Hello again,

I have the following problems:
When I click on a spot either on the band plan or in the spot window. The
callsign turns up in the Callsign field in the loging window. The frequency
and the mode changes but the frequency goes back to the initial, i.e. the
one on the radio had at start while the mode changes to the one the station
I was clicking on had.

Eg. if the radio is on 14040 and cw and I click on SM0XX on 14253 DX4WIN
add SM0XX and SSB in respective field, the program also changes the
frequency to 14253 but after 2-3 seconds it changes back to 14040. When it
jump back the Follow radio box is ticked on the band map. The mode remains
on SSB.

If I turn the VFO dial on the rig the frequency changes accordingly in
DX4WIN and remains on the frequency set.

The same goes for changing mode on the rig, DX4WIN follows.

I can run my TS-590 over an USB A-B connection. I have it set up as second
radio and can start it within the program.

So my question is , why is not the frequency added in DX4WIN. What setting
have I missed?

Here are my settings. Using Windows 7 Professional
I use the Silicon Labs CP210x USB to UART bridge

I have the com port set to:
Bits per second: 9600
Parity: None
Stop bits: 1
Row control: None
It is Windos 7 Professional I use

The radio settings in DX4WIN are
ICOM 7600 _K2DBK, i.e. ON4AOI except the filter.
Address: 7A
Baud Rate: 9600
COM port: COM6
Poll rate (ms): 1000
Max tries: 6
DTR high and RTS high marked

I connect the the computer and the rig via an USB A and B cable

The settings in the radio are:
CI-V baud rate: 9600
CI-V Address: 7Ah
CI-V Tranceive: OFF
CI-V OutPut (for ANT): OFF
USB Serial Function: CI-V
