Ed,
The switch emulation commands provide a method of activating functions
for which there are not yet "direct" commands. In many cases both
methods are available. For example, you can turn the preamp on/off
with a switch emulation, which toggles, but there's also a separate
command for this that sets it either on or off.
Please refer to the K3/KX3 Programmer's Reference for the full list of
commands. If there are specific cases where a new direct command would
be desirable, please let me know.
73,

IMHO there is a big need for a command that can be use to define
things back to the same state. One big rule in programming is you
always set the state of things so you are always dealing with a
known starting point. The command structure in the K3 does not
permit this.
A number of things in the K3 are toggle, for example in MIC SEL 1
toggles the mic back and forth from high to low and 2 toggles for
bias on or no bias. There are a number of other instances of this
in the K3.
Not having a command to define things back to the same state, lets
call it a default or reset state makes the programming commands in
the K3 pretty weak IMHO.
