You should be able to restart the VP with the @@Cg command in the "Additional Message Window" in WinOncore12. The total command string is: @@Cg01<enter>. Note that with the VP this must be done after every receiver default or SelfTest. Rick Hambly's SynTac/TAC32 software is smart enough that it does this automatically, but WinOncore12 was built after the VP's were pretty much gone. NOTE that WinOncore12 is pretty much useless if you are running a 6 channel receiver or an 8 channel VP in 6 channel mode as about the only 6 channel message it understands is the @@Bb satellite report. For this you need to use Rick's software or find an OLD DOS version of the Motorola software. You will also encounter trouble trying to run a lot of the more esoteric 8 channel messages that the VP supported. WinOncore12 has no idea about what to do with these. Once again, Rick's software will come to the rescue.

Running WinOncore12 under WinXP I can talk to the module ok, enter location info and get it to return it's ID etc, but other than that I can't get it to do anything. I've discovered from the VP command set that it goes into idle mode after a self test and needs a "position fix mode" command to put it back into "fix" mode. Unfortunately, although the module acknowledges the command it reports that it's still in idle mode. I'll dig out a DOS PC later, and try an earlier version of the software, but if anyone's come across this before I'd be grateful for any tips as to how I can kick it back into life again. regards Nigel GM8PZR _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there. _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
