[Dx4win] MicroKeyer Win XP problems
I am using a homebrew computer with an ASUS MB, 2,8GHz Intel CPU, SATAHD, etc with WinXP-Pro and have had no problems at all with MicroHam, DX4WIN, and MMTTY. I would suggest uninstalling the USB Device Router and unplugging the USB cable to the MicroKeyer. Run for a day or two without any of that stuff in play and see what happens. My guess is that something else is wrong, but removing the suspected culprit will provide the answer. Another thing you can do is go into WinXP Admin Tools and look at the Event Logs. Look particularly at the Application log and the System log to see if there are any clues as to what happened when the hang took place. If there are no relevant events then I would look at your SDRAM. If you have more than one memory stick then unplug all but one and run that way. If you still get a hang try the other sticks alone. If a computer hangs without any event being recorded then you probably have a bad memory stick or some kind of MB problem related to memory. E-mail me direct if you want to discuss this further. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Les Kalmus Sent: Thursday, August 25, 2005 9:23 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; dx4win@mailman.qth.net Subject: [Dx4win] MicroKeyer Win XP problems I have recently put together a PC using an Asus V7A880 MB Asus Video card 1 MB of RAM. It includes a Conexant modem, CD/DVD R/W drive and Serial ATA HD using Win XP Pro. I have put together many PCs in the past but none with the problems I have experienced with this one. With XP and all the other compenents updated to the latest driver release I have had nothing but problems after the MK software was installed. The PC will arbitrarily hang, sometimes when not much is going on. The last hang was while I was moving the cursor with the mouse. Nothing much else was going on. The modem is used because I have only dialup here. I am using DX4Win and N1MM. I haven't even been able to try MMTTY yet. I think all was well until the MK was installed but I have redone the software so many time that I am no longer sure of the sequence of events. Has anyone had similar experience with a similar software setup and did you get it running? Any suggestions as to what to try? I am thinking of going back to Win2K.

[Dx4win] MMTTY IN DX4WIN
Credit goes to Bob, W5OV for the following. Assuming you have MMTTY running stand-alone and correctly PTT keying the transmitter and sending FSK when your rig is in rtty mode running through the MicroKEYER.Get that set up first and running properly and then dont change anything in MMTTY. Then close MMTTY Then the following Settings: MicroKEYER Virtual Port menu, create COM3 COM4 AND COM5 Device menu: load template for DX4WIN Then set Control COM3 FSK COM5 CW COM4DTR PTT COM5 RTS then Preset menu Save as, and name it DX4WIN A button will appear at the bottom that will allow you to recall the above settings. You can do the same for MMTTY stand-alone or other programs you use. If you make any further changes remember to save it again. Differently numbered COM ports may be used but the numbers used above must match those below. In DX4WIN File, Preferences, Radio: Set radio type to your radio, COM port to COM3 Control, CW keying/PTT control Interface COM4 DTR line CW keying RTS line PTT control RTTY tab, RTTY Interface TYPE None MMTTY at bottom set path to mmtty.exe Save settings Open the MMTTY window within DX4WIN then from within MMTTY window hit Alt-S which will call up a small window named MMTTY keying setup Set PTT CONTROL and in key line click RTS (Dont set a COM port in this window) It should run now.. 73, Jay W5SL - Original Message - From: George Frost To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 8/25/2005 8:34:09 PM Subject: RE: [Dx4win] MMTTY IN DX4WIN Jay what was the solution?

Receives fine. I am trying to set up FSK through MicroKeyer. All I am able to get is keying of the rig with a solid tone, no diddle, no transmission of data. MMTTY works fine stand-alone and works fine with N1MMLogger through the MicroKeyer, but MicroKeyer refuses to recognize MMTTY for transmission of data from inside DX4WIN. Any suggestions?

[Dx4win] rigblaster
Has anyone set up rigblaster and ver 7 of dx4win? Having difficult time getting psk and mtty to run on same port.

It works great when clicking on spots, and following the rig when I change bands. It sets up splits properly also. However, I notice whenever I do click on a spot, it will switch to the proper mode, but it alwasys defaults to the second filter. Is there something in the rig file that controls that? I am using the 746 rig file with an address of 66, and baud rate of 19,200. I'm using Com 1 and rts is high. Any help would be appreciated. Has anyone created a specific 746Pro rig file? 73, Terry, WK0F From [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fri Aug 26 17:46:09 2005 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Dimitriy Borzenko) Date: Sat Aug 27 10:52:15 2005 Subject: [Dx4win] BV7 and dx4win Message-ID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hello list.
