DIAGNOSTIC AND IP DATA
ENTRY SCREEN
Note that we recommend you use and
familiarize yourself with transceiver
operation before getting involved with
parameter changes in this section.
In the initial screen on powering on the
transceiver, you will see a rainbow test
pattern screen and a WELCOME message.
There is a diagnostic screen that can be
accessed for checking encoder functions,
setting gateway and radio IP addresses for
remote operation, UDP port, a password to
prevent unauthorized users from gaining
access to your radio remotely, and a MAC
address.
To access the diagnostic screen – turn
transceiver power off. Press and hold the
RIT button. Turn power on, continuing to
hold the RIT button down until KEY IS

rainbow test pattern. Release the RIT
button and KEY WAS PRESSED will
appear, along with hexadecimal information
on the right side of the screen.
Encoder function can be tested by turning
the encoders. Each encoder (5 of them
including the main tuning knob) are labeled
A through E. Turn the main tuning knob
("E"). ENCODER E R or E L will appear
depending on whether you have turned the
encoder to the right or left. Hexidecimal
information for each encoder will be shown
to indicate the encoder is pulsing properly.
Press MNU while in the diagnostic screen.
A WELCOME message will appear with a
cursor, and five other lines for remote
operation functions will appear: GATEWAY
IP, RADIO IP, UDP PORT, PASS CODE,
MAC ADDR.
The WELCOME message is a 10 position
alphanumeric tag that can be used to
display your callsign or other information.
The blue cursor is moved by turning the
main tuning knob. To adjust each character
position, turn the MULTI knob.
GATEWAY IP, RADIO IP, UDP PORT,
PASS CODE, and MAC ADR are explained
in detail in the operation manual for the One
Plug GUI remote control software.
To save any changes made, press the MNU
button. To abandon any changes made,
press any other button. Note "abandon"
refers only to a highlighted item being
adjusted and does not return all settings to
the state they may have been in prior to
entering the diagnostic screen.
After saving changes with MNU, to exit the
diagnostic screen turn transceiver power off
and then back on again.
After changes have been saved by pressing
MNU, if you decide you want to make more
changes before powering off the rig, press
MNU again.
