Re: Sbitx rig control from laptop?


 

Jack, I now have the "0.1" version of CAT control for the sBitx from legacy programs, via an emulation of an ICOM, available.
I believe it does what you were looking for.
See:? ?/g/BITX20/message/108957

You will need to make up an interface cable with a UART at each end, and then just connect the TX line from one to the RX line of the other.? ?Don't connect the +5V lines at all.? ? Just the signal lines (crossed) and ground.? ? ??

This is a very simple beginning so it isn't fancy at all.? ? Others might know how to make it much more "user friendly" with an icon, changes to ports etc.? ?I don't.? ?I just have it working quite nicely with the legacy program of interest to me, Winlink (and their server programs should work also, and soon ION2G should work).

Let me know any comments,
