The Omni VI has no provision for computer control of audio level, rf level,
power level, etc.  The only parms that can be computer controlled in the
Omni VI are frequency, mode, filter, vfo selection, and split on/off.  I
hope I'm not forgetting one.

Thanks for all of the feedback regarding my rig control question.  I have
connected my Omni to the COMM1 port via the 25 pin cable.  After doing the
port selection criteria in my Writelog program, the only rig information
that I have on my screen is frequency and mode.  Adjusting these parameters
requires either manual action on the computer (new frequency/mode entry via
a window) or adjustment at the rig on the tuning knob.  Any adjustments to
any other parameter, such as power level, AF gain, etc. still must be done
at the radio and are not visible on the screen.  It would sure be great to
totally control the radio from the computer.  Any ideas of what I am doing
wrong with either the Writelog program or my interface set-up?  Thanks in
advance.  73.
