VARA HF resetting Data mod on IC-7100 and IC-7300 #ic7100


 

Hi all,

I've consistently been having an issue with VARA HF resetting my radio's (IC-7100) Data mod to ACC no matter how may times I set it to USB. I'm running Win 10 and VARA HF 4.8.7. A fellow club member has reported the same with his IC-7300.

This issue persists across reinstalls of VARA, the radio USB drivers and the entire Winlink platform. Has anyone else had this issue? If yes, have you been able to fix it?

TIA!

I'm using an IC-7300 and VARA 4.8.7, and I haven't had that problem.

In the WInlink Vara HF Session window, choose Settings, Radio Setup.

There is a checkbox to Use Internal Soundcard.? Be sure that is checked.? Maybe that's the culprit.

This is good advice, you need to look at the application(s) that are controlling the rig for the cause. Vara HF has no ability to change rig settings.

Like many on this forum, I also use Vara/VarAC with an IC-7300, I have no problems at all using it and the mode remains at USB-D.

I am QRV by remote at the moment using Win4Icomsuite with VarAC.

My Kenwood TS890 does that too

Could you be using the default data mode connector settings? (page 12-12 of the full 7300 manual, )
SET>CONNECTORS>DATA OFF MOD
SET>CONNECTORS>DATA MOD

The default connector is ACC for many things, so that's a clue...


 

This sounds like rf to me.? Try chokes on usb cable and antenna system, and grounding radio if you haven't already.

My apologies for the delayed reply folks. It was the default setting. I¡¯d somehow missed fixing that on the 7100. Once I set Data MOD, that cleared it up.

Thank you very much for the assistance.
