[P3] [Px3] Display Text Decoding on the screen

Hello,

I am considering to buy additionally to my Kx3/Px3 Combo a K3/P3 Station.
After reading the P3 manual up and down I found no way to switch on text
decode display on the P3 screen without installing P3SVGA.

Did I miss something or do I have to buy the additional option.

Hajo,

You must buy the P3SVGA to obtain the text display.

Hello,

And a big thank you to all who have responded and saved me a lot of money.

The Kx3 and the K3 without waterfall etc. are in my eyes part of the fun
which I don't want to miss anymore. So I thought that the wealth of
features on the Px3 would be implemented on the P3 too, but obviously not.
I would not like to have an additional computer running to get e.g. the
decodes. So I will patiently wait until the Px3 features are implemented in
the P3. Until then I use my Super combo.

The option displays on an external SVGA display. You can not display decoded text on the P3, ever.

Thanks Walter and the others,

So this explains the performance differences between Px3 and P3 .
I don't want to miss the functionality of the Px3, so I fear I have to
shovel a longer time money into the corner to fulfill my dream.

Hi Hajo,

As far as I know (I do not have a K3/P3) the SVGA-card is an addition to
the P3 that enables connection of a separate monitor.
To my knowledge there is no need for a running computer.

Hajo,

If you have not concluded by now from the various posts, the text decode
for the P3 does not appear on the P3 display. With the P3SVGA option,
text can be displayed on the attached SVGA display, and keyboard text
will also be displayed and transmitted. You do not need a computer,
just an SVGA monitor.

In reply to this post by Nr4c

Can we get a little more in-depth technical explanation as to why the P3 can't display decoded text on its TFT-LCD display? Neither the P3SVGA nor PX3 decode text. They simply display text characters already decoded by the K3 and KX3, respectively. Why can't the P3 write the text decoded by the K3 to its TFT-LCD display? Is the P3 MIPS/memory-challenged?

Small matter of programming.

There's plenty of code space, but just one lonely guy--Paul--tackling the wish-list, working in the bleak silence of the after-hours, armed with a keyboard and a slice of stale pizza but without so much as a small dog to keep him company. I can try slipping him an extra can of Jolt, but no guarantees.

Thank you, Wayne. On a related topic ...

What's the history of the PX3SVGA (i.e., an internal SVGA large screen adapter for the PX3) or lack there of?

Hi Joe,

The hooks are in place, but I can't say for sure that we'll offer one.

Wayne,

If you are looking for interested parties, I for one would be interested — also along with that mythical BIG amplifier if you ever get the itch again — hi hi
