Problem solved and I would share the solution but I honestly dont know what I changed that allows me to start the ARCP480 and not get the com2 error now onto the next problem good rx audio but no TX audio hihi.

I finally did the upgrade on my RR to 2.95 and it is on my LAN (a spare rig and RR) when I connect to it with RRCmicro the RRC light blinks and the RTP light is on. I start ACRP480 but when I select connect I receive  the message "unknown device on com2 or wrong baud rate"  I have confirmed the speeds are correct. I have confirmed the serial cable is ok and plugged into com 2. I have a combination modem/router supplied by my ISP could it be an issue on a LAN? Ports are forwarded.

On a similar issue a recently installed remote TS480 behaves exactly the same way, its internet is provided by a WISP, we can connect but when we start ACRP480 we receive the same message.  All that being said I do have another  remote installation that works fine with using RRCmicro and ARCP480 which has yet  a different WISP and router. I am at a loss what to try next. I suspect the supplied modem/routers are my problem.

I didn't do the upgrade as I want to do it on site (300km away) I did however do the upgrades to the three control heads I have and they all work fine. I realize they are totally unrelated to RRC micro but the com2 error has disappeared not sure what to say must be the +40C heat wave hihi. Thanks for the quick response and excellent product.

« on: 2021-06-27, 00:49:07 »

Setting up a RRC1258MKII (Ver 2.87) for a friend since he enjoys using mine so much. It works fine with the control head but when we try to use RRCMicro (V1.9.20, RTP1.2.0, 1274B V2.1.0.0 FW 2) we get the message "unknown device connected to com 2 or baud rate in the transceiver does not match the software" when we start ARCP480. I have compared the RRC setup that I used in his new installation to how I have mine configured and at a loss to explain why it wont work. I swapped serial cables from the radio to the RRC1258 with a know good cable and no difference. I have been thru the baud rate settings in the radio and ARCP480 (V1.1) but  don't understand why I receive this message. We can both use our respective CPU's to connect to my station or his station but as soon as we try to connect the ARCP480 software we receive the message.

A friend has used my RRC micro several times on holidays and needs it now when he is in for surgery he received the following message.

"An attempt to load a program with an incorrect format. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007000B)"


He tried a reinstall which may be the source of the problem. CPU is Toshiba running Windows 8.

Thanks Mitch, have you ever tried it or know someone who has?

Does anyone have any firsthand experience using the RRC Micro on a commercial cruise ship? The staff advised the latency was 700ms but I would prefer first hand real world reports from users

Tks

Final solution ....it would appear the only reason I did not have audio was that I did not adjust the volume slider control in the ARCP480 cat software. So to get back to an earlier post where I wanted to only run the RRC Micro because the rig is on a net frequency and never needs CAT control it can not be done you must have CAT control so you can adjust the volume to start the audio when using a TS480. One use of this setup will be for a senior who only wants to be on a net frequency ....and does not like computers we will have to retrain him hihi.  I have noticed several posts that do not seem to have resolutions posted, one post indicated the ARCP480 would not work with the RRC/TS480  I can confirm this is false it works fine ....one rumour down. Thanks to Mike and Mitch for their help it is a thankless job they do.

Some progress I am now able to connect to VE6WZ site, on his recommendation I adjusted the jitter size,delay and packet size I settled on 11, 9 and 40. So this proves I have a viable CPU/sound card combination. Sadly I have made adjustments on my own RRC micro client and have been rewarded with nothing but dead air.

PSS At this point in time I am working on only getting the RCC micro to work CAT is on the back burner a friend is going in to the hospital and I want to get him on HF even with out control of the rig.

I forgot to mention when I am connected to my RRC site status reports "Connection status faulty (see below) UDP CMD status error (0)"

I agree it would appear to be a set up problem in windows, I have tried it on 2 windows 10 cpu's 1 window 7  on two different networks. I have upgraded application firmware on both RRC to 2.91.  I have tried several audio devices( blue tooth headset etc)  I test the audio cards/ devices with windows as well as other audio sources and they work fine. Here is where it gets confusing when Steve VE6WZ sets me up as a contact in his RRC micro he has the same issue I have he can connect but no audio, he uses the same equipment to connect to his site everyday. ....it is a mystery.

I certainly agree setting up the RRC initially is the difficult part usually, I have gone thru the check list and believe I have it set up right I have confirmed the proper speed in the RRC com port as well as in
The ARCP480 and the TS480  Menu.  I am at quite a loss, I spoke to VE6WZ one city to the south he is using a very similar installation with no issues. I can connect with RRC Micro but there is no audio on a windows 10 and 7 CPU using the internal sound card and drivers or with a blue tooth or wifi audio headset (Steve suggested it as a possible solution )  I may take a bit of a break with the xmas season but I will be sure to report the final solution thanks for your help Mitch.

Still no joy here I have the RRC 1258 connected to the TS480 with a serial cable I can connect with RRC micro and have flashing LED's for RTP & RRC but no audio. When I try to connect with ARCP 480 I receive the message " Unknown device connected to COM2 or baud rate in this software does not match transceiver"  I am using ver 2.88 and a 1274B  with windows 7 I have checked that ports are open and checked the speeds in the radio and RRC's. The RRC's work fine with the control face of the TS480 at this QTH  so the system works fine in that sense. Again to confirm I DO NOT need a CPU at the remote site, simply connecting the RRC1258 to the TS480 via a serial cable on COM2 should allow CAT control of the radio with ARCP480.
