Enabling WinKey Speed Pot

 

For those using DXBase 2006 who would prefer to use the WinKey 

Speed Pot instead of DXBase's internal CW Speed Control, it can 

be accomplished as follows: 

 

In the DXBase WinKey Set-up:  

   Tools | Options | CW Options | WinKey Options | WPM Settings

 

Set Speed = 0 and Pot Range = 255

 

Set Min to the minimum speed you want on the Pot and Max to the 

highest speed.  For example, I use 10 and 40 for most purposes.  

 

Now, as long as you do not use the DXBase "Increase WPM" and 

"Decrease WPM" commands at the right end of the DXBase CW toolbar 

or at the bottom of the Output | CW Messages menu, WinKey's Speed 

Pot will be active - including for the DXBase CW Message buffers. 

Once you use the DXBase "Increase WPM" or "Decrease WPM" commands, 

WinKey will ignore the Speed Pot until it is reset.  

 

This "trick" is possible because Speed = 0 has a special meaning 

for WinKey ... it resets the keyer speed to that of the Speed Pot.
