7 message support
●
(pin 2= Abort, pin3 – pin6 = DVK 1- 4, 4+5 = DVK 5, 4+6 = DVK 7, 4+5+6 = DVK 7)
Live Status:
Shows the current TX Focus, RX Focus and STEREO status
RED 1 circle represents RADIO1 and GREEN 2 circle represents RADIO2
Semi-automatic focus control:
When checked, RX Focus will follow TX Focus if TX focus is manual and RX Focus is "Auto." Any focus
command from the logging program will be ignored while TX Focus is in Manual (Radio 1 or Radio 2).
OPERATION
TX logic: MK2R supports two modes of operation - first one wins or
last one wins. In first one wins, transmitting on one radio will lock
out transmission on the second radio. In last one wins, beginning
a transmission on one radio will abort a transmission in progress
on the other radio.
Dual foot switch: MK2R has two foot switch inputs.
If "Dual foot switch" is selected, the foot switch attached to FS1 controls RADIO1 and the foot
switch attached to FS2 controls RADIO2. If Transmit Auto Focus is enabled, pressing a foot switch
will override the currently selected transmit focus - for example, pressing FS2 with RADIO1 selected
will move transmit focus to RADIO2 while the foot switch is closed. When the foot switch is
released, MK2R returns to the auto focus state in effect before pressing the foot switch.
If "Dual foot switch" is not checked the foot switch inputs act in parallel.
SO2R mode: If checked, simultaneous transmission on both radios is not allowed. When not checked,
the radios can transmit at the same time.
Warning: You are violating contest rules and etiquette if you
enter a single operator or multi-operator single transmitter class
with the SO2R mode disabled. ALWAYS observe contest rules !!!
Disable band lock (in band SO2R): In order to prevent accidentally transmitting with both radios on
the same band, MK2R will normally inhibit transmission when both radios are on the same band or
data from one radio is lost.
WARNING: Disabling band lock may result in damage to the transceiver front end.
