Hi, I recently downloaded a copy of DX4WIN, ver 8.04, and installed the license. This effectively upgraded me from an earlier version that I owned.
I am seeking help because I have a problem with the radio interface software not working for my TS-2000. After starting the radio, the DX4WIN banner will show "(not responding)" and an error message appears shortly after that - that message is "Radio timed out. Radio interface has been disabled" Radio Setup Parameters are: . Type=Kenwood 2000 . Address=00 . Baud Rate = 9600 . COM Port = COM2 . Poll rate = 5000; but have tried other settings . Max tries = 6 . Transverter=0 . Band= None Menu 56 on the TS-2000 is set to 9600 baud. Windows device manager reports 9600, 8, n , 1 for COM2 settings. I am running the software on Windows-7 Professional and I have verified the I/O address is 02F8 for COM2. I have tried Windows-7 native as well as the XP (SP3) compatibility mode on dx4win.exe. I have tried DTR/RTS high and low. I have tried other baud rates & settings but no change DX4WIN seems to work fine for logging, etc. Just the radio interface is the problem. HERE'S THE CATCH: The radio DOES respond to Kenwood's ARCP software without any changes in cables, COM settings or other adjustments. I can shutdown DX4WIN and can immediately start ARCP--- ARCP works fine and I have complete software control over the radio. This leads me to believe there is something in DX4WIN that I'm not setting correctly. Can you offer any suggestions?
