Configuration, RRC 1258 / K3 mini/K3/logging software problem
« Last post by W2SM on 2025-02-10, 16:54:55 »
I have been running a K3 - Mini to a K3 remote over a LAN for the last 8 years without a problem.
The configuration at the control station is the K3 Mini to the RRC  and a laptop for logging.

Recently, the logging program (DXLab DX Commander) has stopped working.  It can't find the address of the K3.
Everything else is working perfectly... the K3 Mini controls the K3 through band changes, frequency changes, keying etc.

But without the DX Commander "seeing" the K3 Port info, logging is impossible.
I have made no hardware or software, but obviously something changed, but I can't figure out what it is.

I would appreciate any suggestions on how to diagnose and correct the problem.
Thanks,
Jim

Seeing that stocks are slowly running low and out all over Europe during the last year, I can't figure out that RRC-1258 is still in production?

Thank you for the answers.

Perfect.  I'm mainly a CW op, but it would be nice to use the mic if I wanted to.

Yes the jumpers is for the mic so if K4 has the same mic connector config as the K3 you can use the K3 strapping

Thank you!   I will give this a try.  What about jumpers in the units?  Is there a configuration for these, perhaps the K3 configuration?

Yes
Many hams use Remoterig for Flex that way to get the live CW functionality. Set program mode = 4, and if you want the connection to be up forever set auto connect = yes. You do not need to connect anything to the CAT ports, just use PAD jacks Speaker and mic

This topic has been dormant for a while but I'm wondering if something is possible with the K4.  With a couple of TCP/IP utilities plus Hamlib, I have control of virtually every aspect of my K4 from anywhere, but I lack a couple of important things.
- audio streaming (not implemented outside K4 to K4)
- CW keying (I can do this with keyboard input, but I'd like remote keying, ala RemoteRig)
- remote mic input (not high on the list since I work almost exclusively CW)

Would it be possible to use RR boxes "headless" for audio streaming, i.e., to have RR box taking audio from the radio at the remote end and providing keying, and only the RR box at the user end providing audio and keying?  I already have full CAT control of the rig through my logging program and an SSH tunnel. With another ham I am working on a Python clone of K4 Macromaster.  I can turn the radio on and off remotely with some other utilities I developed.  The audio and the keying components are the only thing missing.

The audio output of the K4 has many options, including front and rear headphone jacks, and line in/line out.

I have an RRC-1258 Rev 6 pair.

Yes that was what I said also, but here the hardware for business plan is expensive $2500 + $80/month
