Slow to respond frequency display
Julio Peralta
I’m not sure if the adding of my IC-9700 to Commander has anything to do with the slow response of the frequency window in Commander but I’ve just noticed that commander may take as much as 10-15 seconds to update when I move the VFO knob on my radio.
I’m pretty sure it wasn’t like this before I setup the second radio.
I’ve tried disabling the second radio but that hasn’t affected the slow response of the Commander frequency window. BTW Commander acts the same way if the IC-9700 is selected as the active radio.
I’ve verified that Commander C-IV has been added to the Windows Defender ignore list. What else could be causing the sluggish response?

Only 2 radios connected Ic7851 through C-IV and 9700 using the usb All command intervals are set to 100 + OK. Please doing the following: 1. Configure Commander to control your IC-7851 2. Set your IC-7851's to 14005 in CW and wait for Commander's Main window to display this frequency and mode 3. On the Configuration window's General tab, check the "Log debugging info" box 4. Monitor the "time-to-the-second" displayed in the title bar of Commander's Main window; when the seconds change from 59 to 00, use your IC-7851's front panel to change its frequency from 14005 to 14006 - and jot down the time at which you made this change 5. On the Configuration window's General tab, uncheck the "Log debugging info" box 6. Attach the errorlog.txt file from your Commander folder to an email message that contains the time you noted in step 4, and send the message to me via aa6yq (at) ambersoft.com 73, Dave, AA6YQ
