Configuration, Webswitch 1216H / webswitch connection terminals

« on: 2013-09-13, 22:41:46 »

After 60 years experience with making electronics connections to a vast number of circuit boards and devices I find myself stymied by the connection terminals on this unit!  For a 16 amp rating one would think they would take #14 wire, but no.  I only have #14 wire here at the remote location at this time.  Does the wire go above or below the small plate visible in the hole?  I took off a few strands and  I have tried both places above and below the hole and tightened the screw only to find the wire pulls out easily.  What am I doing wrong and why??

Hardware, Cabling, Installations / HRD, Elecraft KPA-500 amp, Elecraft KAT-500 tuner??

« on: 2013-05-14, 06:32:53 »

I have the basic TS480SAT working through the internet now plus a webswitch for turning on/off power supplies and resetting.  Does anyone have any experience with using the Elecraft amp and autotuner with the RRC com ports?  The mode selection info is not very clear to me.  I also want to use HRD with the 480 but no computers at the remote site. Can you use HRD with com0 and the amp and tuner on com1 and com2?  Both amp and tuner have remote control software operating via RS232.

General discussion forum / radio RRC won't connect through the remoterig DDNS

I can connect to the radio RRC using http://my external  IP address:88 but cannot connect using the name provided by remoterig DDNS.

I have no problem connecting to the webswitch using the name provided by the webswitch DDNS.

Configuration, RRC 1258 / Radio RRC thinks its a Control RRC

« on: 2013-05-13, 17:49:31 »

The Radio RRC comes up on the network as Control []  and says there are no Dynamic DNS settings available. Is there a jumper to set to identify it as the radio RRC?  Also the power led on it blinks slowly all the time.

Hardware, Cabling, Installations / relay controlled DB9 switch

« on: 2013-04-21, 17:06:20 »

Is there a relay controlled 2 port DB9 switch which could then be switched through the webswitch?
Just a simple relay switched box without any other circuitry for Ethernet or anything else. This would save modifying a manual switched box by installing relays in it.  Any ideas?
