Mike tks again. I supposed this was the case. However, if I am using a radio controlled by CAT (COM0 free) the physical RTS/DTR COM 0 signals exist to the user at Radio RRC?

Perhaps they may be directly (internally) connected to PTT/CWkeyer circuitry at the Radio RRC, without been exposed to the user. Is it Correct ?

Thanks Fred

Mike thanks. I understand fully the use of COM ports. I am trying to use most of the Remoterig bulit in ports and I/Os before evaluating how many ports of additional  serial server devices I need.

My point here is that the manual states  how to use RTS and DTR COM 0 signals for PTT and CW, but the signals (RTS/DTR) do not physically exist in the Radio RRC.

Either I am not understanding well COM 0 usage or the manual is incorrect. I am trying to get some light on this.

Best regards and thanks again  Fred

Guys hello

I am preparing my remote station. I would like to have an input on this:

Remoterig has 4 COM ports (COM0, COM1, COM2 and Virtual only COM3). Please validate this:

1) COM0 physically is the TTL port on the interfaces. I use TS480 with detachable head and in this case it is used for communication between the head (panel) and the radio

2) If the about is true, how can I use RTS or DTS of COM0 (which is not physically available in COM0/TTL connector) ?

++Remoterig manual extract attached (page 76)

Many thanks Fred PY2XB
