[Elecraft] MICROHAM USB III INTERFACE WITH K3 UTILITY DOES NOT WORK

2018-02-17 Thread j...@kk9a.com

I agree that the MicroHAM interface works perfectly with the Elecraft
utility for everything except firmware updates. Using it with firmware
updates is a disaster, don't ask me how I know this:)

I have not attempted to run the P3 utility through microHAM USB
Device Router but have no need to do so.  Whenever I update the
firmware in either of my K3(s) or the P3, I switch to a direct
serial connection.

I think old instructions said to connect Elecraft Utility direct to radio. Not 
thru Microham.

Using the K3 utility with the MicroHam, is not something you
generally want to do.

The K3 utility runs just fine through microHAM USB Device Router
as long as it is the *only* application accessing the transceiver
and you don't try to update firmware.

I have not attempted to run the P3 utility through microHAM USB
Device Router but have no need to do so.  Whenever I update the
firmware in either of my K3(s) or the P3, I switch to a direct

I know that in the past when Win4K3Suite was being developed, the 
MicroHam would not pass P3 commands and Joe was kind enough to add these 
commands to the router firmware.  Now in the case of the K3 Utility, 
many of the commands are not published and therefore might not be 
passable through the serial port.
Use of the K3 utility though any software router is not recommended and 
you might brick your K3.


That being said, VMWare fusion will pass all USB ports through to the 
Windows 7 virtual machine.  You must first plug them into the Mac OS and 
make sure they work there.  Then you start up your virtual machine and 
make sure you have enabled and connected the USB devices in the VMWare 
settings (I think there is a tab on the top to do so.)  If this is not 
done, then no ports are available.

Hope that helps.

Greg,

Do you have a USB to serial cable other than the MicroHam?

If so, try connecting using K3 Utility with it.  If it works, then you
will know the K3 is OK, and the computer (at least for K3 Utility) is OK
too.
If that is the case, then you will only need to look at the MicroHam,
the serial cable from the Microham to the K3 and the cable between the
computer and Microham.

That is a lot better than trying to troubleshoot the entire system
(computer, Microham and K3) as a single unit - in other words, isolate
the problem to one box and its connecting cables.

Set the baud rate for the COM port at 38400.

Re: [Elecraft] MICROHAM USB III INTERFACE WITH K3 UTILITY DOES NOT WORK

2018-02-16 Thread Joe Subich, W4TV



Have you installed microHAM USB Device Router in the Windows Virtual
Machine?  Router installs both the FTDI (hardware) driver and the
Eltima VSPAX (software) driver.

The hardware driver is responsible for communications between the
Router software and the interface.  The VSPAX is responsible for
creating the virtual COM port (as well as mapping rig control/CAT
to one virtual port, and PTT, CW/FSK to a different virtual port
if needed).

A first step might be to get things working using the K3 utility 
under MacOS. After that works, then fight whatever problems may 
exist in VMware and Windows.

My connection K3 -> P3 -> USB III -> PC works fine with Microham driver 
installed.
With the Microham driver GUI, you need to configure virtual COM port to 
communication PC software such as K3 Utility and others to K3.

I hope this is not the case but if it is, this is really bad.  My PC is
actually a MacBook Pro with VMWARE Fusion on it with Win 7 as virtual OS.
One of the things with the virtual OS is that only certain ports are

[Elecraft] MICROHAM USB III INTERFACE WITH K3 UTILITY DOES NOT WORK

2018-02-16 Thread Greg Best

I am still trying to get a K3 talking.  I have a connection through a
Microham USB III Interface box that connects the K3 RS232 port to my PC
running Win 7 64 Pro. The path is from the K3 to the Microham III USB
interface, then there is a straight USB connection from the Microham to the
PC.  I have downloaded the K3 Utility and tried to see if it will establish
connection with the PC but it will not.  COM port 1 is used.  The K3 setting
is currently at 38400 baud  but I also tried setting the K3 baud rate at
4800 and doing a power on/off  but with the same results.   I see the K3
utility screen on the PC step through the various baud rates but it will not
sync up to the K3. The PC recognizes the Microham USB interface when looking
at the Win 7 Device Manager but it indicates there is no device driver. I
don¹t always trust what the PC says though.  Can someone point me to a
device driver I can download and install. My K3 FW is Rev 5.38.
