IF: Get transceiver information (TS-480 format).
Get: Returns a composite information string containing the state of the transceiver, as follows
(excluding command ID and ; terminator character):
• 11-digit operating frequency (VFO A or B, according to the VFO mode setting and transmit/
receive state
• 5 spaces
• 5-digit RIT frequency, as +/-9999Hz e.g. RIT up 200Hz returns “+0200” in this field
• RIT status: 0 = RIT OFF, 1 = RIT ON
• XIT status: always 0 because QCX+ has no XIT
• Memory channel bank number: always 0
• Memory channel number: always 00
• Transceiver status: 0 = RX, 1 = TX
• Operating mode: always 3 (CW)
• Receive VFO: 0 = VFO A, 1 = VFO B
• Scan status: always 0
• Split: 0 = Simplex operation (VFO mode A or VFO mode B), 1 = Split
• Tone: always 0
• Tone number: always 0
• Space character
MD: Get/Set operating mode
Set: Set to 1 to set Lower Sideband (LSB) or any other value to set Upper Sideband (USB)
Get: Returns 3 (CW) if the mode is Upper Sideband (USB) which is the normal mode. Returns 1 if
the mode is Lower Sideband (LSB).
Q0: Get/Set TCXO reference frequency
Set: Set TCXO reference frequency. Only values between 24999000 and 25001000 are allowed.
The setting is for the current operating session only and is not written to EEPROM.
Get: Get TCXO reference frequency.
Q1: Get/Set Sideband
Set: Set sideband; 1 sets Lower Sideband (LSB), any other value sets Upper Sideband (USB). The
setting is for the current operating session only and is not written to EEPROM.
Get: Get sideband; 0 = USB, 1 = LSB
Q2: Get/Set default operating frequency
Set: Set default operating frequency. The value IS written to EEPROM.
Get: Get default operating frequency.
Q3: Get/Set receiver Gain
Set: Set receiver gain. The setting is for the current operating session only and is not written to
EEPROM.
Get: Get receiver gain. The default value on Factory Reset is 5000.
