Start radio without SSDR

James Whiteway
edited June 2015 in New Ideas
How little do you need to connect to your radio without SSDR?
How about this:


using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.Threading;
using Flex.Smoothlake.FlexLib;

namespace PanadapterTest
{
    public partial class Form1 : Form
    {
         private Radio _thisRadio;
        private Slice _thisSlice;
       // private Panadapter _thisPanadapter;
   
        public Form1()
           
        {
            InitializeComponent();
            API.RadioAdded += API_RadioAdded;
            API.RadioRemoved += API_RadioRemoved;
            API.ProgramName = "PanadapterTest";
            API.IsGUI = true;

            API.Init();
           
           
        }

        private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {

            CheckForIllegalCrossThreadCalls = false;
        

        }


        private void API_RadioAdded(Radio radio)
        {

            _thisRadio = radio;
           
          
           

        }
        private void API_RadioRemoved(Radio radio)
        {


        }

        private void radio_PropertyChanged(object sender, PropertyChangedEventArgs e)
        {


          

        }

        private void radio_PanadapterRemoved(Panadapter pan)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("radio_PanadapterRemoved fired
");
        }

        private void radio_PanadapterAdded(Panadapter pan, Waterfall fall)
        {
            
            Console.WriteLine("radio_PanadapterAdded fired
");
           // pan.PropertyChanged += panadapter_PropertyChanged;
          
         

        }
        private void panadapter_PropertyChanged(object sender, PropertyChangedEventArgs e)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("panadapter_PropertyChanged fired
");

        }

        private void radio_SliceRemoved(Slice slice)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("radio_SliceRemoved fired
");
        }

       

      
        private void radio_SliceAdded(Slice slice)
        {

            slice.PropertyChanged += new PropertyChangedEventHandler(slice_PropertyChanged);// makes freqtxtbx show freq from SSDR
          
            _thisSlice = slice;
           

          


        }

        private void slice_PropertyChanged(object sender, PropertyChangedEventArgs e)
        {
           
            {

              
              
            }
        }
        private void btnExit_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            API.CloseSession();
            _thisRadio.Disconnect();
            Application.Exit();
        }

        private void btnConnect_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {

            _thisRadio.Connect();
            double freq = 10.000d;
            string RXA = "Ant 1";
            string Mode = "AM";
            //RequestPanafall gets the radio to send data to the client

            Slice Slice0 = new Slice(_thisRadio);
            Slice0 = _thisRadio.CreateSlice(freq, RXA, Mode);
            Slice0.RequestSliceFromRadio();
           // _thisRadio.RequestPanafall();
          


        }

       

    }
}




Two buttons and a form. Once connected, the radio will go to WWV @ 10Mhz. (Walt's idea)
Although not in this example, I am working on getting the Panadapter data and creating a panadapter as well. Once I figure the correct syntax for subscribing to the PanadapterDataReady event!
But, I thought someone out there would like to see how simple it really is just to get connected. After that, it does start to get complicated. (my testbed program is much more busy than this)

Edit: I forgot to add, be sure to ADD REFERENCES to Flexlib and the other dll's that are part of Flexlib.

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
