I downloaded the trial and can connect successfully to the remote but hear no receive audio on my PC
RTP is Green
RRC is flashing
the bar under default moves green left to right
the speaker bar is static at 25% i can drag slider volume but no effect
my setup works great with the control so network is good

Most likely it is related to the Windows settings. Make sure that you are using the correct audio output
under the Microbit program, then right-click on the sound icon on the bottom right and go to playback
devices. Then make sure that the device being used is enabled for playback and adjust the output using
the levels tab.

Also remember that many radio start with volume = 0 when connecting via CAT so you need to set the volume from the control software also. The audio settings in the RRC-micro has no control over the radio

Thank you both for the replys, but I verified windows sound is as it should be and the rigs volume is up.
I will look further

What Mike wrote can also be the problem. Some software also have audio controls and that also needs
to be adjusted. Basically, there are three places where audio should/can be adjusted:
1) in Windows
2) in the software used if it handles sound card modes
3) the RRC Micro client control should be set to the correct sound card and turned up

Thank you Mitch, for the tips
there is only one sound card in the PC
I can immediately switch to other programs and hear audio so I can confirm settings are good
the one and only sound card is selected in the micro client
lastly, this issue shows up on several other pcs and laptops at home and at work
I am NOT running the control end so I am assuming I did not need to have that end turned on
-
I am not 100% sure what you mean by "running the control end". I think you mean having the
control RRC connected. Since you can't use both simultaneously, that would be correct if that is
what you mean.
Then I am at a loss to further help you out. Mike in Sweden should take this over. As an alternative,
I can take a look from here in Florida using Teamviewer. Maybe I can figure it out quickly. If you want
to do that, drop me a mail at dj0qn (at) darc.de.

I found the answer in another topic where it was stated the control head had to be attached to the radio for the micro client to function. Yaesu FT 857
I was trying it separated with RRCs at both ends, however I am at a loss to see how the remote RRC will attach to the radio with the contro lhead in place
UNLESS one uses HRD to control the whole radio.
-
I remember reading that now, but forgot about that strange 857 limitation. I suppose what this
means is that this is either using an RRC and separate control panel, or using the RRC Micro PC Client
and leaving the control panel attached to the radio. All others I know of work where you can do both,
too bad about the 857.
Thanks for teaching me something new.

Hi
It's only TS-480 and IC-7100 which is designed to be controlled via CAT without the front panel attached.
