[Dx4win] DX4WIN + WSJT-X COM Port Control

2021-02-04 Thread Mark Weiss via DX4WIN
I have used DX4WIN for many years.  I use WSJT-X for FT8.  

 

I want both programs to have simultaneous full access to my transceiver
through the one COM port that is used for data transfer and control of the
transceiver.

 

I have tried many port sharing and port splitting software programs without
success.  The two programs work for a few minutes, but when one of the
programs polls the port, the other program loses connection to the port.

 

Has anyone found a way to do what I want to accomplish?

 

I have been advised that Ham Radio Deluxe has the desired capability, but I
don't want to switch from DX4WIN to HRD.

 

Tnx & 73,

 

Mark, K6FG

[Dx4win] DX4WIN, IC7800 & SteppIR Controller Issue

2018-12-31 Thread Mark Weiss via DX4WIN
Hello all,
 
I have a strange problem that is driving me nuts.
 
DX4WIN specifies baud rate of 9600 to talk to my IC7800.  When I set the
IC7800's CI-V baud rate to 9600, there is no communication between DX4WIN
and IC7800.  When I set the IC7800's CI-V baud rate to AUTO, DX4WIN and
IC7800 get along just fine.
 
But, when the IC7800's CI-V baud rate is set at 9600, the SteppIR SDA-100
control box will not autotrack the IC7800's band or frequency.  If I set the
7800's CI-V baud rate to AUTO, then the SteppIR SDA-100 control box tracks
properly.
 
Does anyone have any ideas?
 
73 & HNY,
 
Mark, K6FG

[Dx4win] DX4WIN and WSJT-X

2018-12-15 Thread Mark Weiss via DX4WIN
I've used DX4WIN for many years.  It controls my IC-7800 perfectly, as
expected.
 
Now I'd like to also be able to control my transceiver by WSJT-X, as well.
 
The problem is that they both fight for control of the rig.  DX4WIN usually
wins and WSJT-X presents me with an error message.
 
Does anyone have a simple way to enable both programs to control the rig
concurrently?
 
Tnx & 73,
 
Mark, K6FG

Hi Mark,
  I had the same problem with my Orion controller.  Simple fix for me was -
Click on Rotator - Parameters - go to each band and click it and change the
"disabled" to "Normal".  I think I had to click the OK  for each band as I
went through the process.   Good Luck

Subject: [Dx4win] Rotator issue

DX4WIN Ver. 9 does not control my Yaesu rotator (with Idiom Press RS-232
board).  Version 8 controlled the rotator properly.

 

Another rotator control program (PstRotatorAz) continues to control the
rotator.  That is when DX4WIN is shut down to free the COM port.  Apparently
DX4WIN seizes the COM port.

 

The DX4WIN Ver. 9 rotator settings in Preferences-Control are the same as
when I used DX4WIN Ver. 8.

 

>From the above analysis, my guess is that the computer, COM port interface &
the rotator are all functioning correctly.

 

Has anyone else experienced this issue?

 

Any suggestions for a fix?

 

Tnx & 73,

 

Mark, K6FG
