Hi Michel,
Ok, thanks for testing, and nice to hear the synthesizer 'drive'
works properly again.
You wrote:
- According to me, sentence "Select another comport to turn
off PTT" is wrong and confusing.
Maybe the intention is to emphasize 'after selecting another COM
port, the PTT is initally off" because that's what the function
calls in the PTT dialog window, after "OK", are doing.
The new serial port, if any, is not saved, therefore the correct
port number has to be set in setup.txt
The serial port is opened at launch time if the Synthesizer
checkbox is already checked. Sometimes it's better to
open the port just before outputing data and release it when
done, sometimes not ( ie bluetooth serial port)
So we will have the option "leave the serial port open" or "close
after switching from TX to RX" added in the configuration.
IMHO, 'setup.txt' should describe the synthesizer hardware but not
the port to which it is connected (on a particular machine). Here,
for example, windows has the bad habit to assign different COM port
numbers for the same hardware (an old 'Prolific' USB<->RS-232
adapter), depending into which USB port / hub / etc it is plugged :
"COM4 today, COM5 tomorrow" :o)
73,
Wolf .
