Create a slice receiver. See SmartSDR Supported Modes for a complete list of supported modes

C[D]<seq_number>|slice create [freq=<MHz>][pan=<streamID>][ant=<antenna_port>][mode=<mode>][clone_slice=<source_slice>]

<MHz>          = frequency in MHz, up to 15 significant digits
<streamID>     = stream identification
<antenna_port> = antenna designator: ANT1, ANT2, RXA, RXB, or XVTR
<mode>         = alphanumeric mode designator: usb, lsb, cw, am ...
<source_slice> = slice to be cloned

Example:

C21|slice create freq=10.0 ant=ANT1 mode=usb

   <slice_rx> = the slice receiver number assigned to this slice receiver        

Response Example:

R21|0|2|OK Slice receiver 2 created on 10.000 MHz on port ANT1

Returns the frequency error of a slice. Slices are tuned using a set of digital tuning elements that can be slightly off-frequency. This command will report the known difference in the requested and actual frequency. Note that this command is only useful if the radio is GPS locked or locked to a 10MHz reference. The result does not take into account any drift in the internal OCXO or TCXO. Note that the FLEX-6500 and FLEX-6700(R) use a PLL master oscillator with a very narrow loop bandwidth (10Hz) that will have around a 3-4 cycle-per-minute sinusoid that will modulate the receiver and transmitter. Typical error induced by the oscillation is in the vicinity of 3mHz peak-to-peak. Long-term averaging should null out this error (v1.10.8 and later)

C[D]<seq_number>|slice get_error <slice_rx>

<slice_rx>    =  the slice receiver number that has the error.  Slice receivers are numbered starting with zero (0)

Example:

C21|slice get_error 0

Remove (delete) a slice receiver

C[D]<seq_number>|slice r <slice_rx>

<slice_rx>    =  the slice receiver number to be removed.  Slice receivers are numbered starting with zero (0)

Example:

C19|slice r 0

Responses

Response Example:

R19|0||

Tune the slice receiver to a new frequency

C[D]<seq_number>|slice t <slice_rx> <frequency> [autopan=<0|1>]

<slice_rx>    =  the slice receiver number to be removed.  Slice receivers are numbered starting with zero (0)
<frequency>   =  the new frequency for the slice receiver specified in MHz
autopan specifies if panadapters should be tuned to keep slice in view

Example:

C12|slice t 1 14.2055

Retrieve a list of slice receivers currently enabled. Note that the single letter after the slice command is a lower case L, not a number one.

C[D]<seq_number>|slice list

Example:

C41|slice list
