General discussion forum / How can I use RC-1216H Rotorcontrol and Log-Software Rotor control together?

« Last post by DL6RDM on 2025-05-08, 08:09:29 »

Hello OMīs!

Following situation:

We use a RC-1216 to rotate a Yaesu G1000 manually over the web. The RC-1216 is connected via serial cable direct to the rotor-interface.
Now we would like to add an automated rotor control by our Log-software UCX-Log. We need an additional serial port from the pc to the rotor interface for this.
So, when a key is pressed within UCX Log, the rotor should start to turn.
But the original manual control via web page should still be possible.

I am not shure if it will work, if I just switch the serial cables of the RC-1216 and the PC parallel to the rotor-interface?

Can anybody give me some advice please?

Best 73s,

Chris, DL6RDM

Hello Mel,

I had the same problem more times with the same RRC from a friend.

Please read this post, (especial the last message) maybe it helps you:
https://www.remoterig.com/forum/index.php?topic=7272.msg33500#msg33500

Best way is to start this way I guess...

General discussion forum / Re: IC-7100 won't turn on but SIP connected

Hi
send export settings(html) files to support@remoterig.com so I can have a look. The jumpers are not important for IC-7100 but the red wires must be connected  correct in the Radio-RRC. If the JMP5 is not there the boxes are >13 years oold so they may have been damaged in a earlier life if you have bought them used.

General discussion forum / IC-7100 won't turn on but SIP connected

« Last post by KB8CR on 2025-05-03, 07:43:18 »

We are trying to set up an IC-7100 with the RemoteRig boxes.  The control box has the PC board for the newer 7100 head, and we configured the radio box as per the manual.
One thing that is not present on either of the boxes is the J-5 jumper. (Apparently that started with V7 of the board?). So we could not set that jumper per the manual as it is not present on the board.

When I push the power button, the status shows connected
BUT the radio does not turn on?

Any help?

Hi
Yes check the manual. You need a cable from the Radio-RRC to the IC-7100 which should be set to use straight Key. With a standard 3.5 mm stereo cable OUT2 should be set to Keyer in the Radio-RRC

General discussion forum / IC-7100 CW via Remoterig

« Last post by UR5FLN on 2025-05-02, 00:27:27 »

Hello Gents,
I use IC-7100 many years with Remoterig and it worked perfect, but now I need to use CW with that setup. If I connect key to IC-7100 like normally via KEY socket on back of "Head" there is so frustrating delay, and work in CW is not possible. When I connect manipulator to radio control box it is producing only dots and radio never go to TX. I am using "Straight" (Old school bug) manipulator. Is it necesary to connect cable on a radio side direct from Radio Control Box to TRX? if I want to setup CW via remoterig boxes? Setup via web interface done both sides radio and remote but it does not work.
Thanks for any ideas.

Configuration, RRC 1258 / Ethernet connection dead

« Last post by Mel KJ9C on 2025-04-28, 19:13:10 »

Radio RRC1258MkII went down 2 weeks ago. Troubleshooting via Teamviewer could not help.
Now at the radio site 1600 miles from control site. USB connection shows all is OK using Microbit setup interface to PC. Yellow/red lights are off, front green light is blinking slowly, Ethernet light on rear is steady yellow awaiting connection. LAN settings all agree (IP, subnet mask, etc) but the network does not see the RRC and therefore won't connect.
What to try next?

Configuration, Webswitch 1216H / Re: Webswitch 1216H Corrupted Profile

« Last post by K0LO on 2025-04-12, 16:12:30 »

I found a way to remove the corrupted profile. I could not find a way to delete the corrupted profile, but I found an alternative. Using Microbit Setup Manager, connect to the switch using USB. Then copy a known good profile over the bad profile. This worked. Afterwards, edit the copied profile.

Configuration, Webswitch 1216H / Webswitch 1216H Corrupted Profile

« Last post by K0LO on 2025-04-10, 17:35:03 »

Is there any way to completely remove a corrupted profile from a WebSwitch 1216H? If you look at my attachment "Webswitch-1216H-settings.txt" you can see a list of Relays that goes in this sequence: Relay 1,2,3,4,5,6,6,7,8,9,10. There should only be relays 1 - 5. If you view my other attachment "Corrupted Profile.png" you can see another example of the corruption.

The other profiles work correctly, but I don't want remote users to accidentally select this profile. I've tried connecting via USB and using the Microbit Setup Manager but I can't seem to delete this rogue profile. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Mark
