulation mode
Optional
RX-TX status
RX-TX status
Mute the VRX in TX, see below
Note: if the controlled device is a transceiver or transmitter, putting it in TX mode causes the VRX to enter
a special mode: a yellow label “RF MUTE” shows up in the RX Control window, the MUTE button (AF
muting) is activated and a 60 dB attenuation is applied to the signal after the SP1 display (so that real
input levels are still shown) to facilitate AGC recovery. As the device exits TX mode the VRX returns to
normal mode. y
ou can use the key shortcut “T” to toggle the RX-TX modes of a synchronized
transceiver/transmitter (provided that the “SYNC VRX -> RIG” option is enabled, see below); this feature
can be useful also if there isn’t a synchronized device as it also toggles the RF MUTE status in the
relevant VRX.
9.10 Omnirig related VRX options
Several options control the VRX/Omnirig connection; they are VRX parameters and must be set on a VRX
basis. To access these parameters go to RX Control->SETT->ORIG.
9.10.1
RIG SELECTION
These buttons select the target device, RIG1 or RIG2. This setting also changes the name of the RSYN
button on the RX Control window to reflect the selection (RSYN1 or RSYN2).
Default: RIG1.
9.10.2
SYNC VRX->RIG
If checked, the controlled device is synchronized to the VRX (the device reflect changes made on VRX).
Default: checked.
9.10.3
SYNC RIG->VRX
If checked, the VRX is synchronized to the controlled device (the VRX reflect changes made on the
controlled device). You must enable this option to use the muting on TX feature.
Default: unchecked.
