ent commands
available for control
of the transceiver.
R-5000 has 19 commands.
These commands
may be incorporated into a computer
program written in BASIC or any other high level language
such as PASCAL, etc.
Programming methods vary from
computer to computer so please refer to the instruction
manuals included with your terminal program, and com-
puter.
5-3. Commands
The illustration below demonstrates
that a command
is
composed
of two alphabetical
characters, various para-
meters, and the terminator to signal the end of the com-
mand.
Example:
Paeuu07000000 ;
|..........5..
Command
to set
VFO A to 7 MHz.

Parameters

5-3-1. Command description
A command
may consist of either lower or upper case al-
phabetical characters.
5-3-2. Parameter description (Refer to the parameter
list.)
Parameters are used to specify specific information neces-
sary
to implement
the
desired
command.
The
exact
number
of parameters
necessary
for each command
is
predetermined.
If a particular parameter is not applicable
to the transceiver you are controlling the parameter digits
should be filled using any character except the terminator
sagen
Pe
For example the MC (Memory channel selector) command
uses two parameters,
1 column
to specify the memory
bank number, and 2 columns to specify the memory chan-
nel number.
To specify CH9 of memory bank number
1,
the command would be:
"M6109 ee erGce
The memory bank number is not ne-
cessary when programming the
TS-440S, R-5000 so the command
could be as given above "MC109" or
as:
"MC
O92 ah. 40.5.2
In this case a blank has been used to
fill the parameter block for the mem-
ory bank number.
The following are examples of bad commands:
Bet er ee
No memory bank specification (not
enough parameters)
FAG
ee ceteage cates
Not enough digits in the memory
channel parameter, i.e. CH9 should be
given as "O09".

Unnecessary characters between pa-
rameters.
