Cat Control with WSJT

Post by GBRENT »

Updated KE9NS software to ver 2.8.0.212 on my Flex 5000. Can't get WSJT to control VFO on Flex. I get communications error - timed out. Before upgrade worked fine. VSP mgr shows com ports pair and DDUtil connections, but when I specify other half of pair for WSJT I get error. Any ideas? Thanks. Gerry WA6E

Go and update to the current latest .218
Then go to the setup->cat control page.
Depending on how old your working version of PowerSDR was prior, I changed the CAT control and added a bunch of Cat control ports.

In most instances you will not need to use DDUtil anymore, since I now multiplex 6 of the COM port pairs from within PowerSDR itself.

Go to my webpage and click on the virual serial link. It shows my setup with WSJT-X as the example.
