TCP control of Antenna Genius

K5XH

Can anyone tell me what the TCP command(s) are required to set the input port (1 or 2) to an output port (1-8) on a AGXL 8x2 switch? I have spent a few hours trying to figure this out with suggestions from Google/ChatGPT. I get various suggestions but none work. Some have a format similar to what is used to control the radio like "ant 1 sel=4". Some show "ant portA 4". Some show something like "C1|<code>. Another shows a long string of bytes like:

byte[] commandPayload = new byte[]{

0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x02,0x00,0x00,0x00,

0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x03,0x00,0x00,0x00};

I found the "Genius Series Communication Protocol" document but it makes even less sense.

Controlling the radio via TCP was relatively easy but the AG has me stumped.

6600, TGXL, PGXL, SmartSDR version 4.2.18, AGXL version 4.1.8.

Thanks,

Would be formatted as follows

C48|port set 1 rxant=5\n

Sequence number|port set (1for A or 2 for B) rxant=(antenna port number)\n (linefeed)

Setting rx antenna will set tx antenna, but you can also have a port programmed rx only.

Thanks David,

I will try this command format tonight.
