DXLab Suite control, send mode USB-D when chaging frequency

Unread post by dm2kg »

Hi,

I want to control RUMlogNG and the connect TS590SG via the DX Laub Suite TCP connection.

If works, but when I send:
<command:10>CmdSetFreq<parameters:23><xcvrfreq:10> 7.047,500

RumLOG send the Frequency command to the rig, but also "MD2;DA1", so it changes the mode to USB-DATA; I think it should not.

This also prevents my from using "Mode None" in WSJT-X's radio settings...

Am I missing something here?

Best regards, fantastic program!

RUMlog supports only a subset of the CAT commands, required for the WSJT-X operation. RUMlog sets always the mode you have selected for PSK.

ok, understood.
Maybe RUMlogNG could also get an option to not change the mode in the future.

Thanks a lot!

Why? What’s your operating scenario?

I want to sync and control my TS-590SG (controlled by RUMlogNG) with several more external programs via TCP/IP, mainly for keeping external SDR receivers in sync.

I tried the DX Lab Suite interface (mode switching trouble) and the xmlrpc interface (cannot get the right "double" format with python3 xml-rpc lib).

What other possibilities are there to control RUMlogNG and the rig via TCP?
Or do you have some sample code for controlling via Xml-Rpc?

Thanks a lot,

Getting TRX data out of RUMlog is easy using Applescript or the UDP broadcasts.
For controlling the TRX via RUMlog I could add some Applescript or DXLab Suite Commander commands.

that would be perfect!

DX Lab Suite preferred, but then I still have the changing mode...

not much needed:
- set freq / get freq
- set mode / get mode
