Documentation for KENWOOD.EXE version 1.0
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
KENWOOD.EXE is a MSDOS Amateur Radio Control program for the Kenwood(TM) series
of tranceivers (TS-711A-E, TS-811A-E, and TS-940S). It is designed to automat-
ically sense the type of equipment and activate all standard features as well
as those unique to a particular model. Todate the software has only been test-
ed with the TS-811A. Reports of abnormal behaviour as well as suggestions for
enhancements would be appreciated.
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
A. Required equipment:
1. Kenwood interface kit (ie. IF-10A/IF-10B).
2. Kenwood interface kit IF-232C.
3. Applicable Kenwood transceiver.
B. Known bugs:
1. Software fails to initialize equipment at times during startup. The
solution is a very simple fix that will be implemented later. Anyhow
it is not a major problem. Just restart the program and everything
should start up immediately.
2. If commands are given in a way that confuse the transceiver the
crt display gets all screwed up. I added a command to refresh screen
to minimize the impact. Read the transceiver manual before attempting
to use the equipment. This software does'nt protect you from cockpit
errors.
