| - | One feature that has been added - and NOT DOCUMENTED, is a serial port test routine. | ||
| - | |||
| - | To use, fire up a standard communications emulator program such as Procomm, etc. Set up for 1200/N/8/1 and the serial port you will use. Connect a standard modem cable - straight thru, not a null modem cable - between the computer serial port and the DB-25 serial connector on the Omni-6. | ||
| - | |||
| - | Hold down the "FM" button on the Omni while turning it on. | ||
| - | |||
| - | It will allow you to check for proper config on the serial input. | ||

| - | Pretty neat. TenTec always comes through! (Wish they had put it in the manual!) | ||

| - | This is correct. It only operates at 1200 baud. This serial port config test routine will work on the Omni-VI Plus or Omni-VI's that have been upgraded to VI+, but not the original Omni-VI transceiver. | ||
