Interlock handling SmartSDR / AG 8x2

dk4dj

Hi,

i´m developing a device for controlling the AG 8x2 over LAN. Nothing special. I read the API document and the first tests went well.

My problem is now that my config on our clubstation seems to be something special.
On Port B of AG a Flexradio 6600 is attached and controls the AG during the network.

On Port A is a IC-7300 connected an the switching is done by PTP hardware switch.
We now want to replace this hardware switch by a microcontroller solution which reads the frequency from CI-V and send the necessary commands to the AG.
This is working good. Also a error message appears if the port is blocked by the Flexradio.

If the 7300 assinged to a port before this port is choosen by the Flexradio no TX interlock in SmartSDR will appear.

How can this be solved? I haven´t understand yet how SmartSDR and/or AG will handle this type of informations.
