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  backend  libraries  lack
       complete  rig support, the basic functions are usually 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)
       indicates 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').
              NB: rigmem (or third party software) will use rig model 1901 when using rpc.rigd.

       -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.   Typically  /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 information 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.
