P3 Commands in a K3 Macro?

Is there any way I can send commands to the P3 as part of a K3 macro? If not, maybe this could be included in a future firmware update?

Re: P3 Commands in a K3 Macro?

I probably should have expanded a bit further on the request. It would be nice to be able to send some of the P3 commands via a K3 MACRO. For instance, when setting up a SPLIT macro to match a-b VFO's, turn split on and send B up 1 or more KHz, it would be nice to be able to turn on Marker B on the K3 and set it to B's current frequency after the split setup. That way, if you see which edge of the pileup is being worked, it would be much easier jut to shift the marker a bit and tap the button rather than having to turn it on, dial it to where you want it and then hit the button. If it was possible to send the commands in the K3's macro that could be handled automatically and when you "Un split" you could also turn Marker B off to put it back the way it was.

Re: P3 Commands in a K3 Macro?

You can do it with the macros that are built into K3 Utility or P3
Utility. With either program you can combine K3 and P3 commands in the
same macro.
