Configuration, RRC 1258 / Re: Icom IC-7100 CW not working

« on: 2014-06-10, 22:23:46 »

Found the problem.
 

Went over config again..
IN0 mode in IO Settings was set to Keyer. It works for TS-480. Does not work for IC-7100
Set it per manual - to I/O for IN0 both in Control and Radio.

So, I'm still a very happy RRC-user :-)

Many thanks Mike,  for the suggestion.

Yes, I would also believe so - but, so far no luck.

If I can ask - If any of the straps or dip-switches on remote should be wrong - which one should I check first?
Non technical help on my remote site, so I need to be precise if I should have the Radio-RRC checked.

I also have thought about resetting the whole system, but then I need USB attached at the Radio-RRC.
This since when I shourtcut the CW-lead from Radio-RRC to CW-key input on the radio, CW is generated successfully.
This is the reason why it seems like CW is not generated out of the pad-connection at Radio-RRC.

Configuration, RRC 1258 / Icom IC-7100 CW not working

Hi,

Running a Icom IC-7100 remotely.
Cannot get the radio to key up in CW mode.
I have sidetone on Control side.

When I pull the cable on Radio side, there is life - so using a key directly to the radio works.
Seems like CW is not generated out of PAD port to the Radio.
At control side I both use a bencher via Pad port and N1MM to generate CW via I/O port.
Both does not key up the radio.
Per manual menu in radio is set to straight key.
Using internal Memory Keyer in radio does send CW.

This solution worked 100% in an TS-480s environment.
I just re-strapped and used the same cable for CW-keying at Radio side for IC-7100 usage

Everything else works like a dream - also CW-keying via control-head. But. latency will some time make it difficult.

What am I missing here?
