Hi again, reports from the schack:
Hi Hans,
You say-
In recent Windows you must set speaker volume sliders while the device
is active. I recommend setting the level for Tx from teh USB audio
driver from your rig menu item "USB Level".
This is the problem speaker volume adjusted at first TX but for next
TX volume level back on 0 and no output. You can not sit and adjust
for every TX sequence. Rig USB level set to 78 as always ...
Where do you have the "Pwr" slider at the right hand side of the WSJT-X
main window? This control is an attenuator which is directly connected
to the Windows level control for the output audio device you select in
"Settings->Audio->Output" which you would normally have at the top (0dB)
unless you want a Tx power less than the minimum output from your rig's
carrier/power control.
CI_V Transcieve mode set to off as you said
Iinitially it was iimpossible to change "TransmitAudio Source" as it
was not highlighted. I had to fiddle with PTT methods to change to
rear/data. Fixed it once but can not repeat that process now.
The IC-7200 doesn't not support automatic switching by CAT commands to
the rear/USB audio source so this option is disabled for your rig. You
must set the mode and SET menu of the rig to suit your connections. If
you want USB Audio driver modulation via USB to the rig modulator then I
suggest you set the rig SET menu item "Modulation input (Data on)" to
U(USB) and select Mode as "Data/Pkt" in WSJT-X (or if you want to set
mode manually you can set it to "None"). That way when you start WSJT-X
it will select USB-DATA on your rig and the Tx audio will be taken from
teh USB Audio driver bypassing the speech processor and also with its
own level setting with the rig SET menu "USB Level" setting.
All in all no progress so far.

Hi Again Hans,
I forgot to mention,
on Icom rigs you must disable "CI-V Transceive" mode in the rig menu.
That mode is on by default but it generates unsolicited CAT traffic
which causes data collisions and lost CAT conversations.

Hallo,
Hi Hans,
Installing program was easy, but all the rest worse.
Sorry you are having some issues with WSJT-X.
Using ICOM IC-7200 with connection to rig via USB ( Silicon
Labs CP210x USB to UART Bridge) like all other ICOM 7200 and
7600 users. That has worked fine with all versions of
WSJT/WSPR except for this last version of WSJT-X.
'
Settings feels like a random happening sometimes. Options are
there sometimes and sometimes not.
I used:
CAT Control
Serial port COM8 (as usual)
19200 baud 8bits one stop bit no handshake (all as usual)
PTT method CAT Port Com8 (fixed via a roundabout way, not
needed in the older versions .... perhaps neither here ?)
WSJT-X now allows PTT through the CAT port using serial lines RTS
or DTR, or via another serial port using RTS or DTR or if your
rig supports it, via a CAT command. Your rig has the capability
to SEND with a CAT command and I recommend that method to you.
Set the PTT Method to CAT.
Transmit Audio Source: Rig set to data mode expecting info
via USB. Setting Rear/Data ( fixed in a very roundabout way
as it was not reachable and initially set to Front/MIc)
Some rigs use a different CAT command to take transmit audio from
the read data connection, the setting is there for those rigs and
it is only enabled for those rigs. Icom rigs select the Tx audio
source according to the rig modulation mode and via rig menu
settings. I believe the 7200 takes Tx audio from the rear data
socket when USB-DATA mode is selected. You need to change the rig
setting "Modulation input (Data on)" to U(USB) to take Tx audio
from the USB audio driver.
Mode USB (tried the other two settings with no luck)
None - doesn't change the mode of your rig. USB sets the mode to
USB. Data/Pkt sets the mode of your rig to Data. The latter is
the best choice so long as you have selected the correct Tx audio
source in your rig menu.
Split Op None
Test CAT was OK
Test PTT was OK
RX works fine
TX starts with resetting audio out to 0 that is no TX
In recent Windows you must set speaker volume sliders while the
device is active. I recommend setting the level for Tx from teh
USB audio driver from your rig menu item "USB Level".
TX sometimes go on for ever
If you can provide repeatable steps to demonstrate that issue
please report them here,
As I understand it you have changed code to control audio out
setting and rig control compared to all the other versions
Yes we use a new audio subsystem that works much better and is
more consistent across all the platforms we support. Also with
rig control, because advanced dual mode JT9+JT65 and soon to be
released EME Doppler tracking features need tight and accurate
transceiver control, much work has been done to improve the
stability of CAT and PTT functionality.
All the best Hans sm0vyi
