KAT500 commands

Is there a GET command for either the K3 or KAT500 that will show when the tuner has completed a tune?

Harlan,

I don't believe that is available on a real time basis (which is what
you apparently are seeking).

Yes, the K3 knows when the KAT500 has stopped tuning, but it is not
available as a GET command.

Thanks Dick, but I don’t see that command in either programmers reference manual.

So Don, there is no way to programmatically know when the tuning has completed?

Re: KAT500 commands

Harlan,

If you have software that will poll the KAT500 with the TP command then
it may be close to real time, but not exactly.

It is in the latest KAT500 Serial Command Reference, and requires V1.42 or later firmware in the KAT500.
