Re: IC-PW1 configuration in DXLabCommander


 

+ AA6YQ comments below
However, when I turn the I am having trouble setting up my IC-PW1 in DXLabCommander. Please help.
I am not good at English. I am writing this with translation software, so sorry if the text is strange.
?
I want to connect IC-PW1 and SteppIR to IC-7600, but the frequency control of IC-PW1 does not work together even if I set DXLabCommander and IcomPW1 control as described in the manual.
IC-7600 (Primary CAT Serial Port) is connected to PC (DELL Win11) via USB port (COM X) and IC-PW1 and SteppIR (Secondary CAT Serial Port) are connected via USB interface to the same COM port (COM Y). The IC-7600 is connected to the PC (DELL Win11) via the same COM port (COM Y).
After the initial setup, when the IC-7600 and IC-PW1 are turned on, the PW1 alert lights up, and after clicking it, they can be controlled in power off and on again, the AUTO LED on the IC-PW1 is lit, but the PW1 alert on the DXLabCommander is not lit and the frequency control is not linked. Then, when the frequency is changed using the UP or DOWN switch on IC-PW1, the PW1 alert lights up, and when the AUTO LED is turned on again and the PW1 alert is clicked, the frequency control is linked.
Also, sometimes, when the power is turned on again, PW1 alert lights up and when clicked, it works correctly.
?
This is the situation. Please let me know how to set it up so that I can control it correctly.
+ DXLab documentation for controlling an IC-PW1 is here:



+ As a first step, I suggest the you configure Commander to control your IC-PW1 -- but not your SteppIR.

+ Furthermore, I suggest that you not attempt to change frequency by using the PW1's Up and Down buttons; to change frequency, use your transceiver or Commander.

+ After you have Commander reliably controlling your PW1, we can discuss how to add control for your SteppIR.
