F- APPENDIX:
a) Morse code messages –listed by priority and operation:
Power-up messages:
OK startup message: Sent on power-up and re-set- This will be heard each time TuneMatic is powered
up, and after memories have been cleared.
BY autotune bypass: TuneMatic in auto tune bypass mode, disabling automatic SWR tune function.
I I unit initialized: TuneMatic has been initialized. This message will be heard after the “OK” startup
message, and after TuneMatic has gone through the initialization process.
Initial movement and initialization:
IN Initializing: TuneMatic entering initialization mode. This message is heard after pressing the
Initialization (IN) button.
CL Current limit: Antenna reached current limit. This message will be heard if antenna is moved into the
ends of travel for the motor, and motor has reached the current limit point, as determined by the current limit
DIP switch settings inside the TuneMatic chassis. It is also heard when the upper and lower limits have been
reached during initialization.
PE Pulse error: No pulses detected during motor movement. This message will be heard if TuneMatic
fails to detect any motor pulses during movement after initialization. This error will force TuneMatic to de-
initialize.
IC Initialize complete: TuneMatic has completed the initialization process.
RI Reinit: TuneMatic is reverting back to un-initialized state. Typically created if pulsecount or current
limit failure has occurred after TuneMatic has been initialized, or if TuneMatic lost power during antenna
movement.
PA Parking: Antenna parking. Message will be heard any time TuneMatic is placed into a park mode,
either manually or automatically.
LL Low limit: Antenna at lowest “soft” antenna limit position.
HL High limit: Antenna at highest “soft”antenna limit position.
Either message indicates antenna has reached travel limit. It will not travel past these limits once
TuneMatic has been initialized.
Storing and memory operations:
MM Memory write: Valid memory store in progress. This message will be heard upon any successful
write to memory once a successful STORE or autotune event occurs.
PWR Power error: RF power out of range/no power. This message will be heard if you are attempting to
store or autotune TuneMatic with too little/no or too high power (5-35w). Make sure radio RF power is within
this range.
FR Freq error: Transmit frequency out of range or no frequency read. This message will be heard if you
are attempting to either store or tune TuneMatic outside the operational frequency range (1-60 mHz), or no
frequency data is read.
