Micro PC and IC706 with detached front panel
« on: 2015-03-18, 18:03:40 »
Hello guys,
i am using an ic706mk2g at the radio site connected to a rrc-1258mkii. The front panel from the ic706mk2g ist connected to the second rrc-1258mkii at my home. All works great via internet. I want to use now a Micro pc client to control the radio from my computer on various qths. It seems that this does not work, because the radio is off. Is there a possibility to switch the radio on with the micro pc client or using hrd? Can this be done with the front panel attached remotely at my home qth and not connected direct to the radio.

No it can't be done. We tried in the begining to simulate that the frontpanel was there from the RRC, but we did not manage to find out everything which was needed to make the radio happy. Of course it's possible but not to a resonable cost.
