Alan ([email protected]), I put together your Accessory Switch with a RJ-25. I am running my tracker in Garmin mode. I have tested the contacts on the RJ25 and the Ohm Meter shows when I close the switch, so the crimping of the wires is solid. But I get no Tx and no Profile change.
Am I missing a piece of the puzzle? Is it necessary to make a mod to the inside of the unit? Is there a configuration that needs to be turned on? Maybe it doesn't work in Garmin mode? Any ideas? Thanks, Rolf NR0T =========================================================================== Re: Changing Profiles via 'Accessory Switch' Posted by: "Alan" [email protected] radionerd1 Sat Apr 17, 2010 9:54 pm (PDT) Phil, Pin 1 momentary Force TX Position beacon Pin 3 Ground (center of switch) Pin 6 switch profile You can set profile switching however you want in the OTconfig program, under the Profile Switching Tab. I set mine to profile 2 when the switch is off (WIDE1-1 DX mode) Switch left profile 1 (No Path local mode) Switch momentary right forced PTT I set it that way since my profile 1 has no path, profile 2 has path WIDE1-1. When forcing a position beacon it also has a WIDE1-1 path since profile is open. In California a single hop WIDE1-1 is all that is necessary. If you save the photos of my switch, you can enlarge them enough to read the text info on the pictures. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/tracker2/photos/album/2016843644/pic/list Alan
