TQ: Get/Set transmit state
Set: Sets transmit state: 0 = RX, 1 = TX. For example “TQ1;” switches QMX to transmit mode
Get: Returns the transmit state: 0 = RX, 1 = TX.
TX: Set the radio into Transmit mode immediately
Set: Command TX; immediately puts the radio into transmit mode. It is equivalent to TQ1;
VN: Returns firmware version
Get: Returns the firmware version. For example, VN; command returns VN1_05;
8.7.4 CAT monitor
The CAT command monitor is a very plain blank screen, whose only purpose is to scroll incoming
CAT commands from the CAT host, and the QMX responses. You will only be able to use this
screen if you have multiple serial ports connected – one (typically the main USB Virtual COM port)
to the PC host and one to a terminal (or terminal emulator on a PC, via a USB-Serial converter),
running the CAT monitor terminal application.
8.7.5 Log file
This application is very useful for debugging CAT problems. The log file is stored in the EEPROM
chip. The EEPROM chip capacity is 128 KB (Kilobytes). However the configuration parameters
also reside in EEPROM, so the available space for the log file is a little less. When the log file is
full, no further characters are written to it.
