RIGCTLSYNC(1) Hamlib Utilities RIGCTLSYNC(1) NAME rigctlsync - synchronize a rig to SDR# (or other rig) SYNOPSIS rigctlsync [-hlLuV] [-m id] [-r device] [-R device] [-s baud] [-S baud] [-c id] [-C parm=val] [-B] [-v[-Z]] DESCRIPTION Allows you to synchronize frequency from a rig to SDR#. Best when used with rigctld, FlRig, or a multiport radio. Please report bugs and provide feedback at the e-mail address given in the BUGS section below. Patches and code enhancements sent to the same address are welcome. OPTIONS This program follows the usual GNU command line syntax. Short options that take an argument may have the value follow immediately or be sepa- rated by a space. Long options starting with two dashes (`-') require an `=' between the option and any argument. Here is a summary of the supported options: -m, --model=id Select radio model number. See model list (use "rigctlsync -l"). Note: rigctlsync (or third party software using the C API) will use radio model 2 for NET rigctl (communicating with rigctld). -r, --rig-file=device Use device as the file name of the port connected to the radio. Often a serial port, but could be a USB to serial adapter. Typ- ically /dev/ttyS0, /dev/ttyS1, /dev/ttyUSB0, etc. on Linux, COM1, COM2, etc. on MS Windows. The BSD flavors and Mac OS/X have their own designations. See your system's documentation. The special string "uh-rig" may be given to enable micro-ham de- vice support. -R, --rig-file2=device Use device as the file name of one of the virtual com ports -- your program will connect to the other com port of the virtual pair. -s, --serial-speed=baud Set serial speed to baud rate. Uses maximum serial speed from radio backend capabilities (set by -m above) as the default. -S, --serial-speed2=baud Set serial speed to baud rate for virtual com port (see -R). Uses maximum serial speed from radio backend capabilities (set by -m above) as the default. -c, --civaddr=id Use id as the CI-V address to communicate with the rig. Only useful for Icom and some Ten-Tec rigs. Note: The id is in decimal notation, unless prefixed by 0x, in which case it is hexadecimal. -L, --show-conf List all config parameters for the radio defined with -m above. -C, --set-conf=parm=val[,parm=val] Set radio configuration parameter(s), e.g. stop_bits=2. Use the -L option above for a list of configuration parameters for a given model number. -u, --dump-caps Dump capabilities for the radio defined with -m above and exit. -l, --list List all model numbers defined in Hamlib and exit. The list is sorted by model number. Note: In Linux the list can be scrolled back using Shift- PageUp/Shift-PageDown, or using the scrollbars of a virtual ter- minal in X or the cmd window in Windows. The output can be piped to more(1) or less(1), e.g. "rigctl -l | more". -n, --no-restore-ai rigctl restores the state of auto information (AI) on the con- trolled rig. If this is not desired, for example if you are using rigctl to turn AI mode on or off, pass this option. -B, --mapa2b Maps set_freq on VFOA to VFOB instead. This allows using CW skimmer with the rig in split mode and clicking on a frequency in CW skimmer will set VFOB to the transmit frequency. -v, --verbose Set verbose mode, cumulative (see DIAGNOSTICS below). -Z, --debug-time-stamps Enable time stamps for the debug messages. Use only in combination with the -v option as it generates no output on its own. -h, --help Show a summary of these options and exit. -V, --version Show version of rigctl and exit. Note: Some options may not be implemented by a given backend and will return an error. This is most likely to occur with the --set-conf and --show-conf options. DIAGNOSTICS The -v, --verbose option allows different levels of diagnostics to be output to stderr and correspond to -v for BUG, -vv for ERR, -vvv for WARN, -vvvv for VERBOSE, or -vvvvv for TRACE. A given verbose level is useful for providing needed debugging informa- tion to the email address below. For example, TRACE output shows all of the values sent to and received from the radio which is very useful for radio backend library development and may be requested by the de- velopers. EXIT STATUS rigctlsync exits with: 0 if all operations completed normally; 1 if there was an invalid command line option or argument; 2 if an error was returned by Hamlib.
