CONTROL COMMANDS
The transceiver’s operating frequency, mode can be remotely controlled using a PC.
The Icom Communications Interface V (CI-V) controls the transceiver.
Set the “CI-V address,” “CI-V Baud Rate,” and “CI-V transceive” function in the Initial set mode.
(Refer to the basic manual.)
When you remotely control the transceiver, use a CT-
