The controller supports control of the transmitter PTT using software switches. Disabling a transmitter PTT will cause the PTT front panel LED to flash when the transmitter would normally key. Here are macros for enabling and disabling transmitter #1 PTT:
; 6140*, Port Control: Transmitter PTT Disable MPW 20 6140 DD 63 0112 0 * ; TX1 PTT Disable MPW 29 6140 DD 63 0113 0 * ; TX1 Untimed Unkey ; 6141*, Port Control: Transmitter PTT Enable MPW 20 6141 DD 63 0112 1 * ; TX1 PTT Enable MPW 29 6141 DD 63 0113 0 * ; TX1 Untimed Unkey
Sometimes you want to turn off a receiver that is feeding one or more paths. In version 3.3.1 and newer versions of the firmware, there are new Receiver Enable/Disable Software Switches. Disabling a receiver will cause the COR and CTCSS front panel LEDs to flash. Here are macros that disable receiver #1 COR and PTT inputs:
