« on: 2010-07-16, 12:02:09 »
Anyone have tested linear amplifier Expert 2K-FA with remoterig?  This new model has not RS232 but USB. Is possible the comunication with a normal converter rs232-usb?  Thank you. 73 de IK4ADE Franco

I believe it also has a serial port as well.

Sorry Mitch, the db9 access that you look on the rear panel is not RS232 but for control box of Stepp IR.
Do you know some tested rs232-usb converter? Do you know about some accessory that has a IP adress where you can arrive to Expert 2K-FA controls?

Franco,

It is hard to say, because:

a) I do not believe that SPE has shipped any of these yet, so I doubt that anyone has tested this out.
b) They don't have a download area for manuals

It would probably be best to post your question on the SPE Yahoo Group, or write Dante or Gianfranco a mail directly and ask him.
