[Dx4win] IC735 remote control

[Radivoj Kar, F6GNZ]

Hi,

With a precious help of Jim Hargrave , W5IFP, the problem was solved! 

1. Original IC735.rig files in dx4win  versions 8.04 and 8.05 are WRONG! Rig timeouts occur regularly with these versions, whatever polling time and retries numbers are chosen. Good file was found by Jim in version 8.01 and maybe was also good in earlier dx4win versions.

2. With the good dx4win ver 8.01 rig file, to 
obtain log window's band/mode to reflect changes on the rig selections, a 
lot of combinations of polling times/retries were tried. In some of 
them, like with default polling time of 5000ms, it was required to open 
the radio frequency setup window and click on "read" to make logging 
window reflect the changes. The combination that works automatically and FB, without having to open the frequency setup window, , is 350ms and 3 retries (set in Radio Preferences). Some other close to these numbers may work also, but this one works all the time in my case)

3. Speed in ic735.rig  file and preferences was changed from 1200 bps to 
9600 bps and JU22 in radio was also set to 9600 bps (left position 
contacts). Also, "ci-v transceive" jumper in radio ( the last contacts on the 
right) was left ON.

RMX: transceiver band/frequency will not be reflected correctly in logging window if radio is tuned to a frequency out of HAM band limits, which is OK.


Now, I am haaaaappy again...... :)
