Hi Tom,
Some good news Tom! I am back to running 4800 8N1, no handshake. I have checked comms with a simple terminal, and it appears to work. However, I just get a
after I send a
however, comms is working.
The band map works! If I click it changes the frequency and mode. So we are getting there! brilliant. However, QRG and mode in the main RUMLog screen does not change, and one can't change frequency by typing in and pressing enter in the empty call sign box. That is ignored.
Tom, I can say that you are correct, the
must be working, because, when I change anything in the TRX, the light flickers showing data is going to the computer. Also, on an active band, with the S meter moving, the light flickers in time with that. So CAT control is working for the FT-450, just not the with frequency entry in the main screen, nor is QRG or mode updated automatically.
So, to summarize;
- * Band Maps clicking works as expected, frequency and mode is changed on TRX as it should.
* Clicking on DX Spot works, TRX does change to appropriate frequency and mode, and RUMLog QRG is updated.
* The AI1; directive does work, as data is being sent from the radio with every event change.
* Direct frequency and mode entry in RUMLog screen does not work.
* QRG and mode in main screen is not updated when radio is changed, either manually or via band map click.
So, actually, RUMLog does work with the Yaesu FT-450, but the QRG is not updated automagically from the rig, or I am doing something wrong ...
I am not sure if you need the FT-450.xml after all, you are doing this correctly, as the clicking in DX Spots and Band Maps work. It is just the updates from the rig that don't appear to be showing up in RUMLog, event though data appears to be sent.
Thanks again for the help! Lets hope we get this nailed once and for all.
