S-meter readings
This is the delay between S-meter commands being sent to the radio and
the program attempting to read the signal level. It gives the radio time to
obtain the S-meter reading.
Downloading
This is the period of time between download commands and gives the radio
time to add previous data to local memory before the next arrives.
Uploading
This is the period of time between upload commands and allows the radio
time to prepare memory data for output to the computer.
Tuning
This is the delay between tuning commands and lets the radio finish tuning
before the next command arrives.
In all cases, you probably do not need to alter the default values that are provided.
If you have problems with frequencies being missed or data being corrupted during uploading/
downloading operations, try altering the delay settings.
You should try very small changes at first, usually by increasing the delays.
The setting of these delays can be very sensitive. If you do need to change
them, you may need to experiment very carefully with a number of settings. First make sure
you are adjusting the right control, then slowly alter it’s setting in very small steps until the
problem goes away.
If you want to restore the current default values before closing the dialog, click on
the Default push button.
