All antennas and the the required output configuration (active outputs) are defined on the Antennas sub-tab.
The number of antennas that can be is not limited. New antennas can be added using the Add button and old
antennas can be deleted by first selecting them (orange background) then clicking the Remove button.
To make the antenna list more readable, the selected antenna can be moved with the Up/Down buttons. The order of
antennas is unimportant – it only makes the list easier to understand if antennas are grouped logically by band or
function.
Each line in this tab represents a separate antenna. For every antenna there are several fields.
ANTENNA NAME: Full name of the antenna up to 10 characters long used for SM display and for further configuration.
LABEL: Short antenna abbreviation up to 5 characters long for SM display in compressed mode.
A1-10, B1-B10: The outputs from PORT A and/or PORT B defined as ANT outputs on the Outputs tab are shown here
in columns automatically sorted from A1 to A10, B1 to B10. Only ANT class outputs are shown. Select
those outputs that must be active when particular antenna is chosen.
RX only:
Flag for any antenna which is "receive only." SM will not allow transmitting into this antenna.
SteppIR:
This flag indicates that this antenna is a SteppIR AND is controlled from the Station Master serial port using
the SteppIR native protocol. Do not check this box if the antenna is controlled using Icom CI-V protocol .
ROTATOR: This flag indicates this antenna is rotated by the rotor which is controlled by Station Master's internal
rotor controller. Do not check this flag if the antenna is on rotor that is not controlled by this Station
Master.
