Hi guys, I hate to bring up this topic again, but I am kinda stuck.
Our Company Radio Club at The Boeing company got 5 new WinXP PC's to
replace our old Dell's.
But they only have 1 comport and 1 printer port.
I use comport 1 for the Rascal interface for rtty.
LPT-1 is being used for CW.
So I thought that I would use a USB => CIV cable for Rigcontrol.
After I installed the drivers, I plugged in the adapter and Windows
found it and made it comport 3. So far so good.
I used WL setup and said the PROIII was on comport3 and 19.2 baud.
Everything looked good. But NO communications between the rig and the
computer.
So I installed HAM RADIO DELUXE on the computer. It found the comport3,
found the rig and promply displayed the frequency.
Worked like a champ. So I figure the port is ok, the cable is ok and
the proiii is ok. Now Why isn't WL working???
The only thing I can think of and can't find any mention is how do I
turn on DTR or RTS to run te voltage to the USB cable? I am pretty sure
that is the problem.
Anyone have any idea's??
