Hello Andy, Just an information about Multipsk or Mixw...and Commander. The global control may be summarized according to the following diagram: MULTIPSK (DDE TX)-->(DDE RX) COMMANDER-->COM-->"CAT SYSTEM"-->TRANSCEIVER MULTIPSK (DDE RX)<--(DDE TX) COMMANDER<--COM<--"CAT SYSTEM"<--TRANSCEIVER
The DDE link is independant to the Com port. It is an internal way to exchange data between programs (as TCP/IP for example) inside the PC. If you have checked "None" that means that you don't need that Multipsk handles the Com port to switch your XCVR from TX to RX and reverse, this because you switch the XCVR through Commander (which handles the Com port for the Cat System). That's a good way to do as you control also the QRG of your XCVR and the transmission mode (LSB, USB). 73 Patrick ----- Original Message ----- From: Andrew O'Brien To: [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, December 13, 2006 3:49 AM Subject: [digitalradio] Re: PTT via Commander I have it working for PTT but I am confused about a couple of factors. Set Commander for your desired comm port, test the PTT via Commander ("config" then the "general" tab and select TX in the PTT area.) That should work fairly easily. Then boot up Multipsk and go to the config area and select "serial port" . This is where I get confused. In my settings (using a USB interface with virtual serial ports, the Microkeyer), there is a check mark next to "none" in the Multipsk serial port area. It works just fine, but is set to none. Other people I have helped claim that "none" does no work for them but it has worked when they select another PTT port in Multipsk.
