Transceivers: Overview and Settings
TRX-Manager can configure up to four transceivers (Setup: TRX1 to TRX4 tabs).
Definitions
Up to four local transceivers (+ one remote transceiver) can be used at the same time:

One Transceiver is called Main and is controlled from the Monitoring window. The Main
Transceiver can be selected from the Transceiver menu.

The other three Transceivers are called Sub-Transceivers and are controlled from the
Sub-Transceivers panels. Not all Transceivers are supported as Sub-Transceiver.

The Operating Transceiver is the one activated for the various modules of TRX-Manager.
By default, at start-up, the Main Transceiver is the Operating Transceiver but a
Sub-Transceiver can be defined as the Operating Transceiver at any time during a session
(see below about the Operating transceiver). The Remote transceiver can be configured
as the Operating transceiver as well.
The Main Transceiver has a comprehensive support while a Sub-Transceiver or a Remote
transceiver only supports essential functions and programmable macros. Synchronization, Drag
and Drop is possible between transceivers. OP function, support of SO4R mode (Single
Operator Four radios) provides great flexibility in the use of five transceivers at the same time.

Operating transceiver =TS-590
When transmitting
There is no function in TRX-Manager to protect a transceiver in receive mode while an other is
transmitting. You must switch it OFF manually!
Setting up your transceiver
For each Transceiver, from Setup/TRX1..4 , you define the type of Transceiver, the Serial
Port and select the communication Speed. For some transceivers DTR or RTS case must be
checked but more often this option is only required to power on the RS232 interface and not
to support a communication protocol.
If you use an ICOM, please fill in its address, fill in the number of memories and check C00
if the channels are numbered from #00.
