Doing digital with ubitx. kd8cec
Did I read that someone inferred that I can use a usb cable from my computer to the arduino and do some digital qso's with the KD8CEC firmware?
? When I downloaded the ubitx_1.061.zip file and extracted. I encountered 9 ino files.? I think this file (ubitx_20.ino) is the one that I want. but am not sure. Do any other versions of firmware that allow digital directly. from a ubitx or bitx40? |

Load the ubitx_20.ino (all files in the same directory), compile and send to the Arduino. You will need the USB cable a audio cable for the Mic and Spkr and you are ready to go. In wsjt-x and other programs you can select a yaesu ft-817 or ft-857 and it will function. The CEC firmware supports it from load 1.04 I believe. Haven't tried others so can say which will do the same. John |

Dave:
Ian has preferred to stay with the multiple INO files for his code. The "real" INO file is the one you mention...it's the one with setup() and loop() in it. However, you must copy ALL of those files into the same directory for the project to compile correctly. Personally, I get nervous when I have multiple INO files in the same directory, because the compiler doesn't perform type checking during the compile. Sometimes, such errors can be nasty to isolate. I prefer to have only one INO file and all the rest be either CPP or H files so that type checking is done. That said, Ian's code should compile without complaint as long as you have all of the files in a single directory. Jack, W8TEE

¿ªÔÆÌåÓýHi, if you go to and download the
manual for 1.061 there are detailed
Be aware it is for uBITX only. Regards, Rod KM6SN

I think the complex nature of? compiling multiple INOs is why Ian supplies the compiled Hex file which can be directly uploaded.? On Sat, Apr 28, 2018 at 9:41 AM, Rod Davis <km6sn@...> wrote:

The hex file is here. Direct upload, no compiling. He recommends the use of Xloader .? On Sat, Apr 28, 2018 at 10:46 AM, Michael Shreeve <shreevester@...> wrote:

Thanks for the replies.
I have written some ino code for other projects using arduino ide.??For something like this I am out of my league probably. Always run the compile test feature before I upload it. one semicolon out of place and it just doesn't want to run. I assume that the arduino software puts out is the hexadecimal code. Going to look at the xloader software. Seems like something I need? to learn.? Yes this is for my ubitwood, ubitx in Kenwood case. |
