Omni-V/Paragon I/RS-232

[Ten-Tec Inc.]

The RS-232 interface was standard equipment on the Omni-V.
The Paragon I used an optional interface board (model 258), which
is no longer available from us.  Each of these radios had a unique
computer command set.  This was changed for the Omni-VI and 
Paragon II, both of which use the same computer command set.  
In addition a separate two line serial interface was added aside
from the standard RS-232 port, usable with our (discontinued) model 
305 level converter or the Icom CT-IV level converter.  

The Omni-VI and Paragon II can emulate Icom transceivers under
computer control.  The Icom interface was chosen for the Omni-VI 
and Paragon II because it was the most well-documented of the 
available interfaces, and we were disappointed by the lack of
software written for the Paragon and Omni-V transceivers.  We
have not written software for use with the Omni-VI or Paragon II,
and have no intention of doing so in the future.   We also do not
specifically endorse any manufacturer's software package for use
with our transceivers.
