Hello OMs
I have to drive two relays at the remote end (radio).
I want to use IN1,2 ports as input (control), and OUT1, OUT2 as outputs (radio).
I cannot have OUT1, OUT2 toggling at the remote side by driving "0" on IN1,2.
OUT1,2 toggle if I set them as ON-OFF on the radio RRC.
On control RRC side I can read correctly the status of IN1 and IN2, but it seems they are not transferred to the radio side.
To make this trial I set the RRCs as transparent mode, Keyer disabled on control RRC, both RRCs on my desk via LAN (they are connected)
I have the following Settings:
Control RRC
Keyer Enable: NO
IN0 Mode: I/O
OUT0 Mode: Connect
OUT1 Mode: I/O
OUT2 Mode: I/O
Radio RRC:
OUT0 Mode: Connect
OUT1 Mode: I/O
OUT2 Mode: I/O
OUT0 in radio side, works correctly (set as "connect")
The devices usually works fine with a IC706 and CW is sent as well with paddles.
I have 2.85 Software version on both RRCs.
I noticed the manual reports OUT1 and OUT2 switched in the I/O connector pin-out, in the Connectors and Control Manual.
I read in the forum this mistake should have been corrected already.
My RRCs were built in 2008, is there any HW difference respect the actual manuals? Any I/O different behaviour?
As side information, I cannot either drive OUT1,2 on control side, by toggling IN1,2 on radio side.
Am I missing anything?
Thanks,
