\page keyer Keyer
\tableofcontents
The keyer window, available under the Tools Menu, is a simple interface for cwdaemon. You can program all of the function keys with CW messages and control other aspects such as your speed.

\section keyer-f1-keys F1 - F12 Shortcuts
The function key buttons labeled F1 - F12 are shortcuts that will send the text in the value field to the cwdaemon when the key is pressed. Any valid ASCII characters can be entered here, however there are certain characters that have been defined as simple text macros.
\subsection keyer-macros Keyer Text Macro Definitions
The following strings can be used as macros, and the keyer will replace it with the indicated value.
- % = (Percent) My Callsign
- @ = (At Symbol) Other persons callsign
- # = (Pound) Number counter
- ~ = (Tilde) last exchange message
The ~ (tilde) macro is used for forwarding the last received message. For example, if we make a contest QSO we send "599ABC" and receive "599XYZ". The next QSO we will send "599XYZ" using the ~ macro. This macro would typically be used in the keyer window and defaults dialog. The initial message can be set in page 2 of the preferences dialog.
\subsection keyer-defaults Keyer Defaults

\section keyer-basic-usage Basic Usage
Clicking the stop button or using the 'ESC' key will abort any current sending messages. You can also see a counter for serial numbers, a toggle box for short serial numbers and a menu for selecting either CQ or "Search Pound" mode.
The number counter will auto-increment. The defaults dialog can be used to fill in default reports for a contest, the # and ~ macro can be used in the TX(RST) field of this dialog.
\section keyer-contest-modes Contest Modes
The keyer in Xlog can be used in both CQ and SP Contest modes.

-# < F3 > will be sent: "PA0R 5nntt1"
-# exchange entries will be filled in from the defaults dialog
-# xlog will jump to the end of the exchange field < RX(RST) >
-# enter the exchange number you hear and hit < enter >
-# xlog will complete the date, time and frequency entries
-# the < CQTU > entry will now be sent: "tu PG4I test"
-# the QSO will be added to the log
