I have RemoteRig to send and receive audio and CW from my Ten Tec Orion II that will soon be operated by remote using a 1.5 MBPS wireless LAN. The radio will be controlled by a computer at the remote location over the WLAN using N4PY client/server software, so I will have the serial port and TTL ports unused. I want to be able to send FSK keying to the Orion using RemoteRig. What is the best way to do this? My current settings are:
IN0 Mode = Keyer
OUT0 Mode = I/O
OUT1 Mode = I/O
OUT2 Mode = I/O
USB RTS as PTT = NO
USB DTR as PTT = NO
I currently use a parallel port through a transistor to directly key the FSK input on the Orion. Can I directly connect to pin 4 the RRC-Control I/O port then key the radio with pin 5 of the RRC-Radio I/O port? Will the keying timing be accurate enough for FSK?
Thanks,
Ron N6IE
