RF Gain control doesn't work with SmartControl

edited April 2020 in Maestro
I have a Flex 6400M, and also a separate Maestro, both running 3.1.8. I've been playing around with using the Maestro in SmartControl mode to change some of the options on the session I've got running on the 6400's front panel. Everything seems to work well, except that the RF Gain control (accessed via the slice antenna selector on the Maestro) does nothing! The slider moves, but levels don't change at all, and I've confirmed by snooping in the API that nothing is being updated.

If I create a separate session with its own slice on the Maestro (non SmartControl) then the RF Gain control there does operate, so this seems to be a SmartControl issue.

    I don't have an external Maestro Andrew, but I do have a Flex 6400M and I just noticed that when using the 6400M in SmartControl Mode I am unable to change the RF Gain on the windows SmartSDR Client. This prompted me to come here and see if others have had this issue. I was happy to see your post, but discouraged no one had replied back to it. Do you have any further info on this Andrew?

    May be a good idea to submit a helpdesk ticket so that the issue gets logged and prioritized.

    I just checked mine and it works fine. Any reason you haven't updated to v3.1.12?

    @ka9ees 3.1.12 wasn't released back in April.

    Sure is. What made you assume I'm not running it?
