Configuration, RRC 1258 / Re: ts 480 not transmitting

« Last post by JJ8LNX on 2024-11-22, 07:52:31 »

I am also in a similar situation.
When I press PTT, up to RRC-1258 is recognized as transmitting, but the TS-480 does not enter the transmitting state and remains receiving.
If you connect the microphone directly to the TS-480, it will be able to transmit normally.
From this, it can be seen that this is an anomaly in RRC-1258.
However, if the condition suddenly developed and two other people besides me were experiencing the same symptoms, there must be some fatal cause, so I would like to find out the cause.

In addition, when I output the settings from the RRC-1258 where the error occurred and replaced it with the one that input the settings to another RRC-1258, I was able to use it normally.
Is it some kind of hardware problem?

Configuration, RRC 1258 / Sending WAV voice messages

« Last post by VA2EBI on 2024-11-20, 21:12:59 »

I regularly use N1MM Logger to send stored MC files as CW messages via F-key activation.  I have stored voice messages in my computer as WAV files.  How can I connect the computer soundcard output (via the headphone jack) to the RRC?  I assume a cable with micro-plug input and RJ-45 connector that can plug into the I/O port.  Need cable advice and I/O settings.  Anyone?

General discussion forum / Ethernet Wifi

« Last post by m0wnt on 2024-11-19, 01:17:21 »

Hi Guys,

I use to use the remoterig on a ic-7100 via wifi at the control end and everything worked perfectly well.

I purchased a ft-8900 and set it up using remoterig and on ethernet it works perfectly well, But when i use it on Wifi i keep getting dropouts and choppy audio.

I set the audio codec to zero reduce bandwidth but still get same issue.

Wifi is running from a router remotely with a 67mb connection from the control end and a 1GB connection at the Body end.

Wifi is still a issue if both units are running from the same router. Ethernet is perfectly fine.

I was wondering if anyone else have this problem, or might give me a solution for a fix.

Configuration, RRC 1258 / IC7100 + CT-17 ... what baud rate?

« Last post by W4AFK on 2024-11-18, 05:13:26 »

I followed instructions and set the COM port to 9600 8n1. I have not been able to get HRD or Icom's RS-BA1 software to work with the remote radio. When it does, it's VERY slow and HRD doesn't even show the S-meter

This works:
IC7100 control head (CI-V set to 9600) --> RR1258 --> router+MODEM+Internet --> RR1258 --> IC7100 radio

This struggles and almost never works:
Computer w/HRD ot RS-BA1 (COM 7 at 9600 8n1) --> USB port RR1258 --> router+MODEM+Internet --> RR1258 COM 2 --> Icom CT-17 (RS232 to CI-V) --> IC7100 radio (remote jack)

- Does your remote woirk at 9600 bps? Or do you set the radio, computer and RR to higher? If so, what data rate?

- If faster, will the Icom CT-17 recognize the change or do I need to changer any internal settings/jumpers?

Not an asnwer but a question. Can you help me with my remote setup? I replaced a TS-480SAT remote (which worked fine) with the IC-7100, and I am struggling.

However, I have NOT been able to get WSJT to work. Even HRD or Icom's RS-BA1 struggles.

Can you share how you got your remote IC-7100 to work with WSJT.

My setup:

This works:
IC7100 control head --> RR1258 --> Router+MODEM --> Internet --> MODEM+router --> RR1258 --> Icom CT-17 --> IC7100 radio
I also have Morse Code and that works fine.

This doesn't work
WSJT on computer --> USB (via COM 7, 9600 8n1) --> RR1258 --> rouer+MODEM --> Internet --> MODEM+router --> RR1258 --> Icom CT-17 --> IC7100 radio.

I plan to setup Virtiual Audio Connection (VAC v4.70). I do have SignalLink but I was told (?) that the VAC would feed the audio to/from the RR1258 via the USB connection

This also fails ... (can't connect,  or very slow, or connects with errors, no S-meter, etc.)
HRD (licensed and current) on computer --> COM 7 (9600 8n1)--> RR1258 USB --> router+MODEM --> Internet --> MODEM+router --> RR1258 --> Icom CT-17 --> IC7100 radio

Icom RS-BA1 (licensed and current) on computer --> USB (COM 7, 9600 8n1) --> RR1258 USB --> router+MODEM --> Internet --> MODEM+router --> RR1258 --> Icom CT-17 --> IC7100 radio

This never worked (to remotely program the radio)
RT-Systems software on computer -->  COM 7 (9600 8n1) --> RR1258 USB --> router+MODEM --: Internet --> MODEM+router --> RR1258 --> Icom CT-17 --> IC7100 radio. I tried "slow"and "fast"but the radio always fails and I need to load what I had saved on the SD-card

I am looking for any help from those who have sunnessfully remoted their IC-7100 for voice and data using a pair of RR1258 mk-II

Configuration, RRC 1258 / Re: ts 480 not transmitting

« Last post by OH6FSG on 2024-11-15, 08:13:28 »

I have had same issue 2 weeks ago.  The reason was simple but not very obvious. In the Radio end, one setting was changed. Codec out gain was 0, should be 255. This has happened once before after few weeks shutdown.

Configuration, RRC 1258 / RRC1258-MkII RJ45 AUX/MIC leds blinking - burned?

« Last post by cx6vm on 2024-11-13, 19:30:26 »

hello

continuing with my station problems, today I noriced that the remoterig box at the remote side is not working.

I bring it at home to test it, connected to power and the red and yellow leds on the RJ45 AUX/MIC are blinking

I connected it to Microbit setup manager and I read a text in red "look ForHids()"

I do GET FROM DEVICE and nothing happen

Any idea what´s the problem and how to solve it?

thanks in advance!!
