New USB Cables function not working for Acom 600S and 04AT tuner

Using the most recent version of SmartSDR that shows the following new features - "USB Cables Adds new CAT Commands: Three new CAT commands (MD, RX, TX) have been added to the USB Cable feature to support ACOM600s and Tuner 04AT."    

The new MD command does not appear to be working - I assume the new commands were put in to enable the auto tune function of the 04AT tuner when using an Acom 600 or 1200 amp by pushing the TUNE button on the Amp front panel.  I received an email back from Val at Acom (he is very helpful) stating that he thought Flex was making a change to make this happen.  My assumptions may be wrong but I am assuming that the new CAT commands were put in place to make this happen.  If I am wrong can the purpose of the 3 new commands for the Acom products be explained.

    Hi Erik, I just posted this problem to my group. Now I have seen your message. That helps me alot! Thanks for that!! My additional problem is that after the timeout via the CAT interface, the frequency goes to zero and the Flex 6400 or the Smart SDR software freezes. Do you know that, too? I can't use my 6400 at the moment :-( Best 73 de Lutz DL4FCJ
