Hi to All. I have a K3 with several transverters attached, two of which are Elecraft 144 and 432 models, the others are generic. I have used this configuration for over 12 months and in this period had not upgraded the firmware in the K3 (it weren't broke). Early this week I did upgrade and found the K3 would not turn on or respond until I removed the connection between the K3 and the Elecraft transverters.
I have since discovered that if there is no power to the transverters the K3 will not turn on, if there is power then all acts normally, it seems to be an issue with I2C type bus between the K3 and the transverters. It's no big deal, I just have to ensure there is power on the transverters all of the time. My questions are (In the hope some Elecraft engineers or other clever folk read this) 1: Is this unique to my configuration? 2: Was the firmware change by design or as a consequence of supporting other devices on the bus? Regards. Roger VK3ADE. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
