Logikey K-3 KEYER
4
Q Queue - toggles the input queue on or off. The keyer confirms the new mode by sending "ON" or
"OFF" as appropriate. When off, message button activations are acted upon immediately, canceling
any message in progress. When on, up to 8 button presses are remembered in order and acted
upon in succession as each message completes.
R
ddee
Range - programs the speed range covered by the pot, with a range of 5 – 60 words per minute.
Sets the current operating speed to
dd
WPM, where
dd
is the low setting, and
ee
the high setting. A
command of RØ545 would set a range of 5 to 45 words per minute, and the present position of the
pot would determine the keyer speed within that range. Control via the knob is linear and increases
speed clockwise.
T
dd
Tone frequency - Available range is 500 - 990 Hz, where
dd
is the first two digits of the desired
monitor frequency.
V
d
Emulation - allows the operator to select emulation of the timing characteristics of other keyers. See
EMULATION later in the manual.
W
dd
Weight - sets to code weight to
dd
percent, where
dd
are two digits in the range 25 to 75. Weight is
the duty cycle of a continuous string of dots, which is 50 % for perfect code. A higher weight produ-
ces a heavier sound, and a lower weight causes characters to sound lighter. Once set, weight re-
mains constant and independent of speed.
X Xmit (tune) - Continuously keys the output for purposes of transmitter and amplifier adjustment.
Tuning is stopped by simply tapping either the dot or dash paddle lever.
Z
d
Zeros and Nines: controls the way that zeros and nines are sent in a contest style serial number. See
SERIAL NUMBER OPTIONS.
INQUIRY FUNCTIONS
Inquiry functions allow the current state of the keyer to be determined. State information is played to the
operator in Morse code with the monitor automatically enabled and keying output disabled. Inquiries operate
just like command functions: to enter an inquiry, momentarily press the right two buttons (#5 & #6) simul-
taneously. After receiving the "?" reply, enter the desired inquiry command as follows:
A Inquire Auto-space - the keyer responds by sending "ON" or "OFF" as appropriate.
B Inquire Bank - setting the keyer sends the current operational banknumber, BØ, B1, B2, or B3.
F Inquire Function Speed - the keyer sends the current function speed setting in WPM as two digits.
K Inquire Keying Compensation - the keyer compensation in milliseconds as two digits.
L Inquire Load mode - the keyer responds by sending "C" if in character mode or "R" if in real-time
mode.
N Inquire Number - the keyer plays the current contest serial number (but does not increment it).
Q Inquire Queue - the keyer responds with "ON" or "OFF" as appropriate.
R Inquire Range - the keyer sends the current operating speed range in WPM as four digits with a
pause between the slow limit and the fast limit.
S Inquire Speed - the keyer sends the current speed setting in wpm.
T Inquire Tone - setting for monitor - the keyer sends the current monitor tone setting.
V Inquire Emulation Setting - the keyer sends the current emulation. See EMULATION.
