K2 - Is there a way to permanently set the AI1 Parameter?

[Elecraft mailing list]

I have an external amplifier that can follow the band changes on the K2 by reading the frequency data from the serial output.
To enable this the command AI1; needs to be sent to the K2 first.

The issue is that if the K2 is powered off the command AI1; needs to be resent again at power up since it will not survive a power cycle.
 Is there a way to permanently set the AI1 Parameter?


If not it appears a solution may be to program a small micro controller to send that command upon power up (with a small delay).

Thank you.

Doesn't the amplifier have a mode in which it interrogates the connected rig for specific parameters such as IF, FA, and FB?   If it does, you can forget about AI mode.

 The amp just watches the line.
