Title: K3/0 and win-test
Post by: kl0r on 2019-10-29, 20:16:39
Hello everyone...

I did a search on this topic and found this thread: http://www.remoterig.com/forum/index.php?topic=5908.0 ...

I assume that it isn't being monitored anymore... So I will state my issue, and perhaps get some answers... thanks in advance!

I have a K3/0 and a pair of RRCs... I have them working with a remote radio across the internet. I want to be able to use win-test with this installation... but it wasn't obvious to me how to do that from the above thread.

Here is what I would *LIKE* to do... I would like to be able to take the USB port on the K3/0 and go to my computer and use win-test from there... Ideally I would be able to get CAT and key CW on that USB serial connection. I have tried configuring that, but I have been unsuccessful. My computer sees two com ports when I plug in the USB cable... and I have tried configuring win-test to the data rates on each com port, but with no luck. To the extent that I can tell, my RRCs are configured as stated in the previous thread... but I must admit that I am new to this product, so it is possible, even likely, that I don't know what I am doing.

Here's a grab of my serial configuration at the control end:

You can not use the K3/0 mini's USB port with RemoteRig and must use the instructions that
are in the link that you posted. Otherwise, it will not work!

Since you can use the RRC's USB cable instead, what's the issue?

Well, as I mentioned above, it is likely I don't know what I am doing... that is probably proof, there...

I can't tell you the number of old USB cables I've thrown out... I wonder if I can find one now...

Thanks!
