Ce-19 data connection


 

The 1/8 stereo plugs that come with this kit are for reaching the recessed keyer jacks right? Mine didn¡¯t come with any and I want to be sure before I order them on eBay?

Hi John,

?

I never had an issue with any of the 1/8¡± stereo jacks on the X5105; any plug fits and works. I did have an issue with the 8-pin mini-DIN ACC connector jack. A standard DIN plug does not seat all the way in. I had to remove the metal shell on the plug for the pins to seat properly. I hope this helps.

The 1/8 stereo plug on my paddles is a standard plug. Looking at the data interface kit it shows 1/8 stereo plugs that have a longer plug with a shoulder. I assumed that was to make tip ring and shield reach through the end plate into the jack. The standard plug on my paddles doesn¡¯t reach. I will find another and try it. Thanks

This is now keying the keyer but not transmitting. It came with ver 1.01.04 Feb 2018. Is there a setting for code practice on this old software that prevents transmit? I wasn¡¯t expecting that. I kept thinking it needed a special plug.

I found the setting for code practice (BK off). Now it¡¯s not receiving. Probably did something but no sign of tx or rx now. Did a factory reset. Probably time to quit for now.

I was able to trim the plastic back on my 8-Pin Mini Din cable so it seated properly in the X5105.

I ended up not using the CE-19 at all, though. I made this cable instead.


The cable plugs into a TRRS USB sound card dongle.


It needed up being a pretty clean setup.

I made the newby mistake. It wouldn¡¯t send cw because it was in practice mode. The 1/8 plug was fine. I bought it used without a manual. Thanks

Hopefully that means you've downloaded the manual.? If not, they're available in this group's FILES section.

I did find the manual for the old 1.0xx firmware. I am waiting on the usb to serial cable to get here from China (that the previous owner lost) so I can update it. Hopefully ver 3.0 will improve the noise on receive. I like the tuner, LCD, and swr scan features.
