WxToIMG control

Usage Questions
1

Hi there,

Wondering if there is a way that I do not see to control wfview from wxtoimg software. This last only offers wxctl as external control which seems to be a kind of client/server config but can’t find details on how to setup this. Anyone tried and possibly succeed to control wfview from wxtoimg ?
Thanks

Hi,

You can automate frequency changes in wfview using the rigctl command. Make sure to enable wfview’s built-in rigctld-compatible server and note the port number first.

Now using rigctl you can command the frequency, which can be scripted pretty easily.

I looked at wxctl and I’m not really sure what it does. But you can definitely automate wfview to change frequencies.

I try to install virtual COM port so that WxToIMG can send its data there, they I can probably pickup these data with Python and send them reformatted to rigctld
Investigating…
