Been to the one in Rochester quite a bit when I had to do a service call at Eastman Kodak.
Good food!

I am out on a road trip today in search of good pulled pork. (We actually have a place we go to about 1 1/2 hrs from home).
I am available tomorrow if you need help via TeamViewer.

The SteppIR controller is most likely a DTE com port while the Pi is a DCE. You will probably need a null modem adapter.

?More content free data
I rebooted the PI and started Node Red again , I notice the I get an error on boot up that it "can not lock port ttyDEV0", Yet it shows connected in the node-red flow ?????

Dave, WO2X
OK
I removed the TCP Request Node and routed the Inject Node to the HEX to string Converter node. Test that with a simulated KENWOOD serial frequency command string <FA00007150000> and it outputs the desired relay command. in the DEBUG window...So far so good
Next I replace the INJECT node with a Serial-In Node. After the proper baud rates(4800-N-8-1), etc the node registers "Connected". I take the serial cable from a known working connection ( Radio to Stepp-IR controller) and attach it to the USB serial connection on the R-PI. My USB/Serial dongle has a series of LED's in it that allow to me monitor activity. When the frequency is changed the RXD line flickers with activity so I am pretty sure traffic is flowing in to the serial in node but apparently nothing coming out to the HEX/String converter
What did I miss??

Read the comment node for info on replacing the inject and TCP Request nodes with a USB request node for your usb to serial adapter (Kenwood radio CAT needs to connect to the Pi.) If you need to share Kenwood CAT with other programs then you can take the Kenwood CAT payload and send back to a PC. T
Think of Node Red as a flow chart. Input data, pass it to next node, do something with dat, pass it along, do something, etc.
Do Google searches for example Node Red flows, especially for Home Automation. They will give you an idea on how Node Red works. It is very easy once you start playing around. There are plenty of flows in the file section which will give ideas on how to accomplish a number of things.

thanks ...... I'll send another thankyou once I figure out how to load this into my node-red library and what it all means ... 8^)
I finally found a good beginners tutorial <Workshops.opto22.com> which helped me a lot. Though I usually dislike U-Boob videos this kid's Midwest accent was flat enough and his voice had enough bass for my 160M static damaged ears to understand
Thanks again as this sounds exactly what I was going to try and do
Cheers
