Hello Bill
This is the answer after execute the command:
C:\WSJT\wsjtx\bin>rigctld-wsjtx -m 3081 -r COM4 -s 19200 -p COM2 -P RTS
-Cptt_share=1
Recommend using --vfo switch for rigctld if client supports it
rigctl and netrigctl will automatically detect vfo mode
rig_open: error =
IO error

Hi Alex,
yes it will work exactly as you require.

Hello Bill
I must PTT a external sequencer via a COM port, I cannot use PTT via CAT
because that will trigger the Radio 1st, I must trigger the external sequencer
via a COM port 1st, then the sequencer has 4 events to manage antenna relays,
preamps, bias in the SSPA and for last PTT the radio, if I use PTT via CAT that
will destroy my preamplifiers.
Your proposal will works?

Hi Alex,
OK, try this. Change "Settings->Radio->Rig" to "Hamlib NET rigctl" and
"Settings->Radio->PTT Method" to "CAT" for each WSJT-X instance you run.
Open a CMD prompt window and type the following command:
C:\WSJT\wsjtx\bin\rigctld-wsjtx -m 3081 -r COMx -s y -p COMz -P RTS
-Cptt_share=1
where 'x' is the CAT serial port number of your IC-9700, 'y' is the CAT baud
rate, and 'z' is the PTT serial port number.
The above command starts a Hamlib rig control server to serve your IC-9700 with
Hamlib clients over a network connection. The adjustment to WSJT-X radio
settings tells WSJT-X to communicate with the rig control server you have
started, and also to do PTT via that server. You may get a message from your
firewall application to asking to allow rigctld-wsjtx to accept network
connections, which you should allow.
Do not start Omni-Rig, you do not need it.
This will do exactly what you need, you can make a short batch script
containing the above command to start the Hamlib rig control server.
If you are only using a single instance of WSJT-X the next release of WSJT-X
will allow you to configure that instance to talk directly to your for CAT
control while allowing other applications to access the PTT port when WSJT-X is
not asserting PTT. For now, or if you use multiple WSJT-X instances; the
approach above will work.

Hello Bill
Yes I use only 1 CAT controller transmitter, the IC-9700, I don’t have any
other CAT application accessing my Transceiver.

Alex,
let me try again as you have not answered my question. I will qualify it a bit
which may help.
Are you only using one CAT controlled transmitter and is that your IC-7900?
Do you have any other applications that require CAT access to your
transceiver(s)?
Note by CAT control I do not mean simple PTT control using a serial port
control line like RTS or DTR alone.
