CAT Isolated?
|
Hello everyone,
I bought a second hand Yaesu FT847 and then I was build a isolated interface for DATA IN/OUT port. It works very well but I haven't build null modem cable for CAT control.
I am not familiar with the CAT communication protocol. I use FTDI for PTT control. In FTDI, RX and TX ports are empty and I want to use these ports because I want to using interface one USB cable. Of course, using optocoupler. How can I do it? How should I connect the optocouplers or what kind of circuit should I create?
Thx and 73.

Thx Jeff for answering. It will work fine but I want to isolate between PC and Yaesu.?Does this null modem cable (FTDI,Profilic,CH340 etc.) provide isolation between the PC and Yaesu? As far as I know it doesn't.

I found that RT Systems programing software provided a USB to serial interface for the FT-847. Also enabled PCSat32 (and Ham Radio Deluxe)? to work fine.? 73 Dennis VE3XC

Yes, too bad for Paypal, I stop use it also... Otherweis, it is Vesselin Kotarov LZ5VK (vesselin@...) who is conceptor of this interface.
