Configuration, RRC 1258 / K3/Mini Sound and Serial problem
« on: 2016-03-20, 19:03:02 »
Hi,
last days I changed the transeiver at my home remote location to the K3 and using the K3/Mini to control the remote radio.
The setup is not new and it worked as suggested, in CW.
But I like to use the setup in SSB as well. I am using a Heil Pro Micro attached at the Mini without any success. I have tried several settings on remote site as well on the control site (setting the K3/Mini in local config by pressing MENU longer than two secounds) But I will not get any audio to the K3... I tested full MIC gain with full Comp settings, not generating any output... Using the RRCMicro, audio is working, so I suggest the remote site is fine...
Can anybody tell me the correct local setting for the K3/Mini (rP or fP)? Or do you have any other suggestion?
Second problem is to control the remote site via CAT commands from the logging software. I have COM1 parallel to COM2 (or the recommended setting, I am not sure in the moment and i cannot confirm it right now) and can control the rig via COM1 to USB. But I like to attach my serial port directly the RRC on COM1. I changed COM1 to USB to no, but without any success. I also changed the normal serical cable to a null modem cable with a gender changer, nothing works. Set all the things back to USB, it works...
Who can give me any hints to solve my problems?

EDIT: I have a second RRC control unit here, with the same results...
