[Dx4win] DX4Win and Flex 6500
Hi all I have my Flex 6500 radio connected via a local switch (to my internet box) I am using Windows 10 and DX4Win version 8.05 Can anyone with a similar configuration help me setup dx4win so it does communicate with the radio (CAT) ?

[Dx4win] DX4WIN and Flex 6500 not connecting
Hello Klaus, Thank you for the screen shots, I connected as shown but DX4WIN would not connect to the 6500 and would time out I have no port problems, DX4WIN worked for years with the Flex 5000A and DDUtil... Im stumped as to whats going on and need someone from Flex and/or DX4WIN to take a quick look at why DX4WIN is not talking the lingo required for the 6500s CAT server interface Again, thank you Klaus! Would someone from Flex and/or DX4WIN look to see what the problem is?

Re: [Dx4win] DX4WIN and Flex 6500 not connecting
Well, thank you Bob, Its working if I bring up a second slice with VFOB as you discovered I wonder if there is someway for SmartSDR to provide a place holder number for VFOB when its not open or ask DX4WIN people to change it to look for VFOA instead of VFOB?? Again, thank you Bob and Klaus!!

DX4Win immediately looks for the frequency of VFO B (the FB command) it will try six time, and if it doesn't get an answer, it times out). I'm not sure exactly why DX4Win is dependent on VFO B being there but it is. I don't know if this has something to do with how the radio profile (in DX4Win) is generated, I opened up the DX4Win FlexRadio.rig file but his acronyms don't mean anything to me so I can't decipher what is supposed to happen. I created a second receiver on the 6000 (before starting DX4Win) and everything ran smoothly. I can read both receiver frequencies and set split mode from the DX4Win Radio Frequency Control panel. The only CAT command that the Flex6000 is not responding to is RC (reset the RIT frequency) which is not available currently in the radio. CAT responds with the correct error message and DX4Win seems to accept it. So, I guess the fix is to always have a second receiver running, either in the same panadapter or another one. 73, Bob, K5KDN On Sun, Jul 14, 2013 at 9:13 AM, Dennis Petrich radio...@frontiernet.net wrote: Hello Klaus, Thank you for the screen shots, I connected as shown but DX4WIN would not connect to the 6500 and would time out I have no port problems, DX4WIN worked for years with the Flex 5000A and DDUtil...
