Title: TS-2000/RC-2000 Meter selection
Post by: WA6ZTY on 2015-01-06, 02:17:39
Has anyone been able to switch the RC-2000 meter from Pwr to ALC or SWR via the RC-2000 and RemoteRig?  The instructions I received from Leo at Kenwood said to;

1.) Turn PROC to ON (C1 menu).
2.) Hold METER (B4 menu) down while pressing PTT.

This is said to cycle the meter function between Pwr, ALC, and SWR, but it isn't working for me.  Perhaps the sequence is not propagating thru the RemoteRig interface (or I'm just doing it wrong).

Since the radio is at the remote site, I'm unable to view the meter on the radio to see if it is changing, but I do know that the meter on the RC-2000 remains on Pwr.

It is working ok for me.

Press mic PTT down and hold meter button down for while. Start pressing meter button and you should see alc, comp, swr, pwr functions on the screen.

Hope this helps  8)

Thank you Juho!

It seems that your technique, to hold PTT down then press METER instead of holding METER while pressing PTT, is the correct one.  I'll pass that along to Leo at Kenwood.
