------------------------------------------------ CIVPROG 2.00 ------------------------------------------------ CIVPROG can set the operating frequency of an ICOM (or Perseus) receiver, according to a table you can load, modify and save on a CSV file. Select a line, the relative frequency will be set on the receiver according to the AUTO, TIMING, SCAN or SCHEDULE mode. Set a frequency on the receiver, if that frequency is in the table it will be automatically selected. Lines with UTC time (hhmm-hhmm) specified will have a color indicating if the station is currently active. This can be useful even when CIVPROG is connected with no receiver. You can use .CSV files "ready-to-use" (as the EiBi schedule, available at the same GuindaSoft RADIO page), you can edit existing .CSVs (i.e. with the freeware GuindaSoft Lister), you can create new .CSV files directly with CIVPROG. ------------------------------------------------ How to use ------------------------------------------------ - load the CSV file and edit the frequencies (double-click to edit the data) - save the file - press the "Settings" button - select the receiver (if not in list, select "IC-generic") - select the RX address (the default value is set by selecting the receiver) - select the COM port of the PC - select the baud rate - save pressing OK - press the "Connect" button --------------------------------------------------------------- Dialog Box "Operating Frequency" --------------------------------------------------------------- It is possible to show and modify the Frequency and the Mode set on the receiver.
