Hi,
I had been often asked about that,?and now,? I am facing the question myself:
How to get the band data out from Logger32, so that it can be used for an amplifier to follow the band the Radio/Logger32 is on?
Naturally, getting that directly from the radio is not possible?as there is no such an option,? so the only way to make it is using a PC's COMport.
Perhaps there is some kind of bridge-software or so, please?
Best regards, Alec SP2EWQ
|
If your amplifier can read RS232 commands, then Logger32 has a slave port that can pass the CAT commands out on another COM port.? Search for ¡°slave¡± in the help file. 73¡¯ Pete, N(KD.?

Pete,
thank You very much indeed!
It is a 15 pos. D-Sub on the Amplifier?as the Amp can use?some five or six?serial data formats. I have already prepared a COMport-D-Sub interface cable for a Kenwood protocol, which I considered most commonly used on amplifiers.
So, I need to test that configuration...
Big thanks, again, for the hint...
Best regards, Alec?

Hi,
I need Your expertise on the Slave port set-up,?because I feel something I may have set incorrectly.? I have not yet connected?the amplifier to?the port, so its response to the commands is still unknown to me.
The Slave port set-up is as follows:
It resulted in following the frequency changes of VFO A:
and it is how the radio port has been configured:
My questions:
1. Should?  ?show the frequency?data? 2. Is there a way to forward frequency data to the slave port ? ? while using WSJT-x connected to Logger32 via the UDP port and the Radio-port closed, ? ? please?

1) If there was a radio connected to the slave port, and the slave polling option was configured, the slave frequency and slave mode fields would be populated.
?
2) If there was something connected to the slave port, the data you see in the debug window would be sent. Yes, there is code (probably untested) that takes frequency changes from JTDX UDP messages and sends then to the slave port (easy enough to test).

Or something like that. SeventyThree(s.

Bob,
big thanks for the answers - appreciated very much.
1. Absolutely clear - thank You.
2.?I tested that (without the amp connected, however) and there was no command shown in the Slave-port debug window when WSJt-X/JTDX took over the Radio-port.
Does that code forward the UDP generated frequency commands without showing them in the Slave-port Debug window, please?

I opened the slave port with the radio on 6m.

I swtched JTDX to 15m FT8

I see this:

My radio has no CAT, so none of these messages to the slave port are as a result of sending/receiving CAT messages to/from the radio.
