Good day I am trying to use the buttons on the K-Pod to run macros. I have used the K3 Utility Command tester to store the macro (in this case swt42;) and edited the MACRO15 label to SPOT. So a tap of the F7 button on the K-Pod should tune the rig to the signal (CWT on, signal is close enough).

Re: [Elecraft] K-Pod: A failure to Communicate

BINGO, I believe we have a winner. AUTOINF is NOR, however, I use LP-Bridge for port sharing the K3S USB with various logging programs and SpectraVue software running my SDR-IQ that I use as a band scope. So there is pretty regular bus activity. When I disable LP-Bridge it *appears* to

Re: [Elecraft] K-Pod: A failure to Communicate

Bob In order to answer your query about spaces in the command strings, I disconnected the K3S USB from my logging computer and went to my firmware/software maintenance computer. Running the K3 Utility I saw no extra spaces before or after the commands. If I executed them from the computer

Re: [Elecraft] K-Pod: A failure to Communicate

Have you tried programming the identical function into both the TAP and HOLD macros for each button? It's very easy to hold down a K-POD button a bit too long, which runs a different macro. If nothing is programmed for the HOLD function, you'll see "MACRO 1" or similar blink in the VFO B

[Elecraft] K-Pod: A failure to Communicate

With a nod to Cool Hand Luke I have mentioned this before in another thread but have heard no response. I, and I know others, have experienced the annoyance of tapping a key on the K-Pod and after noticeable latency, seeing a message appear in the VFO B space that acknowledges the tap, yet

Re: [Elecraft] K-Pod Macros

As I sit and look at my station and my K-Pod, just remember Dayton is not that far away, and Wayne, Eric and the rest of the crew have been very very quiet. Remember they're very good at blowing people out of the water remember there was a radio that came out last year that caught everybody

[Elecraft] K-Pod Macros

According to the manual, through a future firmware upgrade, the K-Pod will be able to function as a USB HID (Human Interface Device) such as a keyboard or mouse. Conceivably, the eight K-Pod tap and hold switches could be mapped to 16 P3 / PX3 macros. You could even implement three “banks” of 16

Re: [Elecraft] K-Pod VFO B

Neat idea, Don. Thanks! It wouldn’t create a simultaneous display but it would allow the display toggle from the same place where the K-Pod’s VFO B knob is. The macro would be a cinch – I think it would just be SWT08; emulating a tap on the DISP button, assigned to an unused tap or hold on

Re: [Elecraft] K-Pod VFO B

Ted, On the K-Pod, with the rocker switch in the VFO B position, it will do whatever the VFO B knob on the K3 will do. If you have VFO B Alternate Display up, it will rotate between the Alternate Display items, just like the VFO B knob would do. You could create a macro that would switch the

[Elecraft] K-Pod VFO B

Noticed something today that surprised me at first. When the K3’s VFO B area display is set to the clock and etc. function, and the K-Pod rocker switch is set to VFO B, the K-Pod knob rotates through the display items and does not control the VFO. As I thought about it, that does make sense –

[Elecraft] K-POD Issue solved

Hi Guys, You may remember I reported an issue with the K-Pod missing key presses etc. Since it was intermittent you can never be sure you have fixed the problem. Last night I was having a little play in the 160m contest and the k-pod started to play up almost 50% of the time so I had to do

Re: [Elecraft] k-pod data cable

The KPOD does not use I2C. It comes with a very short cable for good reasons. Increasing the length somewhat is probably OK. Increasing it a lot is probably a very bad idea. "Just because you can doesn't mean you should" comes to mind. 73, Lyle KK7P It is likely that the interface used

Re: [Elecraft] k-pod data cable

I read "short distance..." after sending my stuff. I think you are correct about the I2C electrical connection, but I still think Elecraft needs a box to box communication protocol which allows multi-masters. USB would do, but probably isn't the only choice. Ethernet? There is a question of

Re: [Elecraft] k-pod data cable

Bill, I dunno. I'm an RF guy and this uProcessor stuff makes my eyes glaze over. That said, your own reference says in part: "short-distance, intra-board communication." It seems to me that the problems seen are related to interconnections between the K3 and the K-Pod. And it seems the

Re: [Elecraft] k-pod data cable

It is likely that the interface used by the K-Pod is the I2C bus , a very commonly used bus in the chip world. I use it to connect the real-time clock board to my BeagleBone Black board. I2C is a 2 way, multi-master bus protocol that might be ideal for
