Re: [Elecraft] SVGA Screen save to memory stick

[Mike Flowers]

Seems to have been implemented in P3 firmware - see:

https://ftp.elecraft.com/P3/firmware/p3fwnotes.rtf

P3SVGA 01.16 / 02-26-2013 says:

"Added display of an onscreen message when a USB device (keyboard or MSD) is 
attached and detached."

I wonder if this message is appearing when a flash drive is inserted in the P3 
USB port.

[Elecraft] Elecraft CW Net Announcement

[kevinr]

Good Evening,

   I received over five inches of rain this week, the air is much 
fresher.  There is some solar activity: a sunspot, a G2 class storm, and 
higher flux readings.  It will be noisy but the signals may be 
stronger.  I expect QSB to be deep and rapid.  The nets will be 
entertaining.



Please join us on (or near):

14050 kHz at 2200z Sunday (3 PM PDT Sunday)
 7047 kHz at 0045z Monday (5:45 PM PDT Sunday)

   73,
  Kevin. KD5ONS

Re: [Elecraft] SVGA Screen save to memory stick

[Bill Frantz]

USB hubs were also not supported. Since all Apple keyboards have 
a builtin hub, to ease connection of a mouse, the lack of hub 
support knocked them out too.

Re: [Elecraft] SVGA Screen save to memory stick

[w4sc]

All,

There is a selection (SVGA Ubmp)  in the SVGA menus that will, according to the 
P3 manual,  save a bmp file to a memory stick.  Ref pp 43, 33 in the P3 Owners 
Manual  Rev H1.

You're absolutely correct to note the labeling and I’ve always presumed that is 
the connector is only for a keyboard.  

However, the "P3 HIgh-Performance Owner’s Manual" (Revision F, 11 JAN 16 p.12) 
does have this description of that connector:

"KEYBOARD: USB jack for a USB keyboard or thumb drive (mass storage device). 
Apple keyboards are not supported at this time.”


So the wording does suggest compatibility with thumb drives, but from what I 
can tell there is no discussion in the “Owner’s Manual" about how to utilize a 
thumb drive.  Perhaps this may be a feature that was never actually developed.

Re: [Elecraft] SVGA Screen save to memory stick

[Mike Flowers]

Hi Don,

Yes, subsequently I saw the illustration with that port labeled ‘keyboard’. 

I was looking at the P3 manual, and not the SVGA option manual.

The P3 Utility is the only way I’ve found that will do a screen capture - but 
always willing to learn something new.

You're absolutely correct to note the labeling and I’ve always presumed that is

However, the "P3 HIgh-Performance Owner’s Manual" (Revision F, 11 JAN 16 p.12)

I finally managed to get it partially running with the help of a couple

Re: [Elecraft] XV222 RX is Dead, Need Advice

[Don Wilhelm]

Yes, I have one - BUT
Elecraft has the schematics for all the transverters.  Go to the manuals 
page and open the Retired Products page.

Then select the XV Transverter Owner's manual and download it.
You will find in Appendix A the schematics for the XV50, XV144 and XV222.
If you have a printed copy of the Owner's manual for those transverters, 
you will find the schematics for all of them in Appendix A.


The XV432 is a separate Owner's Manual.  It has a different board layout 
- the boards for the XV50, XV144 and XV222 are the same layout but the 
components are different.  See the board layout for each of them.

Mark,

Do you have a schematic for the XV222?  I looked on their site and 
could not come up with one.

Mark,

Sorry about your failed effort. There is little in the RX path other
than Q3 and U1 that is not also used in TX.

If you have equipment that can do signal tracing at 222MHz, just trace
the signal path. There should be a significant increase in RF voltage
at the output of Q3 and more at the output of U1. If not, check to be
certain K1 has not been damaged. K1 should be available from Elecraft
since it is used in the XV144 which is still in production.

On the KX3, the ACC2 connector (a 2.5 mm stereo or "TRS" jack), TIP is PTT
IN (for a footswitch or computer-generated PTT if you set *ACC2: IO* to
*LO=PTT*), and ring is KEYLINE OUT (for an amplifier).  So RING of ACC2 is
the one to connect to key the amplifier relay with a KX3.

I can't tell which of the sections on a TRRS jack to use. Ring 2 or ring 3?


The only TRRS jack on the KX3 is the MIC jack.  Ring 2 is Logic Ground and
Ring 1 is PTT IN (push-to-talk switch) or UP/DOWN.  Do not connect the mic.
jack to the amp.

 Also don't know how much current is on that amp key line. Measured 15V DC
> when it is on and off measured 400 ohms, if that is any help.


Just put your meter into "AMPS" or "MilliaAmps" on the highest scale, and
measure the current across the KEY IN or "RELAY" jack of the amp with the
meter while it is powered ON.  The amp. should go into TX mode when the
meter shorts that terminal to ground.  Chances it's well within the limits
of the KX3 KEY OUT line (30V, 100ma max).

BTW, the S-BOX or S-BOX-USB makes a nice "docking station" / computer
interface for a KX2 or KX3, if you need one.  Rig control plus
computer-generated CW and PTT over a single USB cable can be provided,
along with all the required interface cables.
