Radio Port Manager

The Radio Port Manager screen can be accessed from the Setup menu by selecting Radio Port Manager.

The Radio Port Manager screen shows you all configured radio ports (although recently added ports will not be displayed until you re-start PE Pro).

Columns are:

  • ID - the radio port number1 (see note below)

  • Radio Port Description: port number, device name, RS-232 port used for PTT control of the radio, and 'Friendly Name' as assigned in the Wizard or on the Port Properties screen.

  • Status - enabled or disabled.

Working with Radio Ports:  Add, Delete, Edit, Tuning Aid

To change a PE Pro port's properties, first select (highlight) the port in the Manager's list and then use the Edit menu or the tool bar icons
This tool bar appears only when the Radio Port Manager screen is open.

Menu Item            Icon     Action

New Port                      Start Port Setup Wizard

Delete Radio Port          Delete the highlighted port -- careful!

Edit Port                      Open the Port Properties dialog for the highlighted port

Tuning Aid                  Open the Tuning Aid (sound card ports only)
 

Note 1  Because Windows starts numbering from zero (0) and not one (1), Windows and application programs may recognize a PE Pro radioport by a different number. What is PE Pro radioport #1 may be seen as port #0 by Windows and programs. Likewise, radioport #2 may be seen as #1, etc.
