ARCS II Description

ARCS, by default, uses Kenwood's Auto Information function to communicate with the TS-2000. However, you can choose to not use it. Users may have USB "ham" type interfaces that monopolize the TS-2000's RTS pin. Other software using the RTS at the same time ARCS is running precludes the use of Auto Information. However, AI can be turned off with some performance degrades. ARCS has both AR-Cluster and DXSpider access to Internet DX Servers. It has an APRS module. ARCS II is a free CAT program using the advanced features of the TS-2000 to do things the commercial ARCP-2000 software can not. The software is designed for Windows 95 and above. Some features only work in Windows 98 and above. Most of ARCS's features work with LINUX if used in conjunction with the WINE Windows simulator. WINE users may have difficulties if they have a 64 bit OS. Mac users reportedly can run the software with the appropriate software to run Microsoft Windows on a Mac.
