Configuration, RRC 1258 / Is anyone running HRD with a remote IC7100 & RR1258?

« Last post by W4AFK on 2024-11-29, 06:23:56 »

I am looking for help from anyone who is using HRD software or Icom's RS-BA1 (or anything) to operate a remote IC-7100 using a pair of RR1258 mk-II and the Icom CT-17 CI-V interface.

I followed all of the instructions and I can't get it to work. The remote control head works fine and so does CW.

The software seems to connect and it does change frequency, but it's VERY slow, incomplete and unusable. This tells me that virtual COM 7 is the right port and it's set to 9600 8n1. I have a 1 Gbps U/D fiber connection on this end and a Cable MODEM on the other (300/20 Mbps).

Path: HRD software --> Win 11 Computer --> USB (virtual COM 7 9600 8n1)--> RR1258 USB (set to COM2 Mode-2,CI-V 9600 8n1, use USB) --> Router+MODEM --> Internet --> MODEM+Router --> RR1258 (set to COM 2 Mode 2 CI-V 9600 8n1) --> Icom CT-17 Interface --> IC7100 radio (Remote)

 - Can I set the COM ports to 19,200? Will the CT-17 interface recognize this?
 - The computer has USB2 and USB3 ports. Can this be the issue?
 - The computer does not have an RS232 port so if I want a direct RS232 to the RR1258, I will need a USB-to/from-RS232 converter anyway

I also tried to use RT-Systems to read or write and it always fails.

Webswitchen startar om efter c:a 2 minuter och jag får felmeddelande: Data Abort at 0x00053260, called by 0x0000ace5
Vad är felet och hur kan jag åtgärda det?
Har laddat in senaste versionen V4.118 men det hjälper inte.

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?

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.

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
