I have seen on previous posts that the K3 Utility program is supposed to work over the RRC CAT link radio K3 configuration, but not for firmware updates. I can live with that but in my case I can't get the K3 Utility to find the K3 at all, even though my logging software can connect and control the K3 just fine using COM1 to COM2 (Mode 7).
The 4 RRC USB virtual ports show up in the K3 Utility, but the K3 does not respond on any of them. When I use the logging program, the K3 responds fine on the the third RRC USB virtual port.
I use the Mac version of K3 Utility, but I have also tried this on a PC with the Windows version of K3 Utility (same result).
Here are my serial settings:
Control Serial settings
COM1 mode Mode-7
COM1 baudrate 4800
COM1 data bits 8
COM1 stop bits 1
COM1 parity 0-Off
COM1 rts/cts Yes
COM1 terminator (hex) 00
Use USB Com Port as COM1 Yes
COM2 mode Logical parallel with COM0
COM2 baudrate 9600
COM2 data bits 8
COM2 stop bits 1
COM2 parity 0-Off
COM2 terminator (hex) 00
Use USB Com Port as COM2 No
COM3 mode (USB-COMFSK) Mode-10, Baudot-RTTY
Remote Serial settings
COM1 mode Mode-7
COM1 baudrate 4800
COM1 data bits 8
COM1 stop bits 1
COM1 parity 0-Off
COM1 rts/cts Yes
COM1 terminator (hex) 00
COM2 mode Logical parallel with COM0
COM2 baudrate 9600
COM2 data bits 8
COM2 stop bits 1
COM2 parity 0-Off
COM2 terminator (hex) 00
Any suggestions?
