![]() With the K3S's meter in ALC mode, transmitting into a dummy load or on a dead band, set the Windows level control for the USB Audio Codec's "speaker" output and/or the K3S's MIC gain control to get 4-5 bars of indication on the ALC meter. In the K3S, with the rig in either AFSK A or DATA A, make sure MAIN:MIC SEL is set to LINE IN, and rotate the MIC gain knob so that the setting is not at zero (somewhere between LINE 5 and LINE 10 is usually good). ![]() You must configure the sound card settings in fldigi to use the rig's USB Audio Codec for both receive and transmit (capture and playback). You want to do that without extra audio cables, so your only choice for a sound card is the USB audio codec inside the rig. ![]() Fldigi needs a sound card to do its thing, and the audio to and from the rig needs to get into that sound card. Fldigi is not automatically installed with N1MM Logger+ if you want to use it, you must download and install it. The team sometimes gets queries about why the Logger’s CW won’t work with software or interface units that feed audio tones to a transceiver. ![]() The first, Fldigi by W1HKJ, is also one of the digital engines that is supported by the Logger for digital modes. In the N1MM+ Configurer, using the Set button for the COM port you are using for rig control, check the check box that says PTT via Radio Command Digital Mode. N1MM Logger+ supports three different CW reader programs, or engines. Everything went well in the configure tab, followed the directions in the N1MM help guide, but when I open the digital interface tab under the window tab, it tells me that the path to fldigi is not set and when I click OK it all closes so that I cannot change anything in the digital interface. The simpler of the two is by radio command. Since you said you don't want to use VOX (the simplest choice), you have two other choices using the USB cable. You will also want to set the Mode Control in the N1MM+ Configurer to select the correct modes - Mode sent to radio for RTTY will be AFSK (this will put the K3S into AFSK A when the program is in RTTY mode), and for PSK will be PSK (this will put the K3S into DATA A when the program is in PSK mode). Check that N1MM+ can read the frequency from the rig as you rotate the knob on the radio, and that you can change bands on the radio from N1MM+. That is the port number you need to configure for rig control in N1MM+. When using the MMVARI or Fldigi engine, the mode will be as selected in the MMVARI or Fldigi window (digital modes only for Fldigi). If there is more than one port listed there, you can tell which one is the correct one by unplugging the cable for half a minute or so and plugging it back in while watching Device Manager to see which port number disappears and reappears as you do this. Plugging the cable into the rig and powering up the rig should cause Windows to install a driver for the K3S's USB to serial adapter if it hasn't already done so, and the COM port number assigned to the port by Windows will show up in the Windows Device Manager under Ports (COM & LPT). If you don't already have this working, then to do it using the USB cable the K3S's CONFIG:RS232 needs to be set to USB. Being 81 years old, time is a valued commadity to me and I would like to get back on the air as soon as possible.Instead of looking for a cookbook recipe, try working through what functions are needed and how to implement them. > I hope there is someone, smarter than me figured out the settings and willing to share it. > I have not been able to control the K3 to send cw or rtty. > After days of hard work, finally N1MM+ is displaying the radio's frquency. > I didn't follow my own advice and upgraded my K3 to K3s. > I learned from past experience, "never to upgrade" unless you are forced to. ![]() See the WSJT Decode List window documentation for setup instructions for using WSJT-X or JTDX with N1MM+. For FT8, FT4 and other WSJT modes, you must use WSJT-X or JTDX as the digital program. Everything worked fine, even my SteppIr followed my K3. For PSK31 and other non-WSJT digital modes, you can use MMVARI or fldigi as the digital engine, with no special setup required. > I used to have a fine functional K Line station. Settings/configuration of the K3(s) for use with the E980297 cableĪre shown on page 19 of the K3S Owners Manual. ThenĬonfigure all of your other hardware ans software *exactly* like Use the Elecraft supplied E980297Ĭable to convert the RJ-45 jack to a DE9 (RS-232) connection. ![]()
