This panel provides the option of automatically changing Operating Mode when Commander reports a change in transceiver mode not initiated by WinWarbler. For example, you can specify that WinWarbler should switch to the RTTY operating mode if your transceiver is switched to RTTY. This panel provides a selector for each transceiver mode. If a selector's contents are empty, then there will be no change in Operating Mode when the transceiver is switched to the transceiver mode associated with that selector. If a selector's contents specify an operating mode, then when Commander reports that the transceiver has switched to the transceiver mode associated with that selector, the specified operating mode will be activated.
Note that transceiver mode changes initiated by <xcvrcommand> or <xcvrsequence> macro commands will trigger Operating Mode Selection, if enabled.
