TS480 dual control and CW latency

[SV1DH]

I have TS480 already remotely running using the KENWOOD s/w for funcion control and the IP-SOUND s/w for sound transfer, via the RS232 and DATA TS480 connectors. My question is if REMOTERIG pair can be used alternatively via the proposed h/w configuration (panel, mic and key TS480 connectors), WITHOUT disconnecting the above existing PC h/w connections?
Also I would like to ask what is the estimated overall (minimum) latency on CW, if the particular path INET residual latency is approx. 20ms?

Hi

Yes you can use your existing PC-control via the RRC RS-232  ports in parallell with the Control panel.

The latency when using CW added by the Remoterig system it self is almost nothing, about 1ms.

But the system handling CW, the local built in keyer and sidetone generation and the buffering on the Radio side eliminates the problem with the Internet latency also. Instead you can add a little buffering time to your 20 ms to get a margin against jitter.
