KAT500 Macro via the Kpod

Michael Blake
I have not been able to determine if a Macro can be sent from the K3s to the KAT500 via the AUX cables.  My goal is to send the following commands:

SWH16;DE255;T;

Which are intended to put the K3s in “Tune”, wait 255 ms and the put the KAT500 into the “Tune” mode.  These are to be sent via the Kpod.

Is this possible?

It cannot.  The ACC cable caries a very terse form of the K3's VFO frequency on AUXBUS and the four band lines. Macros come via the RS-232 serial port.

What you might try is a cable from the KAT500 "tune" connector to the K3's straight key line, then use the KAT500 ATU TUNE button to key the K3. This works if the K3 is in CW.

Sorry,
Dick, K6KR

That was what I was afraid of Dick.  Thank you very much for the confirmation.

Someone said that they had two pods. I wonder about using two on the same K3...button addresses issue...cable in parallel? Is the data open collector active low?
Maybe he had two K3s.😀

OK for KAT500 but in terms of sending macros to the P3 via the Kpod ?

Re: KAT500 Macro via the Kpod

Cady, Fred-2
Hi Dany,

1.1    Mixing Transceiver and Panadapter Commands
A single macro sequence of Programmer’s Commands can control both the transceiver and its panadapter.  That is, K3S/K3 and P3 commands, or KX3 and PX3 commands, can be in the same macro.
Mixing both K3S/K3 and P3 or KX3 and PX3 commands can only be used in P3/SVGA or PX3 macros.  P3 and PX3 commands cannot be used in K3S/K3 or KX3 macros.

All should remember that the KPOD does NOT store or generate macro commands.  What it does is activate macros that are stored in the K3(s).

Cheers,
Fred
