RIGMEM(1) Radio Memory Operations RIGMEM(1)
NAME
rigmem - backup and restore memory of radio transceivers and receivers
SYNOPSIS
rigmem [OPTION]... [COMMAND]...
DESCRIPTION
Backup and restore memory of radio transceivers and receivers. rigmem
accepts commands from the command line only.
Keep in mind that Hamlib is BETA level software. While a lot of back‐
end libraries lack complete rig support, the basic functions are usu‐
ally well supported. The API may change without publicized notice,
while an advancement of the minor version (e.g. 1.1.x to 1.2.x) indi‐
cates such a change.
Please report bugs and provide feedback at the e-mail address given in
the REPORTING BUGS section. Patches and code enhancements are also
welcome.
OPTIONS
This program follows the usual GNU command line syntax, with long
options starting with two dashes (`-').
Here is a summary of the supported options:
-m, --model=id
Select radio model number. See model list (use 'rigctl -l').
-r, --rig-file=device
Use device as the file name of the port the radio is connected.
Often a serial port, but could be a USB to serial adapter. Typ‐
ically /dev/ttyS0, /dev/ttyS1, /dev/ttyUSB0, etc.
-s, --serial-speed=baud
Set serial speed to baud rate. Uses maximum serial speed from
rig backend capabilities as the default.
-c, --civaddr=id
Use id as the CI-V address to communicate with the rig. Only
useful for Icom rigs.
NB: the id is in decimal notation, unless prefixed by 0x, in
which case it is hexadecimal.
-C, --set-conf=parm=val[,parm=val]*
Set config parameter. e.g. stop_bits=2
Use -L option of rigctl for a list.
-x, --xml
Use XML format instead of CSV, if libxml2 is available.
-v, --verbose
Set verbose mode, cumulative (see DIAGNOSTICS below).
-h, --help
Show a summary of these options and exit.
-V, --version
Show version of rigmem and exit.
NOTE! Some options may not be implemented by a given backend and will
return an error. This is most likely to occur with the --set-conf
option.
COMMANDS
Backup and restore are supported for basic CSV file and XML format
where available.
Please note that the backend for the radio to be controlled, or the
radio itself may not support some commands. In that case, the operation
will fail with a Hamlib error message.
Here is a summary of the supported commands:
save Save all the content of memory in a CSV (or XML) file given as
an argument to the command.
load Load the content into all the memory from a CSV (or XML) file
given as an argument to the command.
save_parm
Save all the parameters of the radio in a CSV (or XML) file
given as an argument to the command.
load_parm
Load the parameters of the radio from a CSV (or XML) file given
as an argument to the command.
clear This is a very DANGEROUS command, as it will completely clear
out everything you have programmed in the memory of your radio.
ALL DATA WILL BE LOST. Use at your own risk!
DIAGNOSTICS
The -v, --version option allows different levels of diagnostics to be
output to stderr and correspond to -v for BUG, -vv for ERR, -vvv for
WARN, -vvvv for VERBOSE, or -vvvvv for TRACE.
A given verbose level is useful for providing needed debugging informa‐
tion to the email address below. For example, TRACE output shows all
of the values sent to and received from the radio which is very useful
for radio backend library development and may be requested by the
developers.
EXIT STATUS
rigmem exits with:
0 if all operations completed normally;
1 if there was an invalid command line option or argument;
2 if an error was returned by Hamlib.
3 the Hamlib backend has no memory support implemented and/or
the rig has no memory access available.
