communication may be a disconcerting factor with a paddle. Paddle EchoBack must be
checked (see also Winkey configuration).
Note
TRX-Manager (CLIENT) does not control your SERVER CW keyer directly ; it communicates with the
SERVER instance of TRX-Manager to control your keyer. This why configuring SERVER is important.
In addition, there is absolutely no relation between the configuration of SERVER and CLIENT (CW
setup are totally different).
SteppIR interface
The Misc tab of the Remote control interface allows controlling the Remote SteppIR antenna
with critical and basic commands. However synchronization with the Remote transceiver is
controlled by the SERVER computer only.
Synchro ports
SERVER: the Synchro ports of the SERVER computer are activated (or not) for linears,
antenna and other device provided the Synchro option is checked from the Preferences for
the Transceiver you use.
CLIENT: the Synchro ports (SteppIR excepted) of the CLIENT computer can be activated for
the Remote transceiver provided the Synchro option of the Remote TRX window is checked
and the Remote transceiver is the Operating transceiver. This may be useful for synchronizing
with third party programs...
Commands to LPT or RS232 Ports
Macro commands to any LPT and RS232 port can be sent to the SERVER station using
TRX-Command.
ALTERNATIVE SETUP (CLIENT): REMOTE TRANSCEIVER CONFIGURED
AS MAIN TRANSCEIVER
Configuring the Remote transceiver as main transceiver (CLIENT) was the recommended setup
in the previous versions of TRX-Manager. However, thanks to the concept of the Operating
transceiver, this setup is no more required for remote control and the Remote TRX window is
enough to control the remote station with the advantage of keeping full control over a local
transceiver.
However, if you don't have the use of a local transceiver at the same time as a remote
transceiver, you may prefer using the main interface for remote control.
Transceiver
Under Setup, you select REMOTE as "transceiver" WHATEVER the transceiver controlled from
the SERVER station! In that case the CLIENT station sees the remote station as a generic
"transceiver" and you can control the remote transceiver using standard commands from the
Monitoring.
The Remote TRX window is still available and additional controls (including macro commands)
