Ramón & others, For the record MMTTY is not included in the DX4WIN install software because the AUTHOR of MMTTY JE3HHT doesn't allow this. See his WebPages "Commercial Programs are not allowed to include this file", But can be downloaded and used FREE by any HAMRADIO station. Here is the link where you can find it http://www.qsl.net/mmhamsoft/mmtty/index.html
Linking it to DX4WIN is done in a few minutes **** WINDOWS 98 and previous OS - version USERS **** **** WINDOWS 2000 and WINDOWS XP **** see below (much easier only 1 PC) DX4WIN "rttywindow"(terminalmode) and MMTTY1.61b (TNC EMULATION) or upgrades can work together if you have 2 computers. HOW TO IS VERY SIMPLE. PC1 = Run DX4WIN with RTTY enabled on Com=X (free serialport on PC1) Setup DX4WIN Preferences|Tab = RTTY Type = REGULAR Com = free serial port Baud Rate = 9600 Flow Control = RTS/CTS Data/Parity = 8 bits/no parity Options = Always in Immediate mode and Show function keys is marked Save changes and exit PC2 = Run MMTTY1.61b (or later release) setup for TNC-EMULATION on COM=Y Setup MMTTY "TAB OPTIONS" Setup TNC emulation Port = free serial port on PC2 Baud = 9600 Data length = 8 bits Stop = 1 bit Parity = None flow control = CTS TNC type = TNC241 Local echo = After Sending Stay on Top or Disable Window depends on your own choice "TAB SETUP MMTTY" Under TX you can choice another (free) port for PTT (can be the one you use for the rigcontrol) Under Misc you can select the different TX port possibilities (sound or COM or combo) Connect COM = X (PC1) To COM = Y(PC2) With a NULL MODEM CABLE and all is done. Null modem cable wiring without handshaking DB9comX pin2 ------- pin3 DB9comY DB9comX pin3 ------- pin2 DB9comY DB9comX pin5 ------- pin5 DB9comY Null modem cable wiring with full handshaking DB9comX pin2 ------- pin3 DB9comY DB9comX pin3 ------- pin2 DB9comY DB9comX pin4 ------- pin6 DB9comY DB9comX pin5 ------- pin5 DB9comY DB9comX pin6 ------- pin4 DB9comY DB9comX pin7 ------- pin8 DB9comY DB9comX pin8 ------- pin7 DB9comY Start Dx4win and start now MMTTY in the RTTY window you should see now MMTTY Ver1.61B (C) JE3HHT(Mako) 2000. TNC emulation mode. Command 'K' To RX:Ctrl+R To TX:Ctrl+T cmd: Go into the RTTY window and make the combination Ctrl + R and you should RX 'RTTY' now with correctly setup function keys you can go AUTOMATIC in RX/TX mode. Some function keys F1 = CQ CQ|CQ CQ CQ de %~ %~%M F2=REPORT|%M%@ UR %$ %$ QSL DE %~ BK %M\%T F4=REPLY CQ|%M%@ DE %~ %~ %~ bk %M\%T More options and shortcuts can be seen/sellected when you are in EDIT FUNCTION KEYS and you push F1 **** WINDOWS 2000 and WINDOWS XP **** users. You don't need 2 computers because there is a small SERIAL PORT EMULATION program available and it's ALSO FREE on http://www.mixw.net/related.htm All is explained in the README.TXT This driver emulates two serial ports and provides communication between them under Windows 2000/XP. Windows 2000 and XP (nearly the same) : ============================= Installing the driver 1. Open Control Panel 2. Run "Add/Remove Hardware" 3. At "Welcome to Add/Remove hardware" screen, click "Next" 4. Select "Add/Troubleshoot a device and click "Next" 5. Wait 6. In Devices box, select "Add a new device", click "Next" 7.

Emulated ports DO NOT appear under "Ports (COM & LPT)" in Control Panel Setup RTTY under DX4WIN Preferences|Tab = RTTY Type = REGULAR Com = choose the first emulated serial port you setup in MixW Com 8 is max allowed number for DX4WIN (I took COM=7) Baud Rate = 9600 Flow Control = RTS/CTS Data/Parity = 8 bits/no parity Options = Always in Immediate mode and Show function keys is marked Save changes and exit Setup MMTTY "TAB OPTIONS" Setup TNC emulation Port = choose the second emulated serial port you setup in MixW Com 8 is also max allowed number for MMTTY (I took COM=8) Baud = 9600 Data length = 8 bits Stop = 1 bit Parity = None flow control = CTS TNC type = TNC241 Local echo = After Sending Stay on Top or Disable Window depends on your own choice "TAB SETUP MMTTY" Under Tx you can choice another (free) port for PTT (can be the one you use for the rigcontrol) Under Misc you can select the different TX port possibilities (sound or COM or combo) RUNNING both & editing FUNCTIONKEYS are explained above. When I find some time I will put all this INFO on my WebPages. Maybe early but for all DX4WINNERS HAPPY SEASON GREETINGS. 73 Guy ON4AOI BAND DECODER and related stuff at http://www.on4aoi.be/banddecoder.htm DX4WIN soft and related stuff at http://www.on4aoi.be/dx4win.htm DX4WIN, WRITELOG, WF1B & RITTY CW & RTTY interfaces at http://www.on4aoi.be/keyer.htm ARSWIN link and related stuff at http://www.on4aoi.be/web7.htm DXTELNET soft and related stuff at http://www.on4aoi.be/dxt.htm MY SALESPAGE with radioamateur & computer parts http://www.on4aoi.be/sale.htm --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/mixed text/plain (text body -- kept) image/bmp The reason this message is shown is because the post was in HTML or had an attachment.
