Transmitting RF before the preamp switches out of RX mode would destroy the preamp. For example, if I keyed the rig directly with footswitch, I can't delay PowerSDR TX until the external sequencer finished. I had to choose this method because PowerSDR doesn't delay the actual internal PTT from the hardware PTT. The transverter switches the power amplifier. The sequencer handles the proper switch timing for the preamp, transverter and rig. My solution was to modify my homebrew sequencer to accept two inputs one from the computer's COM port RTS line and one from my footswitch. (Missing feature) Protecting our mast mounted preamp is my main goal and I need to switch things from two inputs. Additionally, there is no way to delay the internal PowerSDR TX from the external HW or CAT PTT inputs. As of Sept 2, 2010, the Flex 1500 has a bug that doesn't allow a delay on the flexwire PTT out. We plan to use the Flex 1500 to feed a transverter for the upcoming ARRL September VHF contest.

On the plus side, the conifguration is fine for driving an external amp because you want to drop the RF first, then drop the AMP so you don't hot switch.īottom line - don't need this stuff in the next section below anymore! This adds an unnecessary delay when switching from TX to RX. Since I use the hardware PTT to control the sequencer, the sequencer can't start until after the delay. Meaning, the hardware PTT won't drop until after the delay. The only drawback is FLEX didn't give us a way to set the drop delay.

You may want to refer to the overall system diagram. Second, CW is fixed and works great! You can key the rig via N1MM without a winkey box. This allows the sequencers to switch before the RF appears. N1MM only allows COM1-COM8, so plan accordingly.įlex fixed the two main bugs, which makes this work around obsolete! The delay on the PowerSDR antenna form now delays the internal Flex PTT from the PTT IN signal. You need three pairs, one pair for CAT control, CW and PTT. A footswitch and COM1 are inputs to the sequencer. The sequencer handles keying for the preamp, transverter (Elecraft) and Flex 1500. For the VHF contests, I used COM1 with the Flex 1500 (not 5000A) to key an external sequencer. I was NOT able to use the same port for the CW and CAT. Windows -> Cable 1 -> Flex TX audio to the FlexĬOM8 -> COM18 - use for PTT (Not sure about this) When you're done, you'll have two virtual audio cables that we will use like this: Use the control panel in VAC to set up two cables. VAC provides virtual cabling between the Flex 5000A and Windows. The audio configurations in these pages are still valid. However - if you get stuck and need to separate out the control signals, the method described in this wiki may be helpful. Note, I had to restart N1MM after I made the configurations as per the article.

The following article shows you how to use a single COM port to take care of both the CAT and keying controls.

For example, it's possible to parse APRS data and send messages to the operators via N1MM. So it's possible to emulate a N1MM station and exchange 'instant messages'. I used wireshark to sniff the N1MM network protocols.
